Oh, make no mistake,, Trump doesnt care about phent. why would he care about an addict, or an overdose from a someone who doesnt vote,,, Stop it!

Why wasn’t Trudeau this mad when Biden shut down the keystone pipeline that impacted Canadians? Oh right democrat.

I'm ready to pull together with other Canadians! - Donald Trump is of course not a smart man but that would be dumb to say if you are a politician trying to contain a tarrif war. - (OMG, Wolf Blitzer grew up in Buffalo NY and spent summers at Crystal Beach. My oh my. He probably loved Irv Weinstein. Hope he liked watching Billy Van... if he watched CHCH TV back then.)

Oh Canada oh Canada I love you.

I am not a fan of PM Trudeau but on this occasion, I'm willing to flipflop. Oh, my goodness, it's so refreshing to hear a country leader speak a coherent sentence, a coherent thought structure, zero vanity tripping, berating opponents, finger-wagging, screeching accusations, tantrums. And then in a second language!!! Just because I'm not one of HIS fans, I am however a massive fan of Canada. I support Canada in this situation 100%. A trade war IS dumb, and even dumber with your closest ally and neighbor. Dumb and Dumber all in one go.... wowzah....so much winning?.

Oh no! Canadians be ware, your government is here to help. Watch out! This is the time you need to be scared. When you here the phase we the government is here to help, you run!

Responsible spending Trudeau.. Trump just called you out on it. Oh wait that's why you're out!

❤Oh Canada!

I support Canada ?? My family goes back to 1630 in Prince William County. Oh I’m white with blue eyes.

Oh no! We can't survive without Canada! Eh!

Hey Trudeau you still look like your dad Fidel Castro .. i thought you were stepping down.. oh wait thats the best quality of liberals is lying ????

He's in it for the Long Haul oh that's right he stepped down he's going to blow a whole bunch of smoke up Canada's ass and then he's going to walk away from all this

Oh this is what American journalists are like? I see it makes sense now

„We‘ll just produce it locally“\n„How do you produce natural resources locally?“\n„Oh… umm… we‘ll figure out a way!“

Oh is this what a sane, rational leader looks like? Cool, cool, cool. It's been a while for us here in the USA :(

Oh buddy, bad move...

Trump is more interested in submitting to the Russians… oh wait, no-according to him, it’s the Ukrainians who should surrender. Classic victim-blaming. Sounds like pure Trump logic.

Oh you can have all the invaders too.

??? Oh boy. Little Trudeau acting like a tough guy. Canada will come crawling. It's only a matter of time. Mexico? They're screwed too. Just wait and see.

OH HOG WASH AND CANADA HAS BEEN TAKING ADVANTAGE OF AMERICA FOR MANY YEARS NOW, WE ARE NOT SCARED

Oh the states are going to be in for a world of hurting.

8:12, oh, so now all of a sudden you pretend to give a shit about Canadians?! Trudeau, you're about as useful as a dug up body!!

The propaganda channel oh yesss

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

Oh justin, your so yesterday.

Oh, Canada ……?

Oh Justin, do your next broadcast in blackface for us, cute little son of Fidel Castro.

Oh Canada, I stand with you.

Oh please you don't care about your country Steph down and let a real leader deal with this

Trudeau is a a complete idiot! Way past time for you to be gone Mr. CASTRO, oh I mean Trudeau.

?????oh oh oh mr trudy?????

America first!\n Oh no now Canadians won’t be able to afford their 3rd Florida home. Bring it on we’ll see whose economy cracks first.

Oh. I forgot this is CNN ?

Is there a “Gold” immigration card for Americans to become Canadian??? Oh Canada, we admire and respect you and your leaders. We apologize for our spineless wonders.

Oh great, now Canada hates us. We're f*cked.

Uh oh... 50% tariffs for calling Donald stupid. He is a very sensitive guy, big mistake!

oh no!!!! 25% more for maple syrup??? what will we do?

Oh shut up governor. Buy other brands

Love that you are giving facts to all Trump’s bullshit reasoning behind his tariffs…oh how I miss the times we had someone in the White House that spoke so eloquently. Mr orange face is an embarrassment to this country.

