Trump and Maga are like any crazy regime, absolutely full of magical thinking and not based in reality. So 2+2 = 6 and if you don’t agree, you hate America. Average Americans are expected to believe that a bunch of billionaires and companies that have been robbing them blind for 40 years will now have their backs because they are actually in government instead of just pulling the strings from the sides. Or because they trigger the right people on the Internet. . I also hate how every leader in the world has to pay some kind of false reverence to Trump even though they all know he’s nuts out of some kind of decorum. Just want somebody with balls to get up and say fuck him and fuck his lunacy. And shove your decorum up your arse because Trump doesn’t have any. It’s about time you realise what you’re dealing with and pull the gloves off. Playing nice and nice and reasonable is only playing into his hands.

That’s right but he never play fair!

Land of the free? Home of the brave? Not with President Musk and Vice President Trump playing with people’s lives and futures.

Aww poor guy finally has to play five and take

The whole world knows Putin is playing Trump.

I believe that Trump & Putin have a plan to dominate the world with Putin taking Europe and Trump taking Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panana, aka the Americas. What part China & North Korea play in Asia, I don't know. But they look to be inching in this direction!

This tariff war makes no sense. Trump is an evil idiot. The Musk -Trump administration is really trying to destroy the quality of life for most Americans, probably to force us into destitute situations that they and their cronies can exploit.\nAlso, Trump is playing jnto Putin's hands so easily.

Trumpaloonatic is hurting the U.S purposely. Even those who r right there by his side. He dont care bout u he needs u to manipulate the ppl under u so they do the same to the ones under them and do forth. Melania... she has it coming. The FB guy, he has it coming, all those who once made this FK crybaby feel bad or shamed him infront of camaras... u have it coming. Why? How? Hes big jack horner... he plays games but he doesnt get his way he makes u pay. He is paying back for being a failed business man in the U.S. Because he has failed as a business man, he has made it to where he is now because he is a very successful con artist, a swindler and a scammer. Hes a sneaky snake who has the U.S under his armpit squeezing every single $ out of it. This FKR needs to be stopped.

He sounds very manipulative. And like he's having a temper tantrum. He can miss me with trying to play on people's emotion and act like Canada cares for Americans. Canada doesn't even want this man. All you trump haters and those who don't do research and believe the media are desperately trying so hard to see light and positivity where it done exist. What can anyone take away that America doesn't have right now. 70% of the population is damn near homeless and the avg job pays 14$ a hr. We already can't afford food way before trump got elected if our president thinks this is best then trust him\nWe want to much quick solutions. It's going to take a fight to make America great again ❤ time is everything. You can't expect no one to wave a magic wand and undo 12 yrs of democratic chaos. We have people that don't understand their gender. For years America has been every other countries sugar daddy! ENUFF. I SAY MORE TARRIFS❤

Trump is standing on business! ? no more free handouts. He’s putting America first ? ? ?. The adults are back in charge. We sat back and let the clowns play for 4 years. Your experiment is over now. Democrats nearly destroyed our country. We will save it for you. You'll enjoy the win in spite of your whining and delusions. You're welcome. Now, go color or something. Daddy has work to do.

Playing the victim eh? You acknowledged that America and Canada are biggest friends and allies but when you were asked to secure your side of the border you declined America’s request. You have problems in locking your gates but you don’t have problems in locking bank accounts of CANADIAN TRUCK DRIVERS.\nGuuuurrllll, you already quit as the PM STFU.

This idiot is playing checkers and trump is playing go fish. 2 absolute morons. This clown still thinks this is over fentanyl……\n It comes from the USA. This is not over fentanyl Trump wants Canada. He wants its resources. He wants its control over the arctic shipping lanes. Just like he wants Greenland for that same reason. Just like he wants panama for that shipping lane. It’s a power grab.

We China like: Calm down bro, Look at what I am facing to, you guys looks like children playing around

I don't care how much you guys sing or what tune you guys rather play as long as Americans will be addicted to illegal drugs the illegal drugs will always find their way into united states and as long as illegal drugs is get rich quick for some illegal drugs will always find their in united states they huff and puff and keep huffing and puffing the illegal drugs will continue to make their way into united states very simple supply and demand

Trump is a G , Trump wants a even playing field with all countries ripping off America due to them taking advantage of a corrupt , incompetent Biden administration. Trudeau doesn't practice what he preaches. Its alright when they do it, its a problem when Trump does it.

