Contact your governor and state AG. Also Trump is willingly letting this happen, under section four of articles of impeachment, he can be removed based on incompetence.

People complain about high healthcare costs in US. They point to Germany as a good model. Funny, there are no complaints that the US provides defense to Germany, who can then spend on healthcare instead of their own defense.

Thanks to our leaders for avoiding the tariffs which would have hurt so many people, but I'm not ready to kiss & make up. Until that dictator is gone, I'm not buying US products. This skirmish may be over, but there will be more battles ahead. We will be ready. Canadians are nice, until we're not.

Dang… he looks really unhealthy and sad. I think he’s realizing that his get out of jail card is actually a difficult job. I don’t think he wanted to be president at all. He just wanted to avoid jail and get his retribution. My guess is he’s out by the end of the year. 🙏🤞

Bob Rae as well as the panel on Vassy Kapelos’ Power Play all had same sentiments - this was unnecessary bluster. Our relationship is hurt - we could have simply had talks without threats. The threat is still there. So we are all still angry. Former MI Gov & Ambassador also agrees. Buy Canadian

Je n'ai aucune confiance à ses paroles... continuons de travailler à notre indépendance financière face au commerce entre les deux pays car Trump peut nous twitter cette nuit qu'il a changé d'idées. On va se battre.

Does anyone else feel that since Trump really has not stated an exact end game for all this tariff mischief, that maybe it is just theatre for his supporters? He can declare victory anytime he wants to and can’t be challenged. Heads or tails he decides when he wins.

30 day pause doesn't change what he did to global reputation. Tariff threats on 2 neighbors showed the world that US is unstable under Trump. And allies should make stronger economic and security bonds with other countries. Trump is weakening US.

Exactly! Trump signed that free trade agreement with Canada and Mexico in 2020, calling it a great deal for Americans. In 2025, he stabbed both trade partners in the back, showing the entire world his signature on an agreement isn’t worth his soiled diaper, and doing business with the US is stupid.

This is not only an undermining of trust in the US and its reputation as a trade and security partner, it is also economic terror against US citizens! The US President is committing an economic crime against US citizens. Why does the US need a president who bankrupts the citizens of his country?

I was hoping for the tariffs. No appeasement. Fuck the economy as hard as possible. "How much pain should the citizens of Germany felt in the 30s?" Infinite pain, given the stakes. That's where the US is right now. Nukes and climate charge are on the table. This admin must be toppled legally.

Canada figures out how to deal with Trump. Flatter the old felon until he caves. Trudeau, "What a fine shade of orange grease you have slathered all over your face today! Very becoming!"

T**** thinks he made a great deal but all he got was promised under Biden. He created a problem where there was none, but all maga will hear is that he solved the problem. This is the huge problem. MAGA will never hear how t***p got played. They’ll think he’s a hero.

By paying Scott Jennings to shout over anyone making a factual point, CNN buries fact. In the name of “both sides” broadcasts, CNN insures the ignorance of anyone who relies on it —and not other sources—for information. Why’s Daniel Dale on so much less often than Jennings,a sewer of misinformation?

MSNBC has a Nobel laureate on to discuss this. CNN has Scott Jennings on to lie, cut off & insult other guests, and sneer rather when he runs out of talking points. (He is not smart enough to have ideas). Platforming someone like that is NOT JOURNALISM. But it is CNN

#trump spent years bitching about #JoeBiden not doing anything at the southern border And is now taking credit for #Mexico doing exactly what they told #JoeBiden they would do to stop the flow of immigrants and drugs ....

