Donald doesn’t understand the concept of tariffs. He sounds dumb and everyone who doesn’t understand tariffs, please know we the consumer are the victims of the most dumbest decision.

That’s a real statesman and a real man! Trump and Vance are limp noodled wimps and are destroying our country! Dumb asses that voted for tRump/Vance or didn’t vote at all are dumber than a pile of ?

I don't think I've ever seen or heard Trudeau this angry before. Justifiably so. I hate that your government has done this but Canada will not back down. There is no real justification for these tarrifs other than Donald trying to take our land and resources. \n\nYou can think what you want about Trudeau, but he is absolutely correct. These tarrifs, this trade war against a long time ally, partner, and friend, is indeed a very dumb thing to do.

Putin is not allowing migrants rape gangs access to Canadian schoolchildren.\nThis cross dressers has destroyed Canada with unvetted migrants gangs. He's a dumb idiot leading Canada over a cliff.

Dear America, here you can see how a real Statesman argues! I love that speech of Trudeau. Alienating your friends that helped you secure your hegemony over the world for the past decades is very Donald Dumb.

And Mexico's President is about to release her own retaliative measures. Let's brace ourselves Americans, we the ones that didn't vote for this convicted felon. At least the dumb MAGAets will pay the high prices too.

What a Donald Dumb !

Trudeau’s speech, spot on. This CNN “analysis” says so much about why it’s lost its value. Quoting the Washington Post’s use of the word “dumb” does not make a speech harsh. Good lord. 47 reckless governance is harsh, cruel and intentionally damaging, not to mention the way he speaks daily. Get it right.

Canada ?? we are sorry about our dumb president. we are with you, i would love to live there. union member and home owner. proud father, husband, and american would like to say, my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time….

Donald Dumb

Our Dumb Chump person in the office of President is a complete idiot. Imgine the character of those that put him in office!

Dumb dumb diaper Don.

I was a republican. I voted for DT, but regret it. He's right, this is a dumb thing to do. If we alienate our allies, we won't have any when we need them.

Canada not the only country is mad, angry, disgusted by Donald Trump when the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said you're a smart man this is a dumb thing to do , Check out his face he's saying to Donald Trump you're not a smart man and you're dumb man . Bravo Trudeau as an American well said I stand with you and a large number of people in America stand with Canada.................................................

Trump is a very dumb !

Trudeau isn't dumb in stating this bluntly to 'Donald'. Trump needs to get the message (esp. by mass protest from his hopefully former American voters/supporters) just how dumb these US tariffs really are - how they'll cause inflation and stock market collapse the world over. And Trump's aligning himself with the US's manipulative, deceitful enemy Russia is because Trump has been laundering Russian Oligarch's money for decades (from forced prostitution and enslavement, drugs, and small arms sales to terrorists) to finance his real estate empire, ever since his 6 bankruptcies made him a bad risk for US lenders.

Dont understand why trump is messing with canada, its actually fucking dumb. Trump talking about ww3, if America dont stop everyone will be against us. Drugs coming through different states from mexico to make it to Canada not from canada into the United States.

To all the Magidiots in America voting for Trump was very dumb thing to do.

Trudeau has the full backing of the UK. I pray that the next prime minister takes the same stance as Trudeau. Trump is a dumb tosser who is hell bent on playing Putins fiddle.

Trump will have to give in or back peddle on tariffs. He's too dumb to figure what tariffs will do to the American people but was probably talked into this by other MAGA politicians as they are pretty damn ignorant.

Hey Little Donnie,take note! This is what a leader looks and sounds like. Note how he behaves! \nBTW, he’s not orange, and flailing his hands around like a dumb Asss!\n\nAmerican here from Nashville TN!