You need to leave. You took away our freedom of speech and expression. CNN is a big lie. People in Canada didn’t forget what and how bad you treated us. Now you are playing trump card . You made Canadians poor . All you do is lie. Trump is working hard for his citizens and what about you.? Just get out and let’s have a better leader. I can’t believe I voted for you.

The only reason the US imports so much from Canada is because the Democrats stopped production of all the materials Canada supplies the US because of their green policies. \nBut President Trump is reopening the gas, oil, electricity and agriculture production, so they won’t need to import so much from Canada, in fact probably reducing it substantially. \nProbably what will happen now is discussions on various goods to become equal on terms of cost in both countries levelling the playing field.

commie news network, we don't care. you'd think you've learned your lesson with your pathetic ratings or the spankings you've received with just pure statistics, and yet you continue to play lefty games...canada will fold shortly, we don't need what they have.

Trudeau’s Legacy: massive non stop spending, massive debt, refuse to protect the border and carbon tax. Impeding election because he thinks he’s a saviour and has done nothing wrong!\n\nNow he’s playing a big guy. Good luck!

He really doesn’t wanna play with Trump Trump a businessman that’s what America has become a business so it’s only fair if you’re gonna charge 25 I’m gonna charge you 25 right that makes sense

This week beta clown playing tough is laughable. Shut up Trudeau and leave, nobody cares what you have to say.

Trump was right for starting the tariffs. Canada did not play fair to begin with.

Love Trump or hate him, you don't want to play chicken with him, you'll loose!

Trump don't care He don't care about that. That's just the Trojan-horse. So you don't pay attention of what he's doing. He's just hurting, he's gonna hurt. The Americans first and definitely never going to get Canada. Because if we gotta do World War 3. Come on, we'll play the game. We'll put our cards on the table. Trump

Canada’s 25% Tariffs? A Win for American Businesses in the Long Run\n\nAt first glance, Canada slapping a 25% tariff on U.S. goods might seem like a negative for America. But in reality, this move could actually work in our favor by making the U.S. economy stronger, more self-sufficient, and less dependent on foreign markets.\n\t1.\tBoosting American Manufacturing & Production – When Canada makes U.S. goods more expensive with tariffs, American businesses have a huge opportunity to shift focus to domestic markets and new trade partners. This could bring more production back home and reduce reliance on Canada.\n\t2.\tEncouraging Trade Diversification – The U.S. isn’t limited to Canada. If they want to play hardball, we can expand exports to other countries with fewer trade restrictions. Canada makes up about 15% of U.S. exports, but the rest of the world is wide open. This is a chance to diversify and strengthen our economy.\n\t3.\tMaking Canada Pay More for U.S. Goods – Tariffs don’t just hurt exporters—they also raise costs for Canadian consumers. If Canada wants American products, they’ll end up paying more or have to settle for alternatives that might be lower quality or more expensive from other countries.\n\t4.\tStrengthening America’s Negotiating Position – If Canada wants to raise tariffs, that gives the U.S. even more leverage in future trade talks. The U.S. economy is far larger and more powerful than Canada’s, and in the long run, they need us more than we need them.\n\t5.\tReducing America’s Trade Deficit – If fewer goods are exported to Canada, that means more products stay in the U.S. This helps lower dependence on foreign markets and could even stabilize prices for American consumers.\n\nBottom Line: Canada’s Move Hurts Them More Than It Hurts the U.S.\n\nIf Canada wants to put tariffs on U.S. goods, let them. In the long run, it pushes America to be more self-reliant, strengthens our industries, and forces Canada to pay the price for their own policies.\n\nAt the end of the day, America has the stronger economy, better resources, and more trade options—Canada needs U.S. trade more than we need theirs. If they want to make American goods more expensive, they’ll feel it a lot more than we will.

F that POS! Time for the USA to level the playing field in trade. Lets go!

anti americanism? wtf did you expect? playing the victim like always

Trudeau! Nobody likes you. You’re done. We want to vomit when you speak. You are a disgrace to this Country. You’ve ran our country into the gutter, killing hundreds of thousands of Canadian citizens with your reckless policies and corrupt agenda’s. Stop playing the victim you wounded narcissist. Canada deserves these tariffs. This is all on you. I pray daily that this country will be saved. The light keeps getting brighter as we inch closer to that election! Thank god for Pierre Poilievre!! And we love you Donald Trump!

