Trump keeps whining about the U.S.-Canada trade deal and sparked global chaos over it—but what’s rarely mentioned? He’s the one who negotiated it and spent his first term bragging about it.

Never underestimate how stupid people are. It was only about 30% of the US population that voted for the orange moron. There are many of us here that aren't blathering idiots, the problem is the part of us that aren't idiots are too lazy to go and vote for some reason.
You would think that we would have but apparently about 30% of my country’s electorate truly are that stupid, and about 40% of the electorate were too lazy to go vote.
Right?! And why aren’t they mentioning that a trade deficit is not a subsidy or that the fentanyl that crossed the Canadian border into the USA was being transported by Americans.
Because the press are cowards. People in the press industry are typically people who grew up not knowing how to fight or stand up against someone. So their culture just breeds that kind of weak journalism.
There really isn’t anything Trump doesn’t whine about. What could possibly have happened to a demonstrably wealthy, spoiled kid that has made everything so dastardly unfair?
Yes, us Canadians are well aware of the hate he is creating in Americans, against us. We see what he is doing and is unforgivable. The barely 1% of Fentanyl that crosses through your border. It’s all a ploy to divide our countries. Not enough critical thinkers to see through this.
This was not Clinton's doing. It was negotiated by Sr Bush and left to be signed by Clinton so I guess with all the spin he failed to challenge it for a rewrite.
Let’s not give him too much credit. All he did is changed a few words in the North American Free Trade Agreement and then called it The Trump agreement.
Don't ever associate this beast with the memory of Elvis. He has been evil since a child. He is mentally deranged a person even more manipulative money men thought they could control by feeding his many insecurities and jealousy.

