It's going to be interesting to see how everything with Canada plays out. Although I know America will come out on top but I'm hoping that Trump gives them a deal they can feel good about 😇

Hopefully Canada figures out a way to wrest themselves free of Trump's vengeful incompetence.

Is it a sad lesson learned by Mexico and Canada, that we are not the same neighbor they counted on in the past? 

Frankly, one might ask a similar question about the rest of our historical friends and allies.

Perhaps we've all heard from friends in other countries wondering what's going on.

Clearly, the damage is done.

At least our large protests inspire hope that we might successfully push back, and even encourage others to march against autocrats elsewhere.  I saw news of the Pride march in Budapest that drew 100,000, though Orban had banned it.

I hope someday we can build new bridges.  I wonder how.   I hesitate to trust politicians in DC to figure out where to begin.

This is mostly repeating one of my greatest hits I have posted elsewhere.

As far as Mexico goes, I now think there is a KISS principle involved here.  Are we too stupid and arrogant and gringo to learn from them?  As I said in a recent post Pew just found that 90 % of Mexicans give Trump's America a vote of no confidence.  America's image is declining in most of the world.  But Mexico is the off the charts leader of that. 

So I think it destroys this theory that there is maybe something about Latinos or Mexican Americans or whatever that draws them to Trump.  The ones who live in Mexico simply think he is an asshole.  And my interpretation of this fact is they have a wildly popular political model and a wildly popular leader that is all based around one question.  To oversimplify:  how do we help the Mexican working class? 

So if Democrats can learn from that, it is a model that arguably could work here.  I would love the irony of that.  Deport Mexicans, import their political model, kick Trump's ass, and help the US working class.  Works for me.

Meanwhile, the one thing I hope we can count on Trump for is to not start another Iraq War, like Bush did.  At first it seemed like Trump could at least do that much.  After he decided to bomb Iran, now we have to worry whether he will fuck that up , too. 

Just what America needs after abandoning Ukraine.  Another forever war, but one Trump can call his own.

As you said.  Clearly, the damage is done.  Putin must be thrilled.

The MAGA plan for health care ranges from an $11,000 - $24,000 (for a family of four) increase for the same insurance as they currently have.  Canada, cost is the same next year - zero $.

The Government of Canada is about to table it's annual budget with an estimated $100 billion dollar debt. A record amount.  The USA regime of the Incompetent-in-Chief goes into that much debt every four days.

The Canadian Liberal government tabled a national budget with a record $75 billion dollar annual national deficit.  It's was heavy on investments on national infrastructure - port expansions, LNG infrastructure, national housing program etc. - to begin moving the country's economy to great diversity of trading partners beyond the USA.  That's the level of debt this current Washington regime racks up in three days - three days.  MAGA goes into debt to give tax breaks to billionaires. Canada goes into (much smaller) debt to build national infrastructure.

Got it.

But, seriously.  Was there ever even a question?

 

I mean, we all know Trump's ego is boundless.

But even he'd probably admit that the Canadian leader was hotter.

Although I guess with Carney we have to say Canada is a bit older and wiser,

I know the Incompetent-in-Chief is puckered up for him, but would you stick a dick in his mouth?  The real reason the Incompetent-in-Chief is mad about the CUSMA trade agreement.  Rejection

Trump probably appreciates a nice c0ck.  Not that often he got to see what that looks like.

Circling back ..

Didn't  Malavia enjoy a little maple syrup?

 

 

 

Has the poor girl has been locked in with micro-Peen Donny since she was a teenager?

Hopefully she's tried a real penis now and then, over the years.

When donOLD inevitably kicks the golden bucket, and as all the worldwide celebrations are winding down, will Trophy Wife be obligated to attend his funeral if there's no guarantee she'll get her usual public appearance fee? Would it be appropriate for her to just autopen her signature on a Hallmark sympathy card and mail it to one of donOLD's spawn?

Canada's NICE Agent 

 

[Pete1111]

I flew from the US to Toronto long long time ago, to use some frequent flyer miles.  "Why not Toronto?" I thought. 

The incoming process was so easy.  Perhaps it was my youthful innocent lewk!  😆 

But coming back...not pleasant.  The US border agent was an A hole.  

Side note, I visited the gay bookstore in Toronto.  Over the years it has gained the status of oldest gay bookstore in the world, according to the Internet.  I still have the book I bought.

Good thing you made the trip before Trump declares war on Canada for "maple syrup" abuse !

Another good thing, there's also less White House censorship of the media in Canada.

The one political leader in Canada with her head up the Mad King's ass is going to get economically screwed by the Mad King's crimes.  Yet more proof of the Mad King's lack of loyalties to anyone other than himself.

I've been enjoying Heated Rivalry.  Can't we start a war with Canada over that?

There are far too many guys in Canada who are pretty and Gay.  How fucking DEI is that?  Some of em are no doubt Black or Asian as well.  Ugh!

I suppose it helps that some of the pretty Gays play hockey well.  But too well.  They must cheat.  That's a good reason for a war with Trump.

Of course, the pretty Gay one likes to suck Russian cock.  At least Trump can relate to that part.  Maybe there's hope for peace.
