CNN call it what it is A Fair Trade War...

So he calls our president “donald” and you guys at cnn call him “president”?

I do not know if tariffs or Trump's actions are the correct thing to do. But why can't the USA do 25% tariffs, if Canada has 65% tariffs on the USA? Why is Canada demanding the USA support them? Someone please explain it to me. And Trudeau could have picked up the phone and called Trump, this speech was not meant to solve anything. What is so brilliant except to heighten rhetoric and tension? Someone needs to be a grown up but going on CNN and insulting Trump isn't the way.

I wonder if this was the same type of speech he gave when he seized the bank accounts of those farmers and workers that had a peaceful protest, remember that. Look at him trying to pander to the uneducated, brainwashed, CNN junkies. When they give the super long explanation about this and that and little more of this and a little more of that, means they are desperate and reaching. Its funny I read some of the comments from so called American Veterans stating that they stand with this or that, but not your own country...Think about that. I am also retired military.

What a speech! And no teleprompter. This man has a brain, unlike others so called ' political figures '.\n❤\nGlad CNN didn't cut him (at least the English part.)

PUTIN PUTIN PUTIN CNN HAS NO CREDIBILITY CALL THEM OUT

That's hilarious how CNN has adopted a loser PM of a third world country to be it's faint beacon of their version of Democracy. \n \nCanada is a colony of the UK. It's not a Democracy. \n \nIn this day and age of freedom and independence, and respect for human rights, Canada and the UK governments should be ashamed that colonialism is still their guiding principle. \nI find that ridiculous that CNN does not see the hypocrisy of Canada and the UK leading the call for continued Ukraine independence. \n \nIs this slavish relationship the attraction for CNN and it's ignorant presenters? Isn't CNN the least bit ashamed they admire slavery in the 21st century and that they are giving voice to colonialists?

Justin Trudeau calling Trump his first name. CNN reporter: “Harsh name”.. lol.. CNN also scared of Trump.

CNN, why are you not calling out Trump's lies? In 2024, less than two tenths of one percent of fentanyl entering the US in 2024 crossed the US-Canadian border. This was NEVER about fentanyl. This is about Trump financing his billionaire tax cuts buy imposing huge sales taxes on American consumers. It's a stealth tax increase tha.t is targeted at low and middle income Americans. Trump is a liar, a crook, and a moron, a rapist, and a traitor. Every line you guys utter should underscore those facts. If you can't do your job, then STFU and shutter your offices. You are of no value to anyone but the criminals in the White House.

Imagine a candian prime minister speaking openly about hostile actions by americans and cnn calls it anti-americanism...

When even CNN calls it dumb…

This is called directly speaking? CNN is no wonder fake news.

It's not the uSA it's Trump and his cronies. Putin is no more a murderous dictator, than GEnocide Joe or Trump. CNN is the mouthpiece for USA imperialism. CNN lies and is biased against Palestine, drooling support for the illegal occupation that calls itself Israel. Don't work with Trump, destroy Trump. LOL Trump is NOT a smart guy, he is a narcissist and liar, criminal and gas lighter. He is trying to run the USA like a business, cutting off citizens from healthcare and social security. Trump is a criminal and there is only one end for him. JAIL

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

All my respect goes to Trudeau, who remained apologetic to the citizens of both countries throughout his speech. SHAME ON CNN for calling it Anti-Americanism !!! Trump picked this fight and let's not forget that ! And for NOTHING. another embarrassing moment for legacy news media that just proves either how dumb or how corrupt most are.

Hey CNN.. Canada hasn't even called their elections yet... maybe only next fall

This guy is absolute idiot. America doesn’t need Canada. Canada needs the USA. This guy is a communist. Trump is trying to stop an endless war with casualties and this clown is trying to compare it to tariffs. And who is watching this clown show called CNN THE FAKE NEWS CHANNEL. Lol.

Don’t panic as you tune in and read this shit show called news, I’m listening to a foreigner on talking on CNN, Trumps is only been in 100 days, don’t believe there fear mongering stand strong those who were born here and love this country.

