You're the epitome of an arrogant Liberal Canadian, even though you pretend not to be. I get you don't like Trump, but you someone posts something about protecting their borders, even though some of it is just supporting his president, and you go off like some screaming liberal white lady.

I enjoy winning. And brother, all I do is win. To be honest, I look so good doing it, at times, it doesn’t feel fair to everyone else.

Why the big fuss then? Calling everyone an idiot.

Dude you talk out of both sides of your ass all the time. You post all these tweets and say you love trump policies, but then a post later you say it’s all rhetoric and you and no one should believe a thing he says. It’s ridiculous.

You’ve posted this before. everyday you call people on here idiots. Almost every comment you post is arrogant. I get it, it’s part of the game. Don’t like the competition?
- bloatedmosquito

Successful people have a certain amount of arrogance in their demeanor, it's what in part makes them driven and successful. I don't think you're a horrible person, don't be that dramatic. I think mine, at least on this site, is more in jest most of the time and it's more along the hockey side of things.

Like I said, I get that you don't like Trump, I've said many times on here that the man is a fool, he just spews nonsense continually. That being said, I don't argue with or against everything he says, I agree with some of their America first policies, but their actions implementation of them or delivery is often lacking.

Sometimes it would be nice to just hear you say, I get it, they're somewhat disingenuous but they're trying to secure their borders instead of just fighting tooth and nail against anything and everything Trump...I won't hold my breath.

Show me a post where I said I absolutely love everything Trump. I've stated many times I like their America first policies, but their delivery is often terrible. I mean, honestly, if Canada had more past and present governments who put Canada first, in instances like this they could just tell the US to go (frank) themselves.

Trump can bluff all he wants but there's no quick way around this, a lot of Mid West refineries run upwards of 90% Alberta crude. They can't mitigate this easily, just like Canada can't build pipelines East and West, or LNG projects at the drop of a hat, these projects take years to build.

US crude imports. They actually export as much crude to Canada as they import from Canada but all crudes are not the same.

One question that's being asked is... what does Trump even want with tariffs on Canada? He's broadly mentioned boarder security but then Canada said they'd spend a billion or something and he still put tariffs on. There's no objective to this. The numbers don't back it up either

His underlying objective, outside of all the fluff, in my opinion, is perceived American security, global power and exploitations of Canadian resources.

He/they doesn't want China to have control of the Panama canal (security) and Greenland was a strategic landmass for WWII. The Canadian northern waters will be passable in the coming years, I've read that has something to do with it as well. I only know what I read and take it all with a grain of salt. I'm just a little man in the grand scheme, just trying to retire and take care of my family while watching my childhood hockey team try and win a Stanley Cup. My life is very simplistic compared to all these cloak-and-dagger politics.

Canada, by and large, is a vast majority of wasteland, there's very few people compared to the landmass. It's just packed with natural resources.

You have the ability to see both the good and bad side of Trudeau, who's a deeply flawed person and politician, but cannot for whatever reason afford the same views towards Trump. Because he's not Canadian.

Canadian dollar is about to hit new all time lows.


"BMO's economics team revises its outlook for Canada rates amid Trump's 25% tariff. BMO now expects six-straight quarter-point cuts from the Bank of Canada, until the policy rate reaches 1.5% in October."

"Canada’s entire economy has become a fraudulent dumpster fire built upon unsustainable credit secured by inflated real estate valuations.

The gov’t needed an excuse to bring interest rates back down to just above zero, otherwise the coming foreclosures would wipe us out."

Money laundering much? This is how you become a politician worth 100 million dollars on a 200k dollar salary.


UKRAINE: What if 58% of the U.S. taxpayer dollars sent to Zelensky never even reached Ukraine? Where did it go? Did the CIA skim a cut? Did Ukrainian officials and generals pocket their share? Did The Big Guy get his usual slice? If Zelensky's claim is true—that he only received $75 billion of the $177+ billion Washington sent—what happens next? Do we shrug and move on, or do we finally demand answers and accountability?

Fake news. I’ve never once complimented JT. The only props I’ve given him was his negotiating team during the NAFTA renegotiation. They did a tremendous job. So good in fact that Trump wants another shot at renegotiating due to his first team’s incompetence. Peter Navarro might be the dumbest person on Trump’s orbit… and that’s saying something.

I have said that Trudeau gets more blame than he deserves. Which is true. I like posting his picture because it drives you MAGA types crazy. But that’s just for fun.

Countries are starting to troll Trump and I’m here for it.

20% of American adults are on Ozempic. That’s not surprising as we all know the entire country is full of fat, disgusting people. Ozempic is manufactured in Denmark. Greenland is a Denmark protectorate.

If Trump continues his ridiculous stance on Greenland, Denmark will cut supply of Ozempic to the US.

If that happens, watch all the MAGA fatties lose their blubbery shit.

The US is in a tailspin. That’s the only reason Trump got in. He’s using the snot eating hillbilly’s of the US to gain power for himself. There is nothing he can do to pull the US out of this. They are no longer a super power. Their population is a bunch of uneducated entitled pop culture obsessed morons. They’re being left behind. Canada is no better. Both are (frank)ed.

BRICS is winning. The west is so indebted to the east it’s beyond repair. The US dynasty that once was is circling the drain.

- TurdFergeson

yeah Trump won the popular vote by over 5 million votes and 80% of the ststes were turning Republican red after years of woke policies from your 'boy' Biden...

But yeah it was the 'hillbilly vote' that got him back in man you are dense...

You just can’t post without making poop up can you? Biden sucked ass as I’ve said hundreds of times. Your boy JT has done wonders in Canada.

The snot eating hillbillies I said are his base. It was the people on the fence that swayed the vote because they’d rather put up with a deranged lunatic than have another four years of debt and out of control spending.

It’s not that surprising though since you are a snot eating hillbilly yourself. Get back on that Zamboni and start going in circles idiot.

So Trump paused tariffs on Mexico today for a month after a call to Claudia Sheinbaum. I presume the same will happen with Canada.
