The president-elect recently quipped that Canada should become the 51st state and has proposed imposing tariffs on the country.
Summary
Trump mocked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the “governor” of the “Great State of Canada” on Truth Social, following recent discussions about tariffs on Canada.
Trump has joked about Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state, linking the idea to U.S. trade deficits with Canada and Mexico.
Trudeau, responding to tariff threats, pledged to counter any unfair trade measures.
The remarks have sparked lighthearted responses, including Ontario Premier Doug Ford joking about the War of 1812 and Sen. Bernie Sanders referencing Canada’s healthcare system.
And exactly why, as an adult, can't I vote for "no work on Fridays"? Why can't I decide for myself as adult "I don't want to spend money on universal healthcare, I want to spend it on weed, and if tomorrow I get cancer I'll happily die, I'll take that gamble". Who are you, anon, to take that choice away from me and, who the f are you to dictate me how to responsibly live my life?
And if you think you know what's best for me, or for whoever else voted for the "wrong for them" politician, then you're simply against democracy. State this clearly "I know what's best for people, and they don't cuz they're sheep trusting the wolf".
And suddenly instead of being a resistance fighter you turn into a benevolent superior being whose help is somehow unappreciated. A very different picture in my opinion.
