Trump truely is a master negotiator, who else could have come up with the genius strategy of: Make your closest allies and trading partners hate you.
Don’t take this as defense of trump, but it is crystal clear that he doesn’t give a shit about US. He clearly is trying to destroy it. It no longer looks like incompetence like in first term, but like a pure malice, he isn’t even trying to hide it anymore.
He doesn’t have to hide it anymore. He isn’t going to win another election, he will either not be president anymore or he will be dictator for life.
I don’t know if I buy that because it would mean he was doing something highly competently which I don’t think we’ve seen evidence of otherwise.
It is much easier to destroy than build something. I’m sure putin is also telling him what to do.
For example he recently suspended military aid to Ukraine which will result in deleting of anti missile defense. Well, but also in January Russia changed strategy when attacking civilians making them require more missiles. Looks like putin knew this would happen 2 months earlier.
trump was quite ambiguous about Ukraine until Gabbard was confirmed, I think the change was even the same day. Gabbard now has access to all our intelligence.
That’s a good point, I was thinking the same thing regarding your first point but I’m so bitter I couldn’t even give him that.
Boo fucking hoo. Like these tariffs aren’t gong to affect us either. I hope this’ll be a wake up call for americans who voted for him. I’m thinking about all those farmers in the mid-west and popular vacation destinations down south like Florida.
So far it looks like those tariffs are used to making killing on the stock market. Trump announce them, stock falls, he and his friends purchases them at the low and then postpones tariffs. And repeat.
At the same time they are making money trump is still ruining alliances like putin wanted.
What about me? An American who DIDN’T vote for him? I’m just getting dragged through the mud here.
This may not be your individual fault, but it’s your country’s fault, as a population.
But YOU actually have the power to do something about it. YOU have the power to change this.
WE CAN’T go to your state governors and yell at them. WE CAN’T go to your state representatives and yell at them. WE CAN’T go to your congresspeople and yell at them. BECAUSE WE’RE NOT AMERICAN. They won’t listen to us because THEY DON’T WORK FOR US, THEY WORK FOR YOU.
If enough of you give them enough hell, they’ll eventually back down and stop supporting this bullshit.
So it’s your responsibility to organize, protest, and give these fuckers hell and scare them into getting Trump and Vance the fuck out of the White House.
All of us around the world need solidarity in opposition to aristocracy and fascism.
However, being a citizen gives you responsibility for your government no matter how you vote, this is basic civics.
Your country settles for ridiculously bad politicians on both sides. It’s media fails to rigorously hold any of them to account. If the left media isn’t handing softballs to Harris it’s hurling insults at the other side and vice versa. You lap it up. You buy the products advertised. You donate to the parties. You vote for these morons because they aren’t those other morons. You are part of the problem too. You as a nation settled.
Maybe Canada Customs can do extra long checks on anyone visiting US or coming back from US. Maybe even a quarantine order. There is a measle outbreak in US anyway.
Yeah with the way they’re treating their health and safety regulators, there’s gonna be a ton of outbreaks in the next few years that I would rather stay the f on that side of the border please.
They deserve it for allowing Trump to win.
Yes, yes we do. Honestly, good. These knuckle-dragging red-hat clowns need to feel the effects of what we’re doing to ourselves and the rest of the world.
They didn’t listen to their fellow countrymen over the last ten years so maybe their wallets will get it.
Please, no one visit us for about four years. We deserve a timeout.
That is funny you think this poop will only last 4 years.
I did visit Canada this week though, and will again on another weekend while I happen to be in the Northeast for a bit.
As long as they keep letting me back in, I’ll keep vacationing in Canada in solidarity.
Oh well. What are you guys doing this weekend? 🤭
Will.