What if, The reason whyTrump is so eager to please Putin because Russia played a key role in helping him win the presidency ? manipulating the system and shaping public opinion through a massive online troll campaign and widespread disinformation? If that’s the case, he might feel indebted to Putin, starting with his actions on Ukraine, then moving on to lifting sanctions on Russia, even if it means harming U.S. allies in the process.hmm

He got played out! Look at his face. It shows it all! As a result, the Canadians are played out!

Donald Trump is a Russian asset crashing the US on purpose so American and Russian oligarchs can buy up all of the shares of all of the major companies for pennies on the dollar and turn the USA into a Russian-style Duginist oligarchy and kleptocracy.\n\nThey are doing everything to you that they claimed that the Democrats were trying to do to you. They are playing out the ultimate plan of “you will own nothing and you will be happy” except they don’t care about you being happy, they’re just going to make you poor and that’s the end of it.

Trump is not being played by putin he is just being obedient to his superior

Trump could never speak so clearly and informational as he just did. He just wants to play golf

Of course Trumps been played by Putin,is Putin calling in Trumps loans

Follow the $$$ trail between Trump & Russia. Also between Elon & Trump. Qui pro quo...he who pays the piper, plays the tune.

You should double the percentage. 25% with his 25% it's like playing games

Honestly, Trump isn’t played by Putin. He is intentionally supporting Putin.

Canada and Canadians you're the luckiest bunch on the face of this earth. If trump didn't mess things up this early you might have elected maple maga and bonjour disaster. This trump blunder was a blessing in disguise. Never ever play with your cherished liberties and democracy by giving control of it to fascist leaning political party. Go Canada❤

Do you really think that Trump doesn’t understand that he is being “played” by Putin?? Seriously? Trump is working for Putin and gets paid to do this.

OK people, remember the last 9 years. He is the same guy who has ruined the country. Go ahead vote Liberal and the lies and graft and waste continue. He is an actor playing his role. No substance behind him. He is still the most hated and inefficient leader we have ever had.

Hmmmm.... If this isn't going to hurt Canada at all and only hurt the US (ie helping Canada) then why is Trudeau so upset? I think I'm gonna let this one ride out and see how things play out. Trump is a brilliant businessman as is Musk and they understand economics like no other. I am thinking there is more to this than what Trudea is saying.

Im an American, but I won't listen to a Canadian who played blackface and opposes freedom of speech. Keep the drugs in your own country. By the way, i thought you resigned or were voted out. Can some of you Canadians help me out with this?

Canada has taken advantage of weak American trade policies for decades. Now that we’re evening the playing field Canada is pissed that their gravy train has come to a halt.

Yall are mad because America wants to play fair now, you're an ally not a state womp womp dont be mad when Americans prioritize their needs first. Tarrifs will make the lifes of all Americans better in the long run aka less taxes. Our country has been depleted and its time we woroked on ourselves. Prime example California? hole.

War criminals playing drama

So you telling me that because Trump put tariffs in play, Canada in an uproar if it’s such an issue cut all ties with the USA and broker a deal with another country.

This is the way you handle a Bully; don't play the Bully's game. Our corrupt government has been corrupt since the beginning of our country and has had our Troops in 22 wars and our Troops are living with half their bodies, missing limbs and other disabilities our corrupt government has betrayed them and has sat on the sidelines watching the Gangsterville Enterprise aka White House say how they want to take their benefits. I care for my bedridden brother and have been caring for him for 5 years and I have never asked our corrupt government for compensation for caring for my brother. The corrupt government has kissed the ring and has lost their testicles with those damn black dresses. It's time take them for and do their jobs. We have a Consultation that was written decades ago to save us from this government corruption, it's time to stop the Shit Show and get our country back; we will be destroyed because Evil, Greed and Revenge never wins. United we stand and in God we trust amen ❤??

Any American business thinking about jumping into the Russian market is playing Russian roulette—except every chamber’s loaded. Putin’s already made it clear he’ll jail Americans whenever it suits him, and yet Trump seems determined to push U.S. interests into that trap.\n\nWhich brings me back to the bigger question—what exactly does Putin have on Trump? I get that Trump’s got the moral compass of a reptile hunting for its next meal, but even his own former foreign policy advisors—Bolton, Tillerson, Kelly—have all admitted they can’t quite explain his deference to Putin. I’m not one for conspiracy theories, but damn, at what point do we stop pretending this isn’t deeply suspicious?

There Canada pm. About happened after Ukraine we being suffer high tax high prices all teachers and medical don't extra play all grocery food price becoming more more higher now

I thought this knucklehead resigned. Canadians now stand with this dictator because of his propaganda? He's playing ya'll.
