Trudeau: Trump's Tariffs On Canada "Kind Of Insulting" 

Trudeau was supposed to say ' We deserve to declared a national security threat, and it is an honor to have tariffs placed upon us by the strong, honorable and virile President of the United States, Donald F. Trump's. Only a brainwashed libtard could think differently!

Obama could not any of the hostages out, such a fine grown up. Trump is acting WITHIN his authority as a president, only the most biased person can compare it with throwing tantrums. You clearly want America to fail, and it angers you that Trump does not.

julieno7426 obama got hostages out too.

When Trump says 'America First', every one of his supporters cheers. When Trudeau says 'Canada First', every Trump support calls him a traitor to the USA... To be consistent, they should cheers that their ideology is spreading, right? Why is it OK for the USA to enact protectionist measures, but not for Canada? I don't see why the double standard.

julieno, pull your head out of Trump's ass and get a clue. Kenneth Bae and Matthew Todd Miller, were released in November, 2014. Journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee were freed in August, 2009. North Korea plays "catch and release" with people all the time.

What do you expect, Trump has made it through his whole life by bullying everyone else. He never encountered anyone who would push back.

pisse3000 Loooooooooooooooool.

Craig X Wealth redistribution is already happening in the US. It's been happening since the 1980's.

Craig X you realize the biggest reason Canada is insulted by the tariffs is because Trump claims they're necessary for "National Security." You know. Our closest (both literally and metaphorically) ally. Our 2nd largest trading partner. A country that shares over FIVE THOUSAND MILES of our border which NO ONE has proposed building a wall on. A country whose soldiers have died fighting alongside American soldiers in many, many conflicts abroad. Yeah, those guys, real big threat to American national security there.

and they call themselves the "United" States ... I love irony !

Not “kind of”, it *IS* insulting.

Aqueous Entropous Trump is coward ass bitch what do you expect from a lousy ass washed out business man with failed businesses

WHO CARES ABOUT TRUDEAU?

Renegade MS Who cares about foreign relations, right? Who cares about our history of common courtesy on a presidential level? Who cares about how our country is represented? This is what you sound like.

Aqueous Entropous They need US. President Trump is standing up against these trade imbalances and for Americans. No one cares what Trudeau thinks.

Renegade MS And you say no one cares what the Trudeau says? The snowflake-in-chief begs to differ. He left the summit after Trudeau respectfully retaliated. Any sensible person would know this is a diplomatic failure at a meeting of several major world leaders. You’re advocating for quite the slippery slope, you know.

K Bro Hey guys it's over here

K Bro troll

You're welcome

Michaela Drabbant Trump started the tariffs. We need to stand up to this. READ the agreement the US has a big surplus on trade with Canada.

^ This. And to President Pumpkinhead's yes guy: It's pronounced "Hull." hth xP

MoonieBeans you do realize Justin's eyebrow fell off during a press conference?

MoonieBeans ❤️

The sadness is real.

+Luna, you need to remove that name. You insult the very character in Harry Potter that you seem to admire.

We will as soon as we remove the virus

No. And the way your damn dems are acting, you'll end up with 4 more years of Trump. You guys need to get your acts together.

As a Canadian who saw trump for what he was YEARS ago, America is getting exactly what they deserve. I almost hope he serves a second term just so he can make an even bigger mess of things.

Chris Amyotte You know the American people didn’t vote him in right? He got in by being „“Elected“ by other politicians in the electoral college.

DininDalael How many times does he make a statement that nobody but he thinks is true? How many more of his own people will be throw under the bus before you realize, his act is a continuous game of jenga where he pulls the bottom out from under it before it begins? I never imagined a trump lackey would finally admit it, that their supreme leader is unintelligent. The dems do have issues, and out act, wrk we at last communicate with each other before going on tv and making statements. How many times has trump said something on live and international tv and the heads of the armed services go, umm we never planned to do that, we aren't ceasing that...

Chris Amyotte if Minnesota can join Canada, then America can have trump for another term. Some of us live in states that also knew what this guy was and now we are suffering a will. We Minnesotans are almost Canadians ☺

I know right? Here in BC we are thinking about shutting off power and fresh water to California and Washington/Oregon states... Lol, NOTHING I buy is American, I go out of my way to buy Canadian or Mexican only.

