In the past every time we say no one respects Trump, MAGA pretends like threatening to nuke a country equals respect. Here is another country telling you to your face how weak we are right now. Are you smart enough to be able to listen? We both know you’re not.
The sheer number of lies from President Trump about Canada – growing again today – is remarkable. Just some fact checks from the last 18 months:
- Trump falsely said today that Canada's unemployment rate is "10% and rapidly rising,” though it is 6.4% (under the Canadian method that adds about a percentage point) and has been declining for three months
- Trump falsely said today that Canada does 95% of its business with the US, though 72% of Canadian exports went to the US last year
- Trump falsely said today that high Canadian agricultural tariffs have caused the entire US trade deficit with Canada, though that deficit is overwhelmingly caused by US imports of cheap Canadian crude and though something like 97% of US ag exports to Canada are tariff-free
- Trump has falsely said Canada generally doesn’t “take” US agricultural exports, though Canada is the world’s second-biggest buyer of those exports
- Trump has falsely said the Canadian public likes the idea of becoming the 51st state, which the Canadian public overwhelmingly opposes
- Trump has falsely said Canada is one of the world’s highest-tariff countries, though it is actually low in WTO global rankings
- Trump has falsely said Canada essentially doesn't have a military, though its military has fought with the US in multiple wars and its force size ranks in the upper half of NATO
- Trump has falsely said Canada hiked its dairy tariffs during the Biden administration, though they hadn’t changed since Trump’s first presidency
- Trump has falsely said the US trade deficit with Canada is “$200 billion,” though it is nowhere close
- Trump has falsely said Canada prohibits US banks, though it doesn't and though more than a dozen US banks were operating in Canada at the time he spoke
- Trump has falsely said Canada is “constantly surrounded” by Chinese and Russian ships, though that is fiction
- Trump has falsely said then-outgoing PM Trudeau was using their trade battle to run again for prime minister, though Trudeau obviously wasn’t running
@LongfieldAlice@ddale8 Can you point out just one of Daniel's listed items that is untrue? Also, do you know that you can end a sentence without an exclamation mark?
@LucasSa56947288 "How dare you fight back when we try to steal your lunch money! Why can't you be like those other countries that handed it over without a fight?"
Want to learn the Trump family history in the most comical way possible? This is your video. The last couple of lines are worth the entire thing and I was rolling through all of it.
McGowan: The president's personal defense attorney should not be the attorney general. The man who ignored the Epstein victims and then moved Ghislaine Maxwell from a maximum security prison to where she is now, should not be the attorney general.
I think Cassidy is a spineless coward. I can't believe he did this. He already wrecked it for us confirmation of RFK Jr.. He's a doctor. He knows better. Our health is worse because of that decision.
I think it doesn't matter if Cassidy voted yes or no. If he had decided to vote no, they would have got Lisa Murkowski or Susan Collins to vote yes
