They are trying to destroy everything so they can use it as an excuse to grab more power.

I'm also convinced Trump is trying to provoke Canada into doing something he can declare is an act of war and then justify using military force to make them the "51st State".

When the United States aligns itself with Russia and North Korea as they did two weeks ago in the UN siding against a resolution on Ukraine, you know we're in very deep trouble here.

Anyone that still doesn't realize WTF is going on is out of their fucking mind.
I completely agree. Unfortunately.

Most terrifying times we are living in since World War 2.

My biggest concern when Trump got into power again was the impact it was going to have on Ukraine. Unfortunately things have been far worse than I could have imagined. Absolute nightmare we're living in. And it feels like it is just going to get worse and could be years/decades to recover. If they ever do.

Absolute nightmare.

Apologies to Canada and Mexico for the unhinged moron we have put in power.

All his press conferences show no understanding of how tariffs work. I refuse to believe he is this obtuse, and he's doing this for the power grab like neon said.

This increase in cost is going to go mostly to the consumer. A lot of people who voted for him are going to see their costs increasing substantially. Yet they still cheer him on!

He thinks he's going to bring Canada to its knees and he can go in and steal their resources. Same as Greenland, Panama, Ukraine--same as all his stupid little "projects."

He's cosplaying Vlad Putin. EXCEPT... Putin is a smart guy. Or at least considered smart.

Nobody walks away from Trump with anything but the impression that he's the world's biggest moron. Everybody that works for him confirms that he's basically illiterate, doesn't understand really simple concepts, incapable of thinking even two steps ahead, etc.

That was the first go-round. Now we add senility to the list.

Part of me thinks he's being played. He's being told there will be slight pinch and then the economy will soar and he'll be a hero when the actual intent is to burn down the U.S. economy. Kamala was right about at least one thing--play to his ego and you'll get anything you want out of him.

My gf is excited for the SOTU tonight--she LOVES anything cringey (probably why she's with me). Me? I can't take it. I get such intense second-hand embarrassment, I can only catch the highlights.

No chance of me watching his little delusion-fest tonight. Maybe I'll just give some catnip to the cat, it'll be far more interesting to watch.

I can tell you for a fact. Canadians are not putting up with this fuck head and his pack of thieves and liars. American products are being yanked off the shelves here . Never to return. Canadians are cancelling their vacations and business trips to the U.S . American based companies operating here will be hurting badly as people shop and eat elsewhere. The buy local movement is in full swing and new trade partners are being negotiated. There is even talk of turning off the Oil, gas and electricity to the US. It’s going to get very ugly , very quick.

MattleyCrue is a Trumptard true believer. I bet that if the gas shut-off happens, or even just tarriffs or other restrictions on the supply, and his car sales tank, he'll only blame Canada.

Don't vacation in red states. Don't have conferences in red states. Hurt red state businesses. Boycott known repuglican supporting businesses.
