Trudeau is very well spoken and trump sounds like a bafoon

CNN is disgusted headlining Trudeau like he is amazing and defending Canada stop hating our country..Too many young kids have died from fentanyl poisoning because of these people why don’t you look a parent in the eye that lost a child and tell them what Trump is doing is wrong you would never you cowards

Don't lecture us American' s on a damn thing! U are damn clown & don't speak with such an unworthy sense of self. Anyone who would listen this ignorant fool & worse take anything he says seriously are as stupid as he is. And all u buffoons spewing remedial like this idiot is even pimple on trumps ass! What a embarrassing weak coward! And watch ur damn tome boy when u speak of our president like u are somehow all sudden some tough guy or in his league! Smfh

Trump admired Kim and Putin as he likes dictators, and he dream to become one of them. That is the reason why he distance him self from democratic alies.

trump is not world leader he is like a greedy small country politics

If you watch CNN ? you are part of the problem LOL check on WHO pays them to spin the narrative!\n\nWar? Dictator ? Those are some strong and exaggerated words. As a diplomat he should know better ? just protect the borders like a good neighbor and you won’t have any issues … I think the US will be ok. \n\nCanada ?? has been an open border, ask all your DoorDash and Uber drivers in the US where they are coming from !!!! They all say Canada… Indians, Turkish, Palestine, Hispanics… quit lying ?\n\nJust because he speaks gently doesn’t mean he ain’t full of ?\n\n“Donald” uhmm President Trump .. homeboy shows little respect … for the president the entire country chose.

Looks like America will have more Anti American sentiments not just from the Middle East. watch out America, Trump is working for Putin and he will tear your country apart. MAGA supporters don’t have that level of intelligence to comprehend what’s about to happen.

40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

It's hilarious they keep being flabbergasted about Trump doing things that their enemies want, because that's exactly who he is working for. He does not care about Americans or Canadians or anyone at all except his cronies and his group of Russian-led oligarchs, and making themselves all even richer than they already are off the backs of the working classes everywhere. He is working for the enemy, which is precisely why it looks for all the world like he's working for he enemy. Figure it out!

As an American, this is beyond embarrassing!!! Please know that not every American is like Trump….a majority of us aren’t!

Why is Trump in office in the first place? Even if Trump has the answer, why does he conduct business like that of a 3rd grade Hollywood clan? The world is in struggle mode, and everyone is divided significantly. This is a sad day!

I like how he switches to really simple English the moment he addresses Trump directly.

I have never been so ashamed to be an American ? It’s like Trump is trying to hurt as many innocent people as he can. He is abusing nice people like the Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau. He is hurtful to the Mexicans and immigrants as well. I was so angry with the way the Trump administration ganged up on and bullied the nice, strong Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. I loathe the Trump administration. Trudeau and Zelenskyy are vastly superior to Trump and everyone in his administration.

Looks like Trumps goal here is to bring Canada to its knees ( Trump is even trying to get Russian Aluminium to replace Canadian Alumininium) so he can make Canada go broke and beg to become the 51st state of the USA

As an American, I have never been so embarrassed by our so-called president. He’s a disgrace. He’s a vile human who should be in prison. Canada, we love you. We’re not all asshats like the infantile Trump.

last time he did it everyone complained but biden kept the tariffs and nobody complained signaling to trump that he was right, the real trick is to call it a trade war then they can both raise taxes on their citizens which is exactly what trudeau just did whilst making it look like he's st george off to fight dragons

Friends dont let illegal immigrants carry deadly drugs in to there so called friends home. We dont need friends, like that! We voted for strong leader! And Trump is our President Elect!

Seems this guy by the way he is talking should be both president of Canada and America as he dioesnt talk like the chaos president clown in America , cuz everytime another country speaks Trump just lies

Go after American retailers in Canada. Go after Walmart, Home Depot, Costco and Best Buy. We also have a plethora of American restaurants in Canada, Justin should tax them all. Don't give Canada to that lunatic Trump for free, fight dollar for dollar Justin.\n\nWe also use alot of American drilling tools, equipment and machines in oil and gas. We go after all these companies and put pressure on them. Their silence is a support for Trump!!\n\nFrom now onwards, Canada should reduce her relanance on America to a mere 20% or lower. Issues like this should inspire Canadian politicians to go global and seek partners worldwide.