What I can't fathom is the GOP was so desperate to remain in power they knowingly pushed him on us and added even more devils advocates so he could win power and have power to hold over their heads. He has abd GoP has went too far.
Trump doesn't recognize nor understand the sheer size of the U.S. & our economic power. He wants to equate smaller, less powerful nations as equivalents. There is a logical reason for trade deficits. Smaller countries with less population cannot compete equally with the power magnitude of the U.S.
That alleged guy's dead. Trump needs to be impeached, tried, then prosecuted, then imprisoned, then have some sort of very embarrassing natural death in a few years, while serving a sentence.
Dead, he was killed that day. Where is the guy who tried to shoot him at Maralago? Where is the man he and Barr hired to take Eipstein out as a man so egotistical would not commit suicide.
Yes, and why are reporters so scared of pointing this out to him? Along with pointing out how much Trump increased the national debt when he complains about the debt?
How dare you! Golden retriever puppies are precious and absolutely the opposite of that orange moron. LOL. He has the attention span of a pile of dung. Please don't besmirch puppies.
Precisely, he was touting how much better the trade deal with Canada and Mexico over NAFTA and now it is an albatross to the US, it was his “negotiating skills” that got us to this point. I am more convinced than ever that Trump paid for his diploma, he couldn’t have earned it.
He came back from his meeting with Canada (2017) and told his rally crowd that he said USA was in a deficit on trade with Canada. Then he admitted he didn't know, he just told Canada that and the crowd cheered. His cult loves that he is a lying scum.
I have stated before and will keep stating. Never trust an American and why keep trading with them is beyond me. I really hope we finally wake up to this fact and quit kidding ourselves
It's not great for us, either. We have to supply the USA before we can supply ourselves... or we would have to, if the tariff threat hadn't broken the trade deal... 😁
Exactly. He wants our resources for free. Basically wants to get to treat us like his business partners… take, take, take and then never make his payments.
Question for the Orange Felon- if the USA doesn’t need anything from Canada, how can we be treating the USA unfairly? Are we forcing them to buy our products?
As Hal Sparks has been saying for weeks, Trump is saying that USMCA sucks!
Even though he previously insisted that it was the greatest trade deal ever.
Fortunately for Donald J Trump & his techno-nazi/Christian Nationalist/alt-right power brokers, Trump's supporters have very short memories. It is almost as if Trump wasn't the POTUS before.
The premise of this post is that it's somehow bad for the US. It isn't; the USMCA trade agreement is hugely advantageous to both of us. Their trade deficits have more to do with the USD being the global reserve currency than the exchange of goods (can't devalue the de facto yardstick).
He can’t handle the truth, he’s upset that he couldn’t do better, and he’s also upset that he looks even stupider now with them not being ready to submit for him. It’s just like the women who laughed at his advances. He can’t accept that they have no interest in him!
Protecting potential attacks from Artic is much more a protection of the USA than a protection of Canada.
USA will always do it despite Canada being a state or not.
He just wants to increase the USA size because he is megalomaniac or should we say MAGALomaniac.
The danger of dementia in front of us
Also what he doesn’t say is the fact that if you removed the energy from the balance then USA has a commercial benefits.
Every time you spend money in exchange of goods you are being stolen according to Trump logic.
This logic is only true when you buy stuff from Trump.
Trump proves his ignorance
Trump uses his tariff scams to influence the market. Buy the stocks low. Then when he reverses it, the market stabilizes again and he and his friends can make a profit.
Not me. If anything I will watch the 2028 Olympics on CBC, but I won't be travelling south of the border. They don't like Trans people in the USA anymore.
Spock once said, "Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." This line dives into the heart of hypocrisy, emphasizing that true logic avoids self-contradiction
Elon Musk is a terrible human being. While his mother was off modeling, and Musks father was away from his like who was raising a severely autistic child? How did persons mold this child into such a twisted person who has no human emotion?
Were fed up all together with the US. We know their geography, their history and their politics. However very few have ever thought of Canada until now. This have brought up feels we've probably always had. When you neglect a good neighbour don't expect them to be good forever.
I’ve been repeating this for weeks. I have no idea why the media and people are not just confronting him and his lackeys with this inconvenient fact every day.
It's not only the whining, it's the lying, check your export import data before Elon steals it. If it weren't for oil and gas, you'd be in surplus. Plus you already have a surplus in services.
The larger irony was that the USMCA trade agreement was little more than an airbrushed NAFTA. As always, Trump contributions are smaller than he claims.
Question: why, if tariffs only hurt your own people, is the response to tariffs to invoke retaliatory tariffs❓ if that's true, wouldn't just boycotting the offending country work without penalizing your own constituents❓❓❓
same M.O as Musk--make a bunch of ignorant changes for no discernable reason which then leads to huge problems, back out of those changes or make more changes to rectify the situation they caused, then brag about fixing the "problem" they created.
The only thing that has changed is he had an idea to annex them. Trump thinks the trade deficit is bad. So go sell Madagascar vanilla and see how it goes dumbass!
As a 🇨🇦 I’m aware of all of this, however Canada will likely NEVER be part of the EU. We have many trading agreements with European countries but We are a proud sovereign country that is a constitutional monarchy. We will ALWAYS be our own country.
All cults (judaism, christianity, islam, etc.) are evil. They started by manmade lies that created followers who hate each other. They are causing divisions, wars, massmurder, misogyny, hate for LGBTQ, the poor, the sick, and the disabled. Their leaders are the billionaires of the world.
Once again, Trump's strategy is simple. Collect billions of dollars through the new tariff system, so that it can be handed to Musk and his billionaire cronies without costing Trump a single cent. Use the taxpayer-funded US Customs bureaucracy to further enrich the rich guys who got him elected.
He’s moved farther right with the tech bros and is more emboldened with these rocket scientists by his side. So looking at it with a different lens. He doesn’t realize they are fools and that may not matter.
Why are we immediately not going after revoking Musks citizenship for Treason and Espionage Act? The chips will fall quickly after this. Also put Stephen Miller in solitary confinement while all of this shakes out and Trump is taken down.
Power is in numbers, we have a voice and there are politicians, judges, law enforcement and military who still believe in a Democratic Union, not all are corrupt.
Our Belligerent POTUS with a massive ego that prevents him from acknowledging that he started this trade war will destroy democracy, our self-governance, civil rights and the world order
ITrump said we'd be winning so much we'd get tired of winning. Instead Trump is always whining
Except Canada and Mexico don't call it what Trump wanted. 🙃 It's also still often referred to as "NAFTA", because it simply makes more sense. I'm surprised he didn't try to make them put "Trump" in the name.
He is a political arsonist - he starts fires just so he can claim to be the big hero when he puts the fire out! His followers never seem to figure it out until the fire burns them.
Even mentioning Canada as the 51 state is moronic. CANADA would get 59 congressman. The Congress is around 468 members. So, other states would have to relinquish so the Canadians could fit in. Canada would be most powerful state in Union! Suck on that Trump!
So...to fact check...435 seats in Congress and around 100 in Senate. But you get my drift! Those swings states may not matter the much anymore. Canada would drive the USA Political agenda. Trump
is not that bright!
Oh yeah. That’s right. How could we forget?
Could it be the daily mass chaos he foists upon the world that leaves us forgetting the atrocities of the previous day…
#FollowTheMoney!! Who (person(s)) in the #tRumpCrimeCabal AND Associates are Making Monies by SHORTING the Markets on #DonnieDiapers Tariff Threats!!!!????????????????
🤔🤔🤔🧐🧐🧐🤔🤔🤔🧐🧐🧐
It's also not a subsidy , it's that 'Merica buys more from Canada bc we have more things they want & they are 10x the population.
It's like me saying that I subsidize the grocery store bc I buy a lot from them & they buy $0 from me.
The Idiot of the Deal.
Gee I wonder why he bankrupted so often
Also, why isn’t anyone pointing out the obvious: joint borders have 2 security checkpoints - one on the Canadian side, the other on the US. If somehow we err, and allow someone through…it’s the USA border patrol that’s permitting them to continue on, Stateside. So…it’s your error to let them in! 🤷🏼

Where’s DOGE?
It pisses me off that the world is basically paying for our domestic strife.
I really hope we can fix this and tell the fascists to take a hike for good.
Must be why they are bankrupting farms (which will cause food scarcity for citizens, btw)

Cuts to social security, Medicare, Medicaid, education, USAID, NIH research, national parks,
All to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
Dem house caucus needs to hold the line.
The known grifters are already talking about dismantling the EU and removing our current democratically elected leaders
The Nazis want us to be rules by Nazis
Never covered Biden & his accomplishments
Normalized Trump every fcken day no matter how awful he was during Biden’s term
We’ve been in a media blackout for years
Uncritically presenting disingenuous GOP bullshit talking points as “news”
Where are you losers now?
Every day when I wake up
I'm hoping he's done an Elvis the night before

It means Brazil, Russia and India, China, South Africa plus a lot more Countries are joining.
Trump is pushing other Countries from doing business with the US.
Trump thinks he's so smart but behind him these Countries are preparing to leave the US.

Who dear visit USA ?
Which was just a light revision of NAFTA anyway - nothing to toot your horn about, especially for him. Nothing gained whatsoever.
Where is media?

I couldn’t believe her hypocrisy.
is supplying the US with all the fentanyl. There is always a
method to his fuck’n madness.
truth is our border does have problems: drugs—from US, guns—from US, immigrants—from US, crime—from US.
Remember this, when 🍊speaks, the opposite of what he says is always the truth.
Truth is an illusion.
