I hear the same from my Canadian relatives. They're plenty pissed.
Hell, they're not even apologizing.

I’m at least discriminating. I take it all out on the two resident MAGAts here. Those two and any fellow Canadians that show slightest sympathy for MAGAtism and its demogogue
leadercult figure. -

Nope. And that’s the bitch of it, ain’t it?
What do you like most? (I’m not saying there aren’t any pros, more trying to understand which ones outweigh burning down our trade relationships)
That’s the one issue that’s got me floored and up in arms, I suppose. Everything else I’d be happy to tune out like I did with Biden.

Let’s start with the fact that (at least ostensibly) a school is not going to be able to make health decisions for my child, contrary to my desires or wishes. That hospitals and clinics are being forced to stop handing out chemical castration drugs and cross sex hormones to confused kids that need help. That they aren’t going to be able to destroy a young woman’s body because she is confused and scared of puberty. That right there is all I need. Oh, this tariff situation is gonna suck big time. But we aren’t going to passively let children mutilated their bodies. This economic stuff is stupid as hell, but the opposition party’s position on GAC, minors, and Parental Rights? That’s pure fucking evil.

Top White House and administration officials have been promising businesses, consumers and fellow Republicans more “certainty” on trade in the coming days, eager to calm skittish markets and avoid the stock market plunge that accompanied the White House’s initial tariff roll-outs.
But they have one problem: Donald J. Trump.

Thanks! I want to share that. I wonder if I can find the non-X video?

What Reagan is saying seems so obvious. I understand that Trump possibly actually doesn't get it, but it's so disappointing that so few of the rest of them are willing to admit it.

Suck it up, 401(k) people. Suck it up. We’re storming the beaches of Normandy.
Ah, the old 'Compare it to WW2' ploy. It seems to work for Nigel Farage. Maybe Trump will appear in green wellingtons and a stupid hat next, pretending to be a farmer.
Some British wag suggested that Britain could revitalize the British aerospace industry following Brexit by going back to building Spitfires and Lancaster bombers.
The funniest one is when people talk about 'The Dunkirk Spirit'. Because coping with humiliating defeats is what Brits do best.

I don’t understand how you let one idiot take down a country like this. There is no national emergency.
Name a single executive order by previous Presidents that’s even in the same galaxy as impactful as this.

And there's just no point to any of it. Our savings are being tanked, in order to initiate a process which will end up with higher prices on everything.
For factory jobs, I guess. More factory jobs.

The only possible excuse is "It's a negotiating tactic".
Trump's problem is he really believes he's a genius. Dunning Kruger.
