🚨BREAKING: TRUMP JUST HAD HIS WORST MELTDOWN EVER.
Trump completely unravels when Kristen Welker challenged him on his California election claims.
Instead of providing evidence, he called her "crooked" and "stupid," attacked the press, and abruptly WALKS OUT in the middle of the interview.
She did what every journalist should do every time Trump spews his unfounded bullsh*t.
Thank you, Kristen.
Let me add my voice to this: I have never heard the Prime Minister raise his voice to MPs. What I have experienced is the most open, transparent, consultative leader ever since being elected in 2008. Demanding? Yes. Inappropriate? Never. https://t.co/A4fj9zayd5
@barontrump47 NFW. We do not want our children shot in school, bankruptcy after a heart attack or to have our head of state being a lying, malignant narcissistic, demented felon. No thank you. Never. 🇨🇦
Trump to Wisconsin farmers: "Canada's been very rough"
The administration that started an unprovoked trade war and tried to annex us dwells in an alternate reality where USA is the victim of vicious Canadian bullying.
Premier Doug Ford says other North American leaders “think it’s a joke” that Ontario doesn’t have a dedicated government jet.
He made the comment Thursday while defending his use of chartered flights from Toronto to Ottawa, arguing that flying commercially can consume an entire workday.
“We’ve got to stop treating Ontario like a banana republic, because that’s what it’s being treated like,” he said. Full story icymi: https://t.co/AJI2vzyr0H
As Ambassador to Canada, a key function is to understand and communicate Canada's needs and desires back to Washington.
It's a position of understanding rather than a position of imposition of your President's misguided will.
Trump thinks and wants us to be the 51st State and that will never happen. He does not know what Canadians are made of. We fought in WW2 before they could even decide whether to shit or get off the pot. Canadians were one of the most feared forces on earth and we would rather die than bow down to that prick! You will never take over Canada!
I confidently speak for ALL Canadians when I say that we, the entire beautiful country of Canada, have zero intention nor desire to join the US as their 51st state. Trading partners? Sure! BFFs? Done!
51st state? Not on your life. No thanks.
Nope.
Never.
😘
@WakeUpPatriott Not happening! 🇨🇦 Why on earth would we want to join a country where our kids could be shot at school, a heart attack would bankrupt us and we would have a lying, convicted malignant demented narcissist as leader? It does not matter what you Americans think. We are sovereign.
If there is anyone with power in the Canadian government with a shred of self-pride they'll eject this irredeemable man from our great sovereign nation.
🇺🇸🇨🇦L'ambassadeur états-unien au Canada soutient la revendication de Trump de faire du Canada le 51ème État.
Il est difficile de comprendre même comment un ambassadeur officiel peut oser poster un message pareil.
Il nie littéralement le droit à l'existence de l'État dans lequel il est en poste. Il insulte l'entièreté des Canadiens et leurs institutions démocratiques. C'est une atteinte profonde à l'indépendance même du Canada. Bref, c'est un immense insulte diplomatique.
Cette diplomatie de l'insulte voulue par Trump n'a pourtant presque jamais porté ses fruits. D'America First, Trump se dirige vers un America Alone ce qui ne semble pas l'inquiéter plus que cela. Il semble déterminé à faire ce qu'il veut sans se soucier des conséquences de ses actes une fois qu'il ne sera plus au pouvoir.
Pour le Canada, ce post de l'ambassadeur US est une insulte intolérable et mérite amplement son renvoi immédiat. Ottawa et Washington ont toujours été extrêmement proches et voir ainsi les USA saccager la relation entre le Canada et les États-Unis, c'est vraiment un coup de poignard dans le dos.
Que restera-t-il de cette relation bilatérale lorsque Trump sera parti ? Des accords pourront être signés à nouveau, et sans doute qu'il y en aura, mais la confiance et l'amitié entre les peuples mettra des décennies à se réparer.
Bon courage aux Canadiens, il reste encore 2 ans et demi à tenir.
