"Trade is not fundamentally about competition. It's not us versus Canada. It's us & Canada." It's really about cooperation. If the US won't cooperate reliably with Canada, we shouldn't be surprised when Canada looks for new friends to cooperate with.
The result: Americans miss out. #cdnpoli

Is it fair to say that you’re concluding that China is a more predictable & maybe reliable partner to Canada than the United States is today? Carney: In terms of the way our relationship has progressed in recent months with China, it is more predictable — & you see results coming from that #cdnpoli

BRENNAN: What percentage of those you have in custody have committed crimes?
NOEM: 70% of them
B: It's not 70%
N: Yes it is. You guys pick and choose numbers
B: Your agency says 47% have criminal convictions
N: Wrong again. We'll get you the correct numbers

Trump: "Hi Laura. Boy, you are something. What spirit you have. Laura Loomer. Thank you honey. You know, she can be a little nasty, but to me she's always nice."

What a stupid fool.
Trump: We are bringing medicine down by many times -- and there are two ways of calculating, you could say 1000%, 2000%, or 90% or 80%. The Democrats want you to say 90 or 80, but there are two ways of calculating it

That's the pot calling the kettle black. Everything he says about Massie is true of himself. Compare this goon to the Prime Minister of Canada. See how tRump measures up. He doesn't. At all. You should get him out of there before his goon squad kills all of you.
Trump: Massie, something wrong with the guy. If you have clinical psychiatrists, check out his mind. But he's a very bad person. He’s a bad American.

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

Ogles: "It's important that we have a stake in Greenland, that they are quite frankly a protectorate of the US. They've been in relationship with Denmark - that needs to end. We've spilled more blood protecting Greenland than the Danes... we are the dominant predator force in the Western Hemisphere"

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?
This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.
