Seriously, he's ridiculous, impeach him already. He's beyond ridiculous.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 2 points 15 hours ago

Wow. This is great!

Canada would not exist...

if the US hadn't lost the War of 1812, but you did and we do.

How can anyone listen to this idiot speak and sit there and nod like "uh huh yup that makes sense totally doesn't sound like a 5 year old talking out his ass making everything up as he goes"

[–] OldCrow@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

Well, the Alberta Premier thinks he's just the best! TRAITOR! TREASON! Tar and feather!

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

He's like they are

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A) be dumber than he is

B) be at least as evil as he is

C) Immense and unquenchable greed.

a significant number of americans

I honestly don’t think his base sees these clips. They don’t make it to Facebook or Fox News and everything else is “fake news”

"That's billions dollars we could be saving!" to bomb Iran

One day soon he'll die 🤞

[–] Hirom@beehaw.org 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The issue is larger than a single incompetent clown.

He was elected twice, with the support of the republican party and many big donnors. What prevents another narcisist, corrupt, incompetent clown from being elected?

[–] ehj@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Certainly not the nation of criminals. I wish them the most great and tremendous food shortages and subsequent famine. Oh and preventable disease epidemics from vaccine-curable diseases that used to be eradicated.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 days ago

I hope he does but he's just the rotten face of a very rotten country. I don't expect much will change when he dies

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago

He should have long ago, but he can't even do that right.

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

He's a symptom

Republicans and establishment DNC destroyed their country. Now it's a mindless husk.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Corporate owners (the oligarch class) who fund and therefore own the Rs and establishment Ds destroyed it. It's why swapping between Rs and Ds, or swapping individual Rs and Ds within the parties hasn't produced a measurable halt in the decline.

I'm excluding the recent progressive insurgency, we're yet to see where it goes and what its effect would be. There's some hope there.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

He's following up here on a threat to "will stop trade IF federal reserve doesn't lower interest rates", with "Stopping trade is the best idea ever under any circumstance". What has yet to crystalize into Canadian establishment/military policy is that Trump thinks part of the best idea ever is "Making Canada cease to exist".

Low interest rates back to when we were smart 25-30 years ago

The big problem that 9/11 solved for those who wanted US to go to war with Iraq was $10/bbl oil prices, under Clinton and bush43.

Sadly there's only 2/3rds of a white (trash) house to burn down this time.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

The Americans will burn it themselves. They almost did it in 2021. Just lie back and watch the train wreck.

Does anyone have a transcript? This video doesn't have any CC.

"Fart, Fart, Lie, Shart, Mumble, Fart, Lie"

[–] Alatarius@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

That sounds more coherent than anything else he's said before. 😂

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Fundamental misunderstanding of anything to do with economics

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 4 points 1 day ago

There is no CC for shit being thrown against a wall and sliding slowly down...

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Well of course it should exist - it's CANada not CAN'Tada.