It makes sense if the end game is Trump invades Canada and Mexico, just like Putin invaded Ukraine

Trump wants this he will be a dictator just like he wants. He plans To be Putin2.0

F@ck Trump! It’s like having a crazy Roman Emperor in charge of the USA ??

It look likes Trump is destroying the USA from within. This must be the big dream of all the opponents of the free countries..

Because of trump our country just make an enemy with our border country. The orange ugly face must go, yes I am talking about trump and his people. We are not and will not support people allied with dictatorship like putin.

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Trump is a fvcking embarrassment. Canada is like lil bro. They’re a peaceful people. We never have any problems with them. Our closest ally. Why the fvck is he punishing them like this?

There is not much to do. Trump is constantly lying to his people. He said again that American banks cannot go to Canada and that Canadian banks can go to the United States. Which is totally false. There are American banks in Canada. There are not many since they have to follow Canadian rules just like Canadian banks have to follow Canadian rules

Trump is the disappointment .... give us 25% . The good country is stable. And also about the drugs and ilegal alians ...is nothong to do with Canada. But Trump says so . And also say i love Canada, and you can clearly see on he's face looks like is one big enemy of Canada .. Trump playimg same and even more stupid game as 2018, and many American did suffer, and he's doing things again, going up all ready, but Trump promised to be down and even Ukraine War will end in one Day..... woow what the idiot

Where are all the MAGA supporters??? This thread is too reasonable and level-headed. Well, I guess they are losing steam. Trump is a bully and an embarrassment on the world stage as far as this US citizen is concerned. Where is Elon Mush? I used to have some respect for Elon, but jumping in bed with Trump is a mistake Mush will come to regret. I guess I need to protect my retirement investment portfolio - I think Trump will decimate it by destabilizing the stock market's confidence like this. sigh...

Trump want the division between the USA and all of our traditional long term allies. However, Trump is doing exactly what Putin desires. Trump only answers to Putin. People wake up and stop acting like Trump is not a communist dictator.

I can't bealive how dumb US liberals are, US literally has one of the highest reserve of oil and natural gas, US used to sell oil to Japan, India and many other countries when trump was last time in office but Biden distroyed that by banning the drill. 70% of import from canda to US is oil and natural gas which they don't need they just have to switch on those machines again which they already did and in few weeks they will not just ful fill their own need bul aslo start selling gas to Japan and India as trump promised in last meeting with them, and rest 20% import from Canda is electricity, they used to busy that electricity just to bypass the Paris climate aggrement of having green electricity, biden insted of building green electricity industry he choosed to buy those from Canada and last rest 10% left which is $15billion for economy like US this much money is peanuts and 30% tarrife on that will have nearly no impact.

Trafis = taxes. Trump is rising taxes, causing inflation, recession. Trump is the greatest crook. USA has to stop Trump. Americans are the 1 st victim of trump. He is making himself, musk, zuckerberg and all the mega rich more rich.\nThe normal American will be working slave to the neo nazi trump regime. A convicted crook, cheated on every wife he got, a pirate, a bully without friends. He is a low life. Vance a guy with colored hair and eyeliner, looks all the time like is is being potty trained .\nTrump got no deal with Putin. Putin does not listen to trump. It is a bluff. Trump is as bad as Putin. He is only interested to exploid Ukraine. \nAmericans you have to fight your worst and \n# 1enemy = trump and his boot lickers = neo nazis. The longer you wait, the more american families, veterans, economy, jobs have to suffer. Trup has no respect for Great Britain. He only would have liked to get his hands on the late Queens juwels.

A real leader No clowns ? like president Elon and vice president trump what a joke his going to sell the United States ?? of America to Russia ??

How many of you voted for Trump, click like.

