Can The Electoral College attempt to save democracy by acting as a safeguard against threats to our government structure? This nonpartisan issue protects against extreme corruption, undue influence, foreign interference, and demagogues. Extreme measures demand defense of democracy's foundation.
The electoral college needs to be abolished. This institution has done nothing but screw American over by forcing upon us presidents that the majority did NOT want.
A majority wanted Clinton in 2016, a majority wanted Gore in 2000.
The Electoral College can absolutely override in extreme cases as a safeguard. However, history suggests they rarely act to intervene. This is why many advocate for its abolition, arguing it fails to serve its intended purpose. The one time you need a fire extinguisher and you don't have one.
Agreed! Christopher Titus's podcast is so good. Hal Sparks, TabithaSpeaksPolitics, Hysteria, I've Had It Podcast, Reese Waters... More collaboration with that community instead of MSM talking heads talking out their asses.
Chrystia Freeland, π¨π¦π Deputy PM and Minister of Finance negotiated with the orange one during NAFTA/USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement). She doesn't fuck around, neither does Mexican π²π½ President Claudia Sheinbaum.
Canada and Mexico have seen this show before. And they have shored up other trade partnerships since the last time. The US will be screwed the most, and deservedly so.
As a Canadian I truly hope Trudeau finds some courage and doesn't kowtow again to Trumps whims.
I wish Trudeau had the courage of Biden and stepped down for the good of the party and Canada. As a life time Liberal, I am deeply disappointed in and with Trudeau.
Piss off your neighbours on both sides, smart π
Go ahead and charge those 25% tariffs on Canadian products, orange man. Itβs going to shock some people when you turn on that giant tap of CANADIAN water that flows down into the USA, and they discover that their imported water costs them 25% more.
When all you Magaβs voted for DT you also voted for his 25% tariffs. I guess you wonβt mind paying twice as much for food & gas! Prices were just starting to come down. You were warned! The price of eggs will double that you were so concerned about! We all have to pay pay pay now!
Apologies for my ignorance.
To me it looks more like a photo of HH's face was superimposed onto Donald Trump's body.
I guess it's a reference to the similarity in policies between the two individuals??
Looks like you'll be eating your guns and the trump flags hanging off your trucks...oh and get ready to work in the fields picking fruit instead of sitting in the double wide enjoying blue state welfare....you voted 4 it
And Iβm here for it. Waiting for Trumpers to realize what they voted for. And it has NOTHING to do with Biden, Kamala, Obama, Hillary, or any Democrats. In order to lower his tariffs, Trump will subsidize these imports and grow our deficit. Very smart π
I hope each and every day of trumps time in the White House is one frustrating ketchup throwing,door slamming, social media ranting man-baby meltdown after another.
π€trump will drive us into the ground.
He's already created 2 sides.
Families have stopped being families because of trump.
Friends are lost because of trump.
Maybe it's gonna take another country, or 2, to say, "enough is enough! Stop trump NOW!"π
Canada Caught Twice More Drugs Being Trafficked Across Border Than U.S. 95% Of Drugs Trafficked From Mexico Into
US Is By American Citizens. Trump Killed Americaβs Border Bill ; High-Tech Security/Drug Detection Equipment, Extended Wall And 1,500 More Border Patrols βThen Blames Canada And Mexico?
Trump says it is time for Canada, China and Mexico to pay high tarriffs. Only problem is those countries do not pay tarriffs we the consumer pay as a tax in the product being bought.
Im wondering if itβs some sort of universal cosmic intervention that Mexico elects Sheinbaum in the same cycle that we bring back this hell. Could she be a much needed bulwark?
CA&MX really donβt even to hit us with retaliatory tariffs for these to be a massive hit on the US. For political reasons maybe some response with specifically targets that wouldnβt have a huge impact on their own economies.
Boom !!! Not yet in , and the crisis start already!!! Just imagine , instead if being nice to our neighbors , he wants to bully them!!!!Exactly the opposite of President Joe Bidenπ€¬π€¬π€¬
This Canadian would love to see Canada leave NAFTA completely and join the EU.
Second, Canada is basically the world's sole provider of medical Isotopes. Cut off America's supply and watch their healthcare collapse.
trump and his supporters need to learn the hard way.
More Americans immigrate to Mexico (especially Texans) than Mexicans to US & despite high costs no one leaves Canada except Elonia who wanted to chase Pete Theil in San Francisco
And so it starts. The downfall of the US. The dollar as the universal currency is what keeps America afloat. When the world looses confidence in America politically, they loose confidence economically, the dollar is no longer the universal currencyβ¦.America collapses, civil war ensues
Yep. And as with everything else, maga doesnβt understand any of this. If the dollar looses its global hegemony we are irrevocably fucked and there IS NO FIXING IT. None of them understand what a dangerous game they are playing
And good for them. 47 acts like everyone needs us. They donβt. They have been making plans without us since 2016. The MAGAs have put all of us in an insecure position going forward.
So not only will items coming into this country be 25% higher when they reach consumers, now we are talking about these items being 50% higher. Claire McCaskill was on MSNBC today saying βForget that avocado toast and guacamole.β Most of our avocados come from Mexico.
The arrogance and the ignorance of the right wingers. These are sovereign nations, of course they will clap back at Trump. The level of respect he received the first time will not be repeated especially after his unhinged campaign and 50% Americans voting for him.
I wonder if Trump et al realize that if they intentionally blow up the greatest economy in the world, that the demand for drugs is just going to go up?
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! TRUMP lost!! New Proof of Election Fraud - 3 counties malware found, more statistical data that is too "perfect" and does not match normal voting patterns. If we demand recounts it will overturn the election!! Latest: https://substack.com/home/post/p-... Call for Investigations!!
I think you mean the flow of illegals into Canada is in the millions. πππ and of course, none of this is true although I suspect a lot of us would like to emigrate to Canada or Mexico or Ireland or almost anywhere else.
Not in the tens of millions like Mexico but a lot of people from Muslim countries flow across the Canadian borders. Very simple for Canada to stop this if they want and avoid the tariffs