P I yet you still use youtube

CriminalGameplay bad analogy, he isn't buying something from YT

Generally speaking, if something is free, YOU are the product.

Ya can we us Canadians vote for it n stop electricity and water to America...I m sure most everyone will vote yes for it...I mean I am intrigued and shocked at the same time the whole 3 parts of perliment United in Canada as one over Trump. .so hey thanks Trump for being a man child...u United us Canadians this week.

Which is weird considering our rather low opinion of him. But hey, broken clocks and all that.

I think trump calls trudeau a security threat because he repatriates isis fighters. Considering many of the saudi hijackers of 911 stayed in canada... This was a betrayal of canadians, and america. Also that 20 million settlement to a jihadist that killed an american medic... and the 20 million tax dollar donation to the clinton foundation... ugh 1812 has nothing to do with this

PS: Watch Canadian news. No he doesn't.

Centrist Dealwithit Interesting that you could get so many facts wrong in such a short message.

Centrist Dealwithit funny how Saudi Arabia wasn't part of the travel ban eh? ;)

It gets worse. They mesh the two and go "Canada is so weak for standing up to trump, they're dishonestly stabbing us in the back!"

Lol, Canadian! Typical response! Sorry....

John Crofeather I dunno. Putin already has his hand up Trump back side.

Actually, I hope he ends up rooming with Bubba Gonzalez in cell block 13 at Rikers Island.

John Crofeather I thought he was drunk but then I thought, maybe he's having a stroke? Seems like that could have been the case...

pretty much.

johnny blaze Trueaue a polite n decent Canadian president really? You know he's under fire for sexual assault right now. No wonder your a Hillary supporter you know the woman that mocked a 15yr old girl that got raped.

Gambit Godsey , that's nothing compared to trump's accusations and the things he has done . those things have nothing to do with the tv appearance and tv behaving pattern . roll back a few of trump's speeches and justin's Gambit . how to move , walk and talk as a president with dignity and sense . that's the point here.

johnny blaze - Free Palestine. 👍✊✌

Then the idiocy of saying it's national security. The tariff is bad enough in itself, on top of it you spit on you ally's face. If they wanted a national security policy all that would be needed is that any DoD contracts have to use US steel, or any other contracts deemed national security. There, done. The industry lives, and all your national security infrastructure uses domestic steel. Canada wouldn't object to that, and you don't punish every industry upstream of a raw resource. Construction, recreational boats, vehicle manufacturing (not just cars), cans, fences, metal furniture, etc. Construction alone is a major deal here. Imagine a new building's core suddenly goes up 25% in price. There's a huge amount of steel used in construction, along with millions of jobs. Increasing the cost of building to the point where things may not be built at all is going to bring in the hurt.

+Done Lostme The US is laughed at for Albania to Zanzibar... Americans are seen as clowns, how sad for a country that was once a leader.

Done Lostme make all the jokes you want our Prime Minister but you know Trump 69s Putin while Pence watches under supervision with his wife.

...begrudgingly, I agree...

Why do Americans put the maple leaf on their luggage, when visiting the rest of the world?

Yes ⭐️⭐️⭐️

fourdeck33 🤔🤔🤔🤔

fourdeck33 you're forgetting the simpsons.

Da gibts einen besonderen Platz mit dem Teufel für Leute die Führer anfechten. More or less. (I'm not a native German speaker.) It's even more egregious in German because they like to invoke the devil directly in their hell-related colloquialisms! I'm sure Trumpists would love it!

Stormey Danielz That's kinda sad. Despite his rhetoric and his sycophantic support of Trump and his tariffs, the man still has family that loves him.

hopefully he gets that life is too short to spend hating others and is better spent on love

When you drink so much, that you have to be drunk for a TV interview, then he has no one to blame but himself.

BS a drunk

Stormey Danielz I don't know if I believe that. Wouldn't surprise me if they made him unavailable to smooth things over when Chrystia Freeland visited

+Done Lostme stfu dumb yank... you are now irrelevant, no one cares about the US, you are a joke.

Sounds like Done Lostme is a member of the Jordan Peterson Cult which means he does have a valid point in that we have our share of stupid up here(Peterson is Canadian). We do however try not to elect the cripplingly stupid to run the country,

lol, he doesn't thinik THAT far!

he's not used to his actions having consequences, poor baby :( :( :(

Kind of, yeah. It's because of those subsidies we are able to produce so much more than we consume, and all that excess without tariffs would flood the Canadian market and utterly destroy their dairy industry, which no country is going to allow really because self sustaining agriculture is a national security issue.