Well spoken Justin. A slap like this is what Donald the DUMB TRUMP needed.

As non American ?? I like how trump deals with those clowns ?

Trump is mental and the folks supporting him are very uneducated. Look at them at rallies and interviews, they look like they’ve never got out of their caves let alone outside of the US ?

Did I read somewhere that 80% of the fertilizer America uses for farmers comes from Canada?\n\nI note that Canada stated they will give a targetted response at Trump friendly states Florida for ranges etc. Looks like America wants to go it alone.

This is what a REAL leader looks like. Trump is nothing but putin’s dog

Donald Trump is a big fake conservative. Never seen a conservative government behaving like this.

Trump wants to be a dictator like Putin and grow his Empire, he wants Canada as 51st state to grow his empire. That is what it’s about, not fentanyl.

Does Russian spies on a nuclear submarines in our nuclear facilities things to Donald Trump right now they're trying to destroy us they're trying to kill us! We have to stand up we have to impeach Donald Trump and JD Vance and remove them to someone like Utah senator Mitch ‼️‼️‼️??????‼️???

This is the result of bullying your good neighbor! Haist! Trump you'll gonna be trampled like a salt that loses saltness!

I’m with Canada on this matter. We don’t betray our friends like that. I will commit my support on this issue by using whatever “freedom of speech” I have and by inserting my opposing view in pro-trump videos that speak ill of Canada. Thank you Trudeau, and I am sorry.

Trumps a scourge to the planet..much like his buddy Putin

Really over 50 percent vote for this. It would be funny if It's not so sad in the same time. For now, it will work for the USA, but the boomerang will fly back. Your Partner realize now finally that the US is not trustful anymore. They need a bit of time to prepare but if it's done, America is isolated (ok Russia and North Korea will still like you). The world continue rotating, with or without the USA. But maybe It's what the American wants so it's fine. But Trump's territorial claims are a shame. Regards from Germany.

I wish America had a leader like Trudeau. Imagine a government that actually says it wants to help its citizens during this challenging time in the world. Versus Trump and Musk cutting government programs that help vulnerable people survive.

Why did Canadians dislike this guy so much before all this? Because some Russian trolls on social media disguised as Canadians told them to? That's how we got Trump! It seems like they learned from our mistake. I hope they did. Look, all over the world, things are tough, post pandemic. It's not just your country. You can be patient as left leaning leaders use data and expertise to get things running again...OR you can elect these far right NUTCASES, AND MAKE A MESS THAT IS IRREVERSIBLE! DON'T TRUST THE FAR RIGHT! YOU ARE NOT IN THEIR CLUB. THEY WORK FOR THEMSELVES AND THEMSELVES ONLY, AND WILL TELL YOU WHATEVER LIE YOU NEED TO HEAR TO GET INTO OFFICE.

It's about money. Specifically Donald Trump getting as much money as possible from this term. Putin likely told him to make sure to distance America from its allies, so that he can use the USAs military gizmos to expand his mission to take over Ukraine amd any other country he wants. All this in exchange for making him and his cronies filthy rich. Trump keeps dropping clues about the plan. Elon, created Doge to weaken the economy even further so that the USAs assest are devalued and he can officially the US oligarchy. He's been in talks with Putin, we've seen them together. So now this Trump Gold card, is a way in for more oligarchs from Russia specifically to sweep up the remaining industries at a fraction of what they used to be valued. Then the USA will be the western arm of Putins empire. Since he made sure to obliterate all friendly relationships the US had with the western world, the other countries won't do anything to help the US so as to avoid all out war. Trump will then walk off into the sunset as one of the richest, if not the richest, man on earth.

Wow, Trump is seething with jealousy right now. This guy is everything Trump is not, young, strong and articulate. Not a weak minded simp and boot licking Russian sympathizer. I, as an American that served, can only wish our leader with this kind of integrity and character. Sadly, what we have is the worst moron his followers, like the brainwashed dolts they are, voted him to the highest office in the land, responsible for the wellbeing of this country.\nWe are doomed as a country if we don't do something to stop the orange idiot!
