Fuck off you demented old fool.
ADDITIONAL 25% Tariff, to 50%, on all STEEL and ALUMINUM COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM CANADA,
My company:
Has two shops 1 in Canada and 1 in the US; US shop now solely handles all American related jobs while Canada handles any job globally, besides the US.
Real smart play here ol trump
“Let’s kill all the jobs now for a few new kinds of jobs that probably won’t come to fruition” -Trump, American genius.
Saw this years ago and honestly couldn’t be more fitting today.So we charged them 25% more for our electricity and his response is to charge his own citizens 25% more??
Wow
Russia’s objective isn’t tariffs – it’s to splinter/decouple international coordination and cooperation amongst western nations.
So, yeah. The faster Trump can accelerate that, the happier his boss’ll be.
Like the buy[local] type campaigns are most likely getting a bit of a bump from Russian propaganda agents – even if they are ‘real’ sentiments to some extent too.
Also, forgetting Russia for a moment, the ultra rich love this shit. They have enough real money to buy up all the smaller businesses. They love economic downturns like this, and it’s possible that Trump is simply a fanboy simp who is voluntarily taking Russian advice and example. It’s also important to say this because it means the stupid, zero-memory US citizens need to understand that it will continue even with Trump gone and even if Russia disappears.
He’s not doing this because of blackmail, he’s doing this because he wants to.
I think there’s a plan to entertain the US with some conflict while Russia does some shit so it can’t intervene later on. Their only true opposition as far as tech goes is the US army so it makes sense to disable it. I also have a feeling part of this is an attempt to normalize the invasion of other countries. And what better way to accomplish it all than to push the US out of NATO so the former Soviet countries are easy pickings for Russia.
It’s like watching the Kremlin call the shots at this point. What Trump is doing makes no sense without thinking What Would Putin Do?
I’d agree to some extent, but I honestly think it’s a bit more nuanced than a direct “He’s doing what Putin wants” situation – as it’s also what the various groups backing Trump in the states want (the folks who were all in on Project 2025). I find it easier to understand as a conflict between an “egalitarian” world view, and an “authoritarian” one. Putin, and Trump’s crowd, are clearly on the authoritarian side.
Someone recently pointed out to me that this view of it also aligns to the difference between the greek orthodox church and the roman catholics. In the latter, the translation of the bible into different languages meant individuals were encouraged to read the bible, and determine (in part on their own) how best to avoid hell; in the orthodox approach, it was entirely up to the priests to inform the masses what they had to do to avoid hell, as only the priests could read latin. Russia’s still very much of the orthodox approach – and in the US, many of those mega pastor sorts have pushed in this direction as well. So their interests line up.
That authoritarian mindset also lines up with big tech, and the whole Yarvin nonsense. It lines up with the blanket firing approach and terrorization of the federal work force, to make them more subserviant/compliant. And it generally lines up with the Russian view that the world should be cut up into like 4 blocks, with a ‘strong man’ leading each block. That division that was pushed forward by Dugin, generally “gives” north America to the US.
He’ll raise taxes on Americans again too, if Canada doesnt shape up!
What’s that flushing sound I hear? Oh, it’s just the US economy.
He just really likes raising taxes.
Trump and Republicans trying to convince Canada they’ll be treated well while they’re pissing all over their colony in DC right in front of everyone.
If we get in, Puerto Rico has to get in as well.
Our Moron in Chief
The dumbest part of the 51st state nonsense, is Canada is very left leaning (compared to the US, even their right wing would probably be considered on par with Democrats here imo). Making Canada the 51st state would ensure he never wins an election again, but it seems like he’s not too worried about the whole election thing moving forward. I guess when you gut CISA, and probably stole the '24 election you aren’t worried about getting votes…
Also, the land mass of Canada would have to make it like 10 more states. It’s already 10 provinces. It’s just ridiculous.
is Canada is very left leaning
Idk, this election is very close for a Poilievre win. Pretty sure the Fox News propaganda machine would do its magic in no time.
I don’t think anyone there wants to abandon their free healthcare, but you never know with these smooth brain conspiracy people.
People don’t understand what’s up with abandoning healthcare. Ford keeps getting re-elected…
Narcissistic abuser tactics, as usual. “I’ll be so good to you, babe, the
beatingstariffs will stop if you become mywife51st state.”But not Puerto Rico, Guam, Washington DC (at least voting rights) or any other territory that has been essentially part of the country but probably is full of brown people so they don’t get the upgrade.
Thing is, Canada doesn’t want to be apart of the USA. That should tell you a ton about the state of the union. Maybe adopt the advantages the Canadians have over us? Then they might be accepting of joining.
But Canadians are proud and love their country sovereignty. They will fight to protect it. Why start a war over nothing?
Fuck Trump and anyone who supports this stupid fuck.
What are the protocols/powers involved in declaring something a national emergency? Like what decision power does the president gain in that scenario?
EDIT: This site seems to cover a lot of the benefits gained and what protections are in place to limit overreach, but given the current state of affairs I can’t imagine why Congress would reign in the abuse.
The national guard, on the Canadian Border perhaps, nearest the manufacturing and farming corridor of the neighbor he has been openly threatening to annex, in one of the most heavily populated areas in the country with access to be the largest volume of fresh water in the world…
Lol at there no longer being a border problem. How exactly does this change ANYTHING about guns and fentanyl crossing between Canada and the US? And whatever immigration problems Trump is complaining about would be completely moot if suddenly the entire country are now forced to become US immigrants.
Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved “the border crisis”. This is not a rational human being we’re dealing with, it’s a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.
This reads like a creative writing essay written by a 12 year old kid.
He can’t take a clear ‘no’ for an answer. No wonder he’s a convicted rapist.
This is the stupidest thing ever. If he really wants a 51st state then Puerto Rico is right there and wants to gain statehood.
He wants our resources, PR can’t help there.
