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 US would be better off without them.

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.

Chrystia Freeland, 🇨🇦🍁 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 🇲🇽 President Claudia Sheinbaum.

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.

🤞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!"🍀

Please tell me that in this nation we are going to challange that a CONVICTED FELLON is not permitted to win offices (like it is in all 50 states) We are telling the worlds gangsters win the whitehouse and your immunie... please look up Pablo Escobar

They both also should of said this all could of been avoided and border secured, if Trump has not killed the bi-partisans border bill 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

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 Biden🤬🤬🤬

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 currency….America collapses, civil war ensues

And good for them. 47 acts like everyone needs us. They don’t. 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 “Forget that avocado toast and guacamole.” 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 think you mean the flow of illegals into Canada is in the millions. 😂😂😂 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 🖕 to go with the ones already recieved from Mexico and China 🖕🖕Genius businessman and all round moron, Trump, has really asserted his perceived authority 🤣🤣🤣🤡

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.

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, he’s 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 gutter…God help the next President after Trump because a C lot of what he’s planning this time can’t easily be undone. Greedy,selfish ppl are dangerous

I can see MAGA still defending tariffs because they think the price of gas & eggs will go down. They’ll 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

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

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.