Canada don't like u treaduh oh and im not fighting the usa Justin can do it good luck\nDork and cbc is a joke aswell .

Oh no! Where ever shall I buy a curling broom now!!!!? Or the worst cigarettes you've ever had. Guess I'll have to buy my maple syrup from VT now.

Oh my goodness, Justin Castro Trudeau, you hypocrite you should be charged with Treason against Canadians. You are a dictator you self you evil evil, young man and someday God’s gonna expose you for your evil.

Oh what a surprise, Trudeau is a tough guy and taking a atand knowing he will be out of office when the blowback comes. What a leader. What a hero.

Oh, you made your choice when you went and sat with all those Europeans that supported Zelensky

Trudeau is speaking to the American people. You need to speak to the orange moron and cronies. Oh that's right you can't because he is a closed minded bully. \n\nHey Orange man! You are only fooling your lackies. Everyone else sees what you are really doing. Setting up your buddies to run these systems you are man handling from the Ukraine.

Wow, you jerks voted for this! Where are those cheaper eggs and gas? Oh yeah and neutralizing less than 1 percent of our population, yes trans people.\nLike I said, you idiots voted for this! \nWe warned you MAGA folks for 9 years! 9 years.\nHope this is giving some white MAGA man a hard on!

Oh Mr Personality and Fairness. Dont you want to freeze some truckers accounts anymore for protesting your stupid rules. Go Blow somewhere else.

These comments are disappointing. All these Americans standing with other countries smh. Go live there! Nobody is forcing you to stay in America. Why don’t you actually start trying to help OUR country be better INSTEAD OF COUNTRIES!!! How can so many people LOVE that OUR taxes go to non Americans?. Or lining the pockets of the very politicians you all are listening to? Make it make sense. Oh wait, it all makes sense when you all have TDS. The elections are OVERRRRR, how are democrats going to survive the next 4 years? This is just getting started & as you can see, Trump always gets what he wants. No more sleepy joe & kackling kamala. Soon enough NO MO Trudeau!

oh my. one thing trumpton isn't is smart. isolate usa and let it trade with putin and its genocidal criminal brother in the middle east. we dont need usa it a third world dictator

