Why is America always a victim and yet they are the most powerful country?

[Curtx]

It’s a big day for America to lose all its allies, I can’t wait for him to “highlight” all the unfair trade practices. Will we be getting specific lines from the trade agreement that are an issue or is he just going to spit out random numbers like he normally does?

[Chemist]

Canada. Will no longer talk to Trump. Do what you want and the consequences will be yours.

[Tirghra]

She is so gleeful. She's so excited to see the dissolving of our relationships with the world. This is frightening and sad, why is she so thrilled? Its like she is announcing the beginning of the worlds' fair or something. Creepy

[sarauniyaGH]

Every single press secretary of the Trump administrations have all been the same kind of insufferable, mindless robot with stupid smirks on their very punchable faces. Incredibly maddening.

[SylvieProvost-eg]

I hope Canada will turn off your electricity. Just to begin.

[sahgentpeppah]

She lost me when she said "The president has been very clear" WHEN?

[juliep.]

When 'everyone' is a problem, maybe have a look to oneself 🙈.

[jennamurphy]

I’m really excited because it’s going to change our economy drastically and after the initial growing pains Canadians will be more self reliant than ever.

[dougbouchard]

The day America lost power. Ontario power, as in electricity. No more cheap hydro rates for you.

[kshitizsiwakoti]

Seriously questioning the intelligence of Americans for electing an incompetent guy twice

[Danta]

She's either pretending to be clueless or really dumb

[Lala-vxos]

Ohhh, so scared, we're shaking in our little hockey skates. 🇨🇦

[UOttawaScotty]

Oh so its not just Canada now ? The whole world lol! Enjoy your "big day" by yourselves !

[jekabskarklins]

At this point no one takes Trumps claims seriously 😅. Nobody's ripped off, and tariffs just make economics worse for everyone.

[Kaoniao]

She forgot to mention that the tariffs are mostly paid by American citizens. I do not see a reason to celebrate.

[scotthilderman]

We had the stone age, bronze and iron ages, the information age, and now the dumb dumb age.

[thetheo]

F35 bye bye, Canadian potash bye bye, ag sales bye bye, tourism bye bye, American services bye bye, military allies bye bye, radar systems bye bye, Trump is the worst businessman business has ever witnessed 😂

[mafifa]

her facial expressions with that smirky smile make me so angry somehow
