Ladies and gentlemen, the dumbest person on the planet, Donald Trump.

    The most common response to this as an American from other Americans is “he’s joking, or it’s just a deflection.” And that can be true. But like everything else he’s said - it’s always a joke until it isn’t. But if you’re Canadian it was never a fucking joke to begin with and I’m here for it.

    We’ll wipe out anyone who dares to invade our country. Scorched earth. We will render the Great Lakes radioactive for thousands of years.

    People joke that being Canada is like living in an apartment where the person living in the floor below is a crack addict. Now, that crack addict is trying to steal your toilet to sell it for crack.

    Nasty is a compliment. It’s what he called Freeland after she stood up to him in the last trade negotiations.

    It’s also pretty funny from a guy who jails children, threatens others constantly, abuses power, and makes enemies just by breathing. I actually think in his head “nasty” really just means “won’t simply bend over for me”.

      The difference is that Göring, Goebbels and Hitler cared about Germany. Krasnov only cares about Russia.

        Hitler, he only had one ball

        Goring, had two but very small

        Himmler had something sim’lar

        And poor old Goebbels had no balls at all

        I dunno. I can’t see more than two of those names in succession without this popping into my head.

    I know I’m asking a lot, but can anyone compile the list of everyone that Trump has called “nasty”? Because I feel like we’re in really good company.

    “Hello, is this Canada? I got a vermin infestation in a White House that could use fumigation. Do it like how you did in 1814. It is too far gone to be saved.”

    Politically, Canada and California are indistinguishable. The United States with two Californias would look more like Canada than it would the current US.

    The GOP cringes every time Trump talks about a 51st state.

      I don’t know about indistinguishable. California has some super weird libertarian leanings too.

        Lived in California for years. The farther you are from large cities and quality education, the more conservative it gets. Lots and lots of conservative weirdos out in the deserts.

          Well, in that regard, it’s like most Canadian provinces or pretty much anywhere else in NA except perhaps a few Bible Belt states

    America has been subsidizing Canada

    2024: Canada imports ~$480 billion total from the USA. Divided by 40 million Canadian population, that’s $12,000 for every man, woman, and child spent on American shit.

    USA imports ~$586 billion from Canada. Divided by 400 million population, that’s only $1,465 per capita, and that’s only 1/8th of the amount that Canadians bought from the USA in return.

    ##BUY CANADIAN, BE FAIR!##

    You can’t compare apples to apples when one side of the equation has 10 times the population. If we’re trying to be fair, Trumpistan needs to buy 8 times more Canadian shit!

    Tariffs on the Canadian side will be reciprocal and will only serve to make us stop buying Murcan shit, leading to an even bigger Trumped-up deficit and the loss of their biggest, best customer. Likely long-term.