Trumps own words, “Vote for me, you will never have to vote again!” \nThis one is showing up on several pages. Make up your own mind. \nThere is something rancid in America, a slow, creeping rot that smells like cold McDonald’s fries, aerosol hairspray, and the unmistakable musk of a country too sedated to recognize its own hostage situation. For years, the idea that Donald Trump was compromised by Russia was dismissed as paranoid fantasy—just another wild-eyed conspiracy theory, another overblown headline in the endless saga of American political dysfunction. \nBut now, two former Soviet intelligence officers—Alnur Mussayev and Yuri Shvets—are saying it outright: Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, groomed as an asset, and remains under Russian control to this day. \nAnd the worst part? He’s already back in the White House. \nThat’s right, America. You did it. You walked face-first into the banana peel of history, slipped, and fell straight into the arms of Vladimir Putin. Trump was kicked out in 2020, spent four years plotting his comeback, and now he’s returned, like a bloated, orange cockroach that just won’t die. The Kremlin’s favorite stooge is running the country again, and this time, he knows exactly how to stay in power. \nIf you think this is just another round of the Trump Show, you’re not paying attention. This isn’t politics anymore. This is treason. This is foreign subversion. This is a God forsaken coup in slow motion. \nLet’s break it down, nice and simple. \nAlnur Mussayev isn’t some Twitter conspiracy theorist with a tinfoil hat and a podcast. He’s the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, which means he knows exactly how Russian intelligence works—because he was part of the system. And what he’s saying should make every American’s blood run cold. \nAccording to Mussayev, Trump was identified, recruited, and compromised by the KGB in 1987 during his first trip to Moscow. They saw him for what he was: a narcissistic, greedy, attention-starved buffoon who could be easily manipulated. The KGB flattered him, promised him business deals, and planted the seeds of political ambition in his empty little head. And from that moment on, he was their man. \nBut Mussayev isn’t alone. Former KGB major Yuri Shvets said the exact same thing in 2021: Trump was cultivated by Soviet intelligence because he was an easy mark—too stupid to realize he was being played, too egotistical to care. They saw him as a useful idiot—a man who could one day be nudged into power, a walking, talking Trojan Horse for Russian interests. \nAnd now? The plan has worked. Trump spent four years in office weakening America from within, got booted out, and now he’s back for round two. \nIf you had told the American public in 1962 that a Soviet-backed asset would one day sit in the White House, they would have burned Washington to the ground before letting it happen. But today? Nobody seems to care. \nThe media treats this like just another wacky subplot in the never-ending Trump reality show. Congress is too busy fighting over meaningless culture war nonsense to do anything about it. And the American public? Exhausted. Numb. Checked out. Years of scandals—Russia collusion, Ukraine blackmail, classified documents, tax fraud, sexual assault, an attempted coup—have fried the country’s brain like an overcooked steak at Mar-a-Lago. \nTrump has done the impossible. He has committed so many crimes, so openly, so brazenly, that none of them matter anymore. \nAnd now, with Mussayev’s revelation that Trump is an active foreign asset, we have finally reached the point where the biggest political scandal in American history is met with a collective shrug. \nThis is how democracy dies—not with a bang, but with a goddamn eye-roll. \nThis is the part where the skeptics start clutching their pearls. “Oh, come on,” they say. “If Trump were really a Russian asset, wouldn’t there be more proof?” \nTo which I say: Are you blind, or just willfully stupid? \nLet’s go through the evidence, shall we? \nTrump spent his entire first term doing exactly what Russia wanted. He attacked NATO, calling it “obsolete” and threatening to pull the U.S. out. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into manufacturing dirt on Joe Biden, because weakening Ukraine helps one man and one man only: Vladimir Putin. He pulled U.S. troops out of Syria, handing power over to Russian forces. He picked fights with Canada and Europe while cozying up to dictators. \nEven now, in his second term, he is more openly pro-Putin than ever. He has made it clear that he will not protect NATO allies from Russian aggression. He is actively dismantling America’s alliances, just as Russia planned. And while Americans scream at each other over whether Target should sell rainbow t-shirts, Trump is quietly selling the country to the Kremlin. \nAt some point, you have to stop calling it a coincidence and start calling it what it is: treason. \nThe United States is running out of time. If Trump serves out this term without being removed, America as a functioning democracy is finished. \nThe media needs to wake up. Enough with the “Trump fatigue” excuse. This is not just another scandal—this is the single greatest infiltration of American power in history. Journalists need to dig into Mussayev’s claims, demand declassification of intelligence files, and treat this like the national emergency that it is. \nCongress needs to subpoena Mussayev immediately. His testimony must be public, and every document he has should be reviewed. If there is proof that Trump has been compromised since the 1980s, the American people need to know. \nThe Justice Department needs to stop pretending that Trump is just another politician. If there is evidence that the sitting president of the United States is working in Russia’s interests, he must be removed from office and prosecuted for espionage. \nAnd the American public? You have one last chance. This is not about Republican vs. Democrat. This is not about taxes, gas prices, or whatever nonsense outrage is dominating the news today. This is about whether the United States remains a sovereign nation, or if we spend the rest of the century as a Russian client state with a golf course. \nThe sheer volume of Trump's corruption, the blatant nature of his crimes, the mountain of evidence that should have ended his political career a hundred times over—none of it mattered. He survived it all, not because he was innocent, but because he drowned the country in so much scandal that nothing stuck. \nBut this time, it’s different. If Mussayev and Shvets are right, this isn’t just another chapter in the endless Trump circus. This is the culmination of a decades-long Russian intelligence operation to install an asset in the White House. \nThere is no coming back from this. If America lets Trump serve out this term without removing him, then the United States as a democratic republic is finished. The country won’t collapse overnight. There won’t be tanks in the streets. Instead, the destruction of democracy will happen in slow motion—buried under lawsuits, propaganda, and corruption so blatant that people stop caring. \nIf America lets this happen—if Trump is allowed to complete his mission—then Putin wins. The West crumbles. And the people who could have stopped it will look back, years from now, and wonder how they let it happen. \nGood night, and good luck. Because if people don’t wake up, America is going to sleepwalk straight into its own funeral.