@Jack: well duh lol. Glad to have you back.

Me thinks he's off the wagon again...

Jason Christofilos I don’t want to believe too but if it hits my wallet I will surely believe it

+JuanJose At least the retaliatory tariffs from the other countries are trying to strategically target Trump voters while sparing everybody else. It's Trump's own tariffs that will hit the majority of consumers. Steel and aluminum have a huge upstream industry use. Just think about that, the retaliators are being careful of affecting the least amount of the general population of the US than Trump is. The US is a huge economy, but even with that you can't just pick up a trade fight with Canada, Mexico, the EU, and China at the same time. It's going to be a blood bath if this keeps going. The only hope is they stick to their strategy of hitting only heavy Republican areas and leave most of the rest as untouched as possible. Yes, agricultural and rural America will be absolutely devastated by those countries targeting them together, but someone's gotta pay the price for Trump, and well, Trump strongest voters are the best choice. Note the countries are putting tariffs for maximum effect on the US, and minimal on their own. Consumers there won't be hurt much by a tariff on Levi's, bourbon, and Harleys. Mexico is already shifting orders of some produce to Brazil, and that may not come back. And make no mistake, despite the idea of Mexico seen in the movies with some shacks in the dirt where people ride donkeys, the southern neighbor is a massive export market for the US. It's bigger than China, Japan, and South Korea combined, or the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Ireland, Belgium, and Netherlands combined. For farming products it's an even bigger market force as it's a tremendous consumer US farms. Trump is not just entering a temporary trade war that would end after him, it's doing permanent damage. Europeans may not want to buy Harleys even after the sanctions are lifted for example, and there's nothing you can do, as now it's associated with Trump voters. You never know where the steel used in a product comes from, but you damn sure know where the bourbon is made. Who takes on their top 4 trade partners at the same time treating them like enemies? Top 5 if he goes along with the G7 threats, as it has Japan in it, which hasn't entered the struggle... yet.

wow, now that you say that, I can definitely see it.

I wouldn't say that no Americans like it, as a lot of his base in the Bible Belt states are still even now singing their praises of him. In the eyes of many of them, Trump could start a nuclear WW3 which leaves the US decimated and in ruins, and they would still shout their support for him. As a Canadian living in central Virginia, I see it every day, with folks still gladly cheering him on.

L. Spiro hate to say it but I have to disagree, if no one else agreed with this you’d find other republicans standing up to him. Unfortunately at least a quarter of the population seems to be in favour of this tariff bullshit

Why are you counting them as Americans? These tariffs are un-American, and by definition anyone in favor of them is not American.

+L. Spiro actually there are many Americans in favor of his actions, which is sad in itself. Also, you know what I find ironic? The biggest problems with the TPP were put in there by American special interests. The thing about corporations basically outranking countries on legal disputes wasn't put in there because Peru insisted. The worse parts were written by corporations and their lobbyists, and then passed on to the politicians they bought, and everything in secret. A trade deal of that size could've been very beneficial for the US, but it was negotiated in secret and in favor of special interests with no one representing the people.

There aren’t Americans in favor of his actions. Being American means fighting tyranny, protecting others, liberty, justice, etc. Being Donald Trump is un-American-literally against America-and by definition there are no Trump supporters, or even people who support his policies, who are American. Those claims are in direct conflict with each other.

Punishment

Coincidence...?

Is there an extra space in that special place?

Karma is real.

Walter 3579 For real? If so, that's not really funny. Although, Johns post is pretty clever.

Canada treats its indigenous population worse than America treats its black. Canadians are going to hell.

And they still have higher international standing than us because our president is a JOKE

+Zoran Cosic Also the General very likely understands the importance of having allies. Trump is pissing this away in astounding fashion. He berates the two neighbors any time he can. He goes against the EU. The cozies up to Russia and protects jobs in China after a company got caught, for the second time, openly violating US law. Trump is a risk to national security, not Canada.

Fully agreed!

at least they're consistent.

Nah, it's just that Kudlow was drunk.

worse. Cartman is smarter and he's in forth grade

can you even really describe that shit as "dairy"?