I think there’s a behavior pattern here by Trump. Scene 1. Coming into scene roaring like a gorilla imposing tariffs Scene 2. Other countries strikes back. Scene 3. Come back to the first point. Scene 4. Selling their bullshit story to their streaming allies

The Canadian tax credit and the low Canadian dollar (currently 69 cents US) will bring more American movies and American tv shows to Canada. Jobs that would have been filled by American #SAG-AFTRA members if the movies and tv shows had remained in the USA will be filled by Canadian #ACTRA members

A tariff on the American companies that are filming their film and tv productions in Canada would reduce an American production company's incentive to set up shop in Canada More American film and tv productions would remain in the US and more American #SAG-AFTRA union members would be getting work

So he went through all this iteration. To get us back to exactly where we've always been. He sucks the air out of the room when all he had to do was call these people up and do exactly what he did today. Is it different way to be a statesman instead of a thug

I’d say it was always part of the strategy of roughing up his neighbours for concessions, but he went off cue and moved earlier than planned…they can’t even get a coup right when they hold all the cards.

Agreed to a bunch of stuff we agreed to while Joe FUCKING Biden was a real POTUS. FU TRUMP 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

So I read Trump is suspending tariffs for Canada and Mexico because they will increase border security. This is just after I read that he was imposing those tariffs because of America's trillions $ trade deficit and that Canada and Mexico were ripping of America. Wish he'd make up his Furkin mind!

It's all a distraction. CNN is guilty of getting played. Meanwhile Musk is breaching federal offices with a squad of hackers and CNN treats it like a minor story. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Your capitulation is just another brick on the path to an illegal overthrow.

@cnn, why do allow this guy Scott to come on your station and just make stuff up just like Trump does, I don't get it, like pull up the facts on a split screen or something because anyone with half a brain knows he is lying, like that one commentator said, this is all public knowledge

The Dow dropped 600 points. Mexico and Canada are not rolling over. The criminal in charge has to blink because he hates looking stupid and old. This pause will be permanent. Meanwhile, we still have a foreigner playing with our money. It's time to sue the nazi into oblivion.

Gosh, would it not have made more sense to have the phone call BEFORE threatening tariffs, and not after? Any 5 year old (except one that I can think of) could figure that one out.

Yep! And the dumbass fell for it. Again. This is why you don’t mess with 🇨🇦. We’re smarter than he is. We won’t ever be the 51st but we may end up with a half-dozen new provinces by the end of this. You guys want lower income taxes and free healthcare? It worked out well for Newfoundland!

I don’t trust DT. The tariff was never about (just) the fentanyl but a whole heck more (dare I say, access to our natural resources— taking over Canada as he has been hinting). I do think a tighter border control is much needed — to curb the massive gun influx coming into Canada from the U.S.

…Let’s not take this “pause” for granted and keep an eye out…I believe he will come up something else in 30 days or less. 🙄 I will still continue to #BuyCanadian. #TeamCanada 🇨🇦

Damage is done. He showed his hand. We know this game and his rules will be ever changing. Time for us to diversify our commodities and trade agreements to more global markets. Time to cut most ties with the U.S.

Too late. He’s angered the Canadian population. It takes a LOT to upset us. We’re reading labels and purchasing items that are made ANYWHERE but the U.S. Apologies to our mostly sane American friends. We know you didn’t want this either.

Even though the tariffs may be paused most Canadians are still going to change their buying patterns. No one will buy American goods anymore. Most Canadian stores have introduced “Buy Canadian” or perhaps more appropriately, “DO NOT BUY AMERICAN”programs.

Tariffs were a smokescreen so Leon's unvetted Foreign H1B operatives could go into Treasury, USAID, etc,& download sensitive information on everyone, & everything. THAT is the story you complicit Fucks should have been reporting on the Most. YOUR information in now in hands of foreign 19-24 y/olds.

The stock market drop scares Trump more than illegal immigration or fentanyl, the purported reasons for the tariffs. The great negotiator got out of Mexico and Canada what they had previously committed to do. What a 💩

Haha. So much winning! The convicted felon, rapist, orange dildo clown threatens tariffs against our neighbors, both of them pushback hard enough to stop it. He’s such a dealmaker. He’s so good. What a fucking loser. How come Congress can’t push back against him like this?

The damage has been done. Trump is being like Billy Bob Thornton’s US President in “Love Actually”. Trump musing about Canada being the 51st state feels like Putin musing about swallowing Ukraine. Trump’s power lust feels like the song “One Tin Soldier”. Canadians love Canada. No to USA.