CNN and Justine a perfect match ???? and I’m Canadian- this guy is a thief and a crook and a SELLOUT freedom of speech killer and a so called feminist ???? as said perfect match

It’s really annoying that CNN continues to babble on instead of letting Trudeau finish his press conference and then proceed with their responses. Our country is in the hands of a madman along with Musk and other cowardly Republicans who are in office. For all of those who voted for Trump, wait till energy and other costs rise, but it’s a shame we will all suffer as a result. Canada is our friend I am ashamed right now to call myself an American.

I will not listen to MSNBC or CNN or any stations tonight. I will be watching all of my James Bond movies and other movies. I would not waste my time listening to insults from this person. With a so-called friend like Vladimir Putin and Elon Musk does not make you smart. ?

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

Hey CNN - Trudeau does NOT speak for Canadians! He is a traitor that works for a private corporation called the WEF which is owned by the white supremacy Schwab family.

And CNN and other US news outlets, why are you so hesitant to declare what is happening is a full on COUP? It is time to start calling it what it is, before you are forced to bend the knee and only report the propaganda approved by your dictator. It is a coup, you're losing the country.

AntiAmerica CNN calling that blistering lol. God CNN and MSNBC cannot be shut down fast enough

Thank you, CNN, for airing our Prime Minister's speech in full, without interruption. We are not a perfect country but I am grateful to have a sane leader who isn't a bully, and doesn't have to resort to childish name-calling to portray 'strength.'

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

CNN is so trash news. Did they even listen to what this so called leader even said?

2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n?

So funny how these clwns in the comments have no idea what they are talking about.\nTrudeau is also corrupt to the core, he attended Fidel Castros funeral, cause hes his son.\nIronic that a communist sympathizer, goes to a brutal dictators funeral and goes out in public and calls others dictators?\nhaha\nAh wait this is CNN, which only the dumbest people watch.

Unfortunately, those who need to hear these words don't watch CNN. Fox will probably just report that Trudeau admitted to allowing fentanyl into the USA and that he dared call POTUS by his Christian name.

I think Trudeau missed the memo on what reciprocal tariffs mean! By the way we don't need Canadas energy when they Say they're going to so-called turn off the energy to America that means literally nothing five minutes of research will tell you that the United States does not need Canadas energy! Absolute empty threat!\n\nBy the way to anybody in the comments section that doesn't know what they're talking about and just listens to cnn so far these tariffs have secured 1.7 trillion US dollars in just three months brought manufacturing back to the United States honda is now leaving their location in Canada and building in the United States same with American car manufacturers in Mexico. \n\nWe won and I find this so funny you guys are flipping out we have socalled Americans joining Canada's side just because they're anti Trump. absolute clowns!

These comments are disgusting. I’m joining the navy to fight for HUMANITARIAN RIGHTS, period. All people. I don’t care what someone calls themselves, why put energy into displacing human beings?! As a black woman, I’ve never felt threatened by human beings discovering their individualized truth. It does not put me in danger. What puts me in danger is the fact that human beings body parts become political. It’s disgusting to think that someone’s sex organs is a topic on CNN in 2025?

Mass entry???? It's called invasion, CNN!

CNN is owned and operated by Democrats 100% they won't hire a single republican they're so biased. But they want to call out the military for being biased BULLSHIT

Thos CNN so Called Journalist is Highly Annoying and Disqusting

There are immigrants in the USA, and then there are ILLEGAL immigrants in the USA, (Two different groups of people) and CNN is deliberately misleading their viewers, by calling them 'immigrants' when they are criminals that deliberately broke the law when crossed the USA border illegally. THAT is why they are being treated like criminals... because they are! (It's that simple folks.)

Indian “migrants”!? You mean ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. Calling them “migrants” is naked propaganda. FF sake CNN, are you utterly blind to how this feeds Trump’s narrative?

It’s called dei very sick cnn you don’t learn do you ?????

Funny how cnn called Trump a racist when he called this an invasion

Disgusting!! They can't define what a woman is and they call themselves Trans woman!!!! CNN, Demoncrats and libs have become deplorables!

President Trump is correct 100% and all CNN has is its own predictable opinions. The dems favorite rush to lib courts will not work either. The dems should have never pushed this onto our military. Biden wasted millions on this so called medically necessary surgery. What gets me though is some church people and catholics and muslims still vote dem.