A big π to go with the ones already recieved from Mexico and China ππGenius businessman and all round moron, Trump, has really asserted his perceived authority π€£π€£π€£π€‘
Absolutely correct. The US exports its disgusting weapons all over the world. Their guns have caused unimaginable pain in countries like Colombia, where Escobar used them to kill thousands.
Who could have predicted that? Pretty much anyone on the planet who understands trade, tariffs and basic economics. It's not like we don't have examples. Disastrous Smoot-Hawley and more recently China's retaliatory tariffs on US farm goods.
Cubans gave up the CAA Voting 68% for Maga return.
Look at your Budget once they eliminate it.
Marco Rubio won't be seeing any of you.
He lied to you he will hide behind Maga.
Sorry not Sorry.
Before you start acting youβre the big strong man, make sure you understand how economics works, especially tariffs. These countries can make you whimper away like a scared puppy in an instant.
As a Canadian, Obama ignored us, Trump disdained us, Biden forgot we existed and now Trump will screw us. Sorry, Canada is no longer your ally. We have other markets to sell to.

he had a lot going against him, his daddy made him feel stupid and his wives made him feel small. now he's like a cornered feral animal. this will not end well ..for him
I notice that the women are not cowed by this bully-baby and his stupid threats. (If Justin Trudeau steps down as PM, expect Freeland to be in the running to lead the party. If that happens the US will be bracketed by strong women-led countries.)
Canadians are hearty people. We also have good international relationships outside of the USA. As Trump comes in the power, he will sewer any relationships he has with USA allies. Once again, heβs only going to hurt his own people with his nonsense.
Lovely.Trump is creating extreme animosity & dread before he even is in office. It took Biden nearly 2 1/2 yrs to pull Trumps destruction out of the gutterβ¦God help the next President after Trump because a C lot of what heβs planning this time canβt easily be undone. Greedy,selfish ppl are dangerous
Yeah, youβre probably right. I was thinking about his last term mess. Heβs learned to be a much better liar & criminal since then. Destroying a democracy takes practice & effort. Ask Viktor OrbΓ‘n.
I can see MAGA still defending tariffs because they think the price of gas & eggs will go down. Theyβll get a crash course in real life economics when they realize that everything will go up in price while jobs could be lost. Unfortunately the rest of us will suffer along with them
When the tariffs hit and the prices for produce goes through the roof, we need to do exactly what MAGA did at the gas pumps. Anyone want to start making the Trump version of these?
I hope more world leaders do this. I also hope they keep going for 4 years. I hope they don't bow down to him. That tends to happen with people. I don't fucking understand that. Talk a bunch of crap about him and then bend over!! NOOOO, I want ONE person to fucking stand up to this monster, forever
Did anyone believe that Canada & Mexico would acquiesce to the child dictatorβs blustering threats? He canβt own them like he does the unwashed masses in the U.S. Buckle up.
Rememberβ¦β¦he lies. Heβs a pathological narcissist liar. Nothing that comes out his racist mouths is truth. America knows he lies. Yet Americans still voted for a liar. He lied to Cult members about the elections being rigged, they believed him. January 6th domestic terrorist attack at DC Capitol.π΄π»πποΈ
All kind of sh!t is coming to Canada from the Divided States of Banana Republics.
We need to build a wall and trumpon with lying ted (aka beautiful ted) will pay for it.
An I and my family stand by that. Tit for tat, regardless of short term pain that might be caused by tariffs on US imports. We can turn to other suppliers.
Good. This is some cluster fuck these stupid uninformed or alternately selfish people voted for. And only now all of a sudden things are coming out? Werenβt these people listening? Itβs just mind boggling
Leave it to smart and capable women to again put the Orange Doofus in his place. My God! Trump is such a blithering idiot that he cannot go a day without embarrassing our country with his stupidity and rank incomeptence.
Good, of course he is going to respond in kind. I knew that was going to happen. And whoever he imposes a 100-200-500 tariff on should do the same thing right back. As with his first administration, he is going to attack my friends, and cosy up to our enemies.
It looks like incompetence and implosion, but it seems like every piece of fallout is landing favorably for any country that would benefit from the financial collapse of the US (and NATO). π€

I like her!
Exactly.
We are telling the worlds gangsters win the whitehouse and your immunie... please look up Pablo Escobar
If this is about the border & fentanyl, reintroduce that bill.
Problem solved, but it was never about the border. Fucking lunatic
2" left was the other solution

Hopefully all the MAGA gringos will self deport. And there a good bit of them living a socialist Mexican life.
Viva Mexico! π²π½
Bring the pain
If he isn't, then it's going to cost you, you Americans. Big time.
Conversations will happen and it's going ton work out better then you ever expected. Promise π
Gas is going to be $6 on day one under Dump. NOW I donβt mind not driving. Iβll have to use that car money I saved to survive anyways
βDonβt look at us, we didnβt vote for him!β
We should have seen this BEFORE the election.
All the good stuff only sees the light NOW.
So glad they are standing their ground.
