It’s blatant extortion now.
Why does Trump want the US to be great again? 🤔 It seems like the US can’t be great and humble anymore under the Trump administration. 🤷♂️
Trump needs to be removed for this and it’s not an exaggeration to say there are at least a dozen other unconstitutional things he’s done that he should be removed for as well. But the GOP-held congress doesn’t care about the constitution either so this is only going to continue to get worse.
The US’ most important good is intellectual property. They rely on other countries to protect their IP. If you no longer rely on them for trade because theyre tariffing the shit out of your country, you don’t need to appease them anymore by protecting their IP.
Up until the early 90s, the Dominican Republic had a local cable TV network. This network pretty much had a monopoly, it was dirt cheap and included all the premium American satellite/cable TV networks. You name it, it had it.
Obviously this company never bothered to license any of it and just sent some dude to Miami from time to time to renew his individual satellite package so it could be pipe to an entire country. Neat “business model”, not local laws where broken and the US companies couldn’t do much about it.
The fun came to a stop when the US threatened to revoke free-trade deals it had done with the State and pressured the Government to clamp down on the cable TV provider.
I wonder if Canada can make its own streaming service to Canadians which provides all of the content from Netflix, prime, Disney, etc in one location for cheap because all the content is pirated by the government itself.
I would rather fucking die.
Sad… 😔
Canadians, they just want your chickens and eggs.
Trump is a moron who is courting WW3. Also water is wet. NEWS AT 11!
Canada, this guy ain’t gonna learn until you burn it down a second time.
With the help of American military.
He needs to find a more productive obsession that’s much less likely to lead to a war, like building model boats.
I miss the good old days when he just obsessed about fucking his daughter instead of my country.
Or take up painting.
It worked for Bush Jr. but only after he fucked up everything with the “War on Terror”. We’re still picking the pieces up from that mess.
If it were a just world, nearly all US presidents would be tried at the Hauge.
Well this shit is likely not helping american military moral, which is good since this war will be rough and Canada needs every advantage/deserter available.
I do not want to see my military try to engage in any kind of combat with the hockey playing back to back war crime champs up north.
So Trump is cool with Canadians moving to the USA and getting a job?
They don’t have to! We just want the dirt part of Canada.
Just like he wants the dirt part of Gaza. The people should move on to magical lands such as Greenland, Blue land, but most preferably brown land south.
Imagine being so stupid as to vote for little d over the price of eggs and getting a war with Canada.
Also imagine being so stupid as to, among other things, threaten to annex Greenland and then also ask Denmark to export eggs to America.
In case people don’t realize. Canada shares an Arctic border with Russia and Russia is trying to take Canadian land and regularly crosses into our waters to steal resources. It is of benefit to Putin for Canada to be weak and distracted by Trump, since Trump works for Putin, it’s very clear why he’s doing this
We need our own nuclear force.
How would that help?
He bends over for putin all the time. Strange…
Please remember that all this is noise to hide the great billionaire sacking of america. Smoke screen.
Have these random programs actually helped Americans?
To my naive view, would America not he better served with a far more progressive tax system, in lieu of spending these large sums to foreign countries and various agencies that squander what could be given to the poor?
In what world is giving the poor more money directly not he an effective means of raising their standard of living, which should be the main point of a progressive government?
They are in the process of transitioning to a government that does not care about the people and does not provide for them. People here aren’t going to get any benefit. Just like with the Empire, the only ones who reap any benefits are the Oligarchs.
Maybe, but that’s not what he’s doing. He’s raising taxes on the poor while cutting social programs and not giving anyone but billionaires money.
Great take. I agree. We know this from Project 2025. Keep an eye on it but don’t let it distract. Trump and cronies are using a strategy coined flood the zone to prevent coordinated opposition against them in politics and media.
I genuinely thinks he also wants to annex canada though
If he makes Canada a state, he loses control of Congress.
He would never do that.
Or he could go the Puerto Rico route.
He would never let Canadians vote. He may never let Americans vote again.
It’s very interesting that he is criminalizing climate change, while seeking to take over the lands that would benefit from climate change.
There’s another fella across the ocean that is accelerating climate change because it will benefit his country.
Remember Greenland… He seems like he forgot now.
He’s still saying he wants to invade Greenland and Panama.
I hope that people in the Pentagon remember that following illegal orders is a crime, too, and you cannot be forced to do so. Something established in Nürnberg when they took care of the Nazis.
An order to attack Canada, Mexico, Greenland, or Panama would basically be such an illegal order.
This is not the first time the US has made up bullshit in order to attack a country: WMDs in Iraq, communism in Vietnam, Russia said there were nazis in Ukraine to justify that war. The military only needs a lie and then it’s not illegal anymore. The lies are already circulating. “canada is communist” “canada hurts the US”