Government in no way shape or form should pay for these ridiculous transformations as you call it. There’s only two genders, male and female. Of course, CNN would produce content like this. It’s expected.?

Simply put and for all these reasons…CNN and MSM hoaxsters\n\nElon Musk Nazi Salute Hoax\nThe All-White Trump Party Hoax\nSpringfield Bomb Threat Hoax\nTrump Called for Liz Cheney to Be Executed Hoax\nViolent Crime Down Under Biden/Harris Hoax\nArlington Cemetery Hoax\nKamala Was Never America’s Border Czar Hoax\nRussia Collusion Hoax\nHands Up, Don’t Shoot Hoax\nJussie Smollett Hoax\nCovington KKKids Hoax\nVery Fine People Hoax\nSeven-Hour Gap Hoax\nRussian Bounties Hoax\nTrump Trashes Troops Hoax\nPolicemen Killed at Mostly Peaceful January 6 Protest Hoax\nRittenhouse Hoax\nEating While Black Hoax\nBorder Agents Whipping Illegals Hoax\nNASCAR Noose Hoax\nGeorgia Jim Crow 2.0 Hoax\nTrump Assaulted Secret Service Agents and Grabbed Steering Wheel of Beast Hoax\nMAGA Assaulted Paul Pelosi Hoax\nCOVID Lab Leak Theory Is Racist Hoax\nHunter Biden’s Laptop Is Russian Disinformation Hoax\nJoe Biden Will Never Ban Gas Stoves Hoax\nCOVID Deaths are Overcounted Is a Conspiracy Theory Hoax\nMass Graves of Native Children in Canada Hoax\nTrump Killed Japanese Koi Fish Hoax\nTrump Told People to Drink Bleach Hoax\nHamas Hospital Hoax\nIf Reelected, Trump Will Execute People Hoax\nThe 900,000 Kids Hospitalized with Coronavirus Hoax\nDozens of Environmental Hoaxes\nThe Alfa Bank Hoax\nLibs of TikTok Murdered Non-Binary Teen Hoax\nAaron Rodgers Sandy Hook-Truther Hoax\n‘Bloodbath’ Hoax\nBiden ‘Sharp-as-a-Tack’ Hoax\nIowa Poll Hoax

Hey CNN, what happened to my girl Maggie Haberman? Just out of curiosity. Where is she? A lot of journalists are tapping out. I know she is a commentator but still..., where is she? Is she fired? Or did she called the quits?

CNN call for the Grounding USAF F35 Program January 28th 2025 at Eielson Air Force Base > 100 Million Dollar USAF [ F-35 CRASH ] Will Now Exceed $2 Trillion As the Military Plans to Fly It Less. he F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter is the Department of Defense’s most ambitious weapons program and plays a crucial role in DOD’s ability to meet current and future U.S. national security goals. At the same time, the F-35 has been plagued by mounting costs and delays resulting in what some have called a staggering price tag of more than $2 trillion over several decades. \nDOD is pursuing a $16.5 billion modernization effort that will provide the F-35 with new capabilities through both hardware and software upgrades.

Time for our military to stop the invasion ? the trash mainstream media like CNN likes to call it something else ??

CNN: \n\nThese are migrants. Not illegal immigrants. That’s how CNN will call it from now on.\n\nColombia and USA used to have great relationship with agricultural benefits.\n\nThe price of many goods like coffee will rise. \n\nWork force is now adversely affected.\n\nTrump misspelled Colombia into Columbia.\n\nThe inhumane treatment by the government will leave a bad impression on USA people and everyone around the world.

CNN stop being bias—— why aren’t they reporting that this was already resolved with 39 mins of the tariffs being announced? The president of Colombia even offered his plane to transport these illegals and why is CNN calling them undocumented when they are illegal “criminals” ? They are trying to sell you the idea that what trump is doing here is bad

This is why they are called fake news folks! The communist socialist Colombian President folded already!! CNN, MSNBC and the other fake news media will continue to be fake news. Amazing, that people still watch these fools! Blacks for Trump!! MAGA!!
