Let's not forget that the USA has only ever won one war on its own. The American Civil War! WW1 and 2 were a global allied effort, Korea a stalemate, beaten pants down in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan a shambles. Their recent treatment of President Zolenski was utterly shameful. Trump doesn't seem to understand that America will need all the friends that it can muster in the coming decade. The USA will be very alone in a war against China if they have isolated and belittled their strongest and best allies. Vance, should just keep his mouth shut, because every time he opens it he shames America. While every time Trump his mouth, Putin comes out.
Compares US military history and foreign policy to other nations, arguing America needs allies and criticizing Trump/Vance's approach.

You wanna work “with” us because you can’t afford our tariffs I stand with President Donald Trump it’s not our job to make sure your economy can thrive that’s is why we are separate countries. …
You wanna work “with” us because you can’t afford our tariffs I stand with President Donald Trump it’s not our job to make sure your economy can thrive that’s is why we are separate countries. Donald Trump knows what he’s doing, sometimes people have to focus on themselves and their own country thriving and not worry about extending a helping hand to every other country. A real man wouldn’t sit up there crying about a tax, Man up Trudeau.
Compares Canada and US positions on tariffs and national interest, asserting that countries should prioritize themselves over international cooperation.

For all the folks watching and cursing on Indians let me tell you that 95% of those Indians you saw there in Brampton are Punjabis....it's because Punjab is a shit hole and has nothing left. …
For all the folks watching and cursing on Indians let me tell you that 95% of those Indians you saw there in Brampton are Punjabis....it's because Punjab is a shit hole and has nothing left.

Distinguishes between immigrant groups (Punjabis vs. South Indians) and compares their characteristics and motivations.

As a European I stand with Canada. I lived in the Us and many Americans are wonderful. However this administration has lost its values and soul. Canada and the E.U should work together closely. And why not join the E.U? Our values are the same. And We must be united against he great imperialists threats coming from Russia and, now, America. \nAs a consumer I decided to boycott American products whenever possible. I had planned to travel to America on vacation but I will cancel that for the next 4 years at least. I hope many will join us in the “boycott American products” movement?
Compares Canada/EU values favorably to the US, suggests EU membership, and calls for boycott action based on moral principles.
