Summary
In a virtual speech at the World Economic Forum, Trump suggested Canada could become a U.S. state to avoid his proposed tariffs on imports.
The remark elicited gasps from the audience.
Trump claimed the U.S. does not need Canadian lumber, energy, or vehicles, vastly overstating the trade deficit between the two nations.
He reiterated his intention to impose tariffs, potentially as high as 25%, on imports from Canada and Mexico starting February 1.
Economists warn such tariffs would raise prices for U.S. consumers.
The US consumers voted for Trump to lower the price of eggs.
The price of eggs is soaring today. Why? Because bird flu is killing chicken.
So what does Trump do? He cancels research on bird flu. Surely the irony won’t be missed on the magats who voted him in.
And now this: aggression against allied nations that will result in more price hikes. More irony for the maga morons to enjoy.
It’s only been 4 days. It’s gonna be a long 4 years…
Trump won’t tolerate the 2028 election to remove him.
The Civil War Part2 ocean-of-slaughter begins then.
Please do not rely on hopium to protect you & your loved-ones.
Please begin getting capable, or out, now.

If he slaps massive tariffs, the prices will go through the roof. If USA annexes Canada, the prices should go down, and I guess that’s was the plan.
Been a while since Canadians burnt down the white house. Looking more and more like the Americans need another spanking to put them in their place.
At this rate, I think a few Americans might help.
Plot twist: USA ends up joining Canada. Oh, and the dairy prices go down as a result of trading flourishing inside a new vast nation.

This time we should block the doors first.
Cause it’s working so well for Russia.
It’s working OK for Putin. Trump sees this.
The stupid fucking idiots in the maga party will blame Biden.
Oh… You have some completely unrealistic faith on Humanity…
Of course they will miss the irony. And in 4 years, they will claim the constant 4 years of inflation on Biden.
Someone forgot their /s
You might have hit reply on the wrong comment
The term ‘magat’ is just so on the nose, no matter how deep you go with the analogy.
A maggot is a mindless sack of flesh that wriggles and writhes all over itself and its neighbors, feeding on a constant diet of rot and decay. And if it survives that stage? It becomes a fly, attracted to steaming piles of shit, regurgitating the same diet that it feeds on just to consume it again, and then buzzing off to distract, annoy, and generally piss off the regular folk who are just trying to get on with their day.
Sorry, but Kahneman1-mind, imprint->reaction mind, including all ideology/prejudice/“religion”,
CANNOT solve the problem that Kahneman1-mind created.
Einstein got that right: a different level of mind is required to dismantle the problems created with a particular level of mind.
Cultivating automatic-prejudice against MAGA cult members just polarizes things even more.
Only Kahneman2-mind, considered-reasoning, CAN counter ideology’s highjacking-of-the-entire-planet-for-its-tantrum, that it’s working-up-to, this decade.

Someone would have to explain the concept of irony to them first.