Donald it's dumb what you're doing the dumbest ever

The us relationship isn’t just deteriorated between them and Canada \nIt is the same for any other country in the world just now \nThe US doesn’t have a genuine friend now anywhere other than Russia and North Korea \n\nFrankly, I hope Trump continues his stupidity and it kills the US because the only way to demonstrate to the immense dumb electorate that supports Trump is for his own idiocy to hurt them. We don’t have time to try to educate them now. These people are an equal mix of ignorance, racism and entitlement. \n\nI’m in france and I’ll be honest, if I see or hear a US national (and we can figure out who is Canadian and not) then they will get no help from anyone here. \n\nThe US i grew up admiring as a kid in the U.K., the us I subsequently worked and lived in, the us people I worked with globally … all gone\nAnd frankly, it is the fault of the American electorate

No Trump isn’t a smart guy . He’s dumb !

Dumb dumb

why this guy leaving Canadian politics so early rather this is dumb to do ???

Maga people are dumb aha

UK here … go Canada full support . All decent Americans now need to gather and get this disturbed dumb Donald OUT once and for all.

What is the purpose of showing PM Trudeau in his press conference if we can't hear him? These CNN commentators are paraphrasing endlessly what he said, while cutting off his voice. Are we so dumb that we have to be served a rehash while being deprived of the real thing? \n Maybe CNN is trying to explain things to MAGA voters; why the effort? They would'nt watch CNN anyway!

Let's call it exactly what it is: the orange clown is doing this dumb thing to please his master Putin. Fentanyl is just an excuse, he has NO intention to cooperate with allies and he doesn't give a hoot about Americans either

Is sad that we Americans can tell how dumb the president is but Canada can. They are smart.?

As an American I think I’m right to say most of us are on Canadas side. Glad to finally see a great leader like Trudeau call Trump “dumb “!

Why does it sound like Trudeau Is totally dumbing down his vocabulary for donald?????

calling trump 'smart' reflects how dumb trudeau is.....

We be aight remember when we suffer Canadian will starve for sure this fool is disgustingly stupid and dumb he is talking about dictatorship he forgot what he did few years back to the agricultural sector for protesting/going on strike he been the almighty Canadian aka the big honcho he decides to punished everyone frozen ? all their assets including bank accounts not counting he took Canadian second amendment ?

Dumb Canadian president

Trump is too dumb to understand arguments - instead do a deal with the EU and Mexico

Trudeau I wish you were our president instead of the dumb sh*t head that we have! You made an agreement with Trump then he turns and stabs you in the back. That is what he planned to do to Ukraine. The drugs are made in the USA and sold all over . We know this how ever Republikkkans have to have someone to blame other than their own children that are buying and using the drugs.

There is no reason for Trudeau to be even as polite as he was (Trump is, in fact, dumb), considering that Trump continually calls the Prime Minister “Governor Trudeau” as a taunt, meaning that in Trump’s mind, Canada is already a state of the USA, not a sovereign nation.

Correction: Donnie is a VERY dumb guy, in spite of what the Wall Street Journal says.

Trum is simply dumb, what a man.

Can you shut up and let us here the questions/answers??? I hate these dumb as commentators!!!

Donald Dumb is making China and Russia great again?????

Stop every drop of Canadian oil and gas exports to the US now, tell Trump he will be crippled, and more to come. It’s more than dumb Trump , it’s psychotic Trump

Y'all Canada going to put tariffs on USA really y'all still dnt get it right you dumb Canadian Trudeau the reason Trump put a tariffs again let me explain myself it's because of Cartel's for stoping crossing fentanyl from your border if you dnt stop from y'all part of the bargain of letting Cartel's crossing drugs n trafficking from ur country to USA country ok

Trump is a mentally deranged idiot he is not friends with anyone but other dictators cuz that's what he wants to be he has said it and people have heard it yet the dumb people of the United States think oh the orange man in office is great.\nHey Canada you got the room for a family at 7:00 with three dogs and some cats because I will gladly become a Canadian citizen I am ashamed to be an American right now and I do not agree with what Trump is doing and yeah help

After trump is done destroying the US and selling everything off to the highest bidder I hope Canadians consider absorbing Minnesota into your country. We love you here! Also, you don't have to lie about trump's intellegence. He's dumb as a stump. Thank you, Trudeau, for your leadership.

Yeah I’m sorry but he calls for Trump to be civil and calls him dumb and calls him Donald? Canada is about to see fun times.

Donald Dumb suks

Trump is not smart! He is a dirty and dumb Bastard!!!
