Isn’t it funny how all these other countries hate us and complain about us but they love living under the umbrella of security we provide to the world. If it wasn’t for the threat of the U.S. Military the bad guys would have taken over the world a long time ago.

Not sure what this is about.

China, like the USA, is always trying to expand its economic footprint, and you act like it's terrorism.

Well, they are communists who are in the middle of their 100 year plan to undermine and conquer the West.

Trump seems to be the only person to recognize it and call it out.

Ironically, China prospered by opening up to new market reforms.

Donny loves XI

“Think of President Xi. Central casting, brilliant guy. You know, when I say he’s brilliant, everyone says, ‘Oh that’s terrible,'” said Trump during the event. “Well, he runs 1.4 billion people with an iron fist. Smart, brilliant, everything perfect.

No one is stating the obvious. We are more of a threat because we share a border with them. China isn't about to attack Canada. I doubt we will either but the proximity alone makes it more concerning.

Yep. I'm just 30 miles from the border.

Maybe Canadians see ridiculous tariffs as a threat to their economic security?

Between the powers that be in China and the USA, which ones have actually stated they want to take over Canada?


Publicly? None

Trump never claimed to want to take it over. He just said Canada would make a great state, or a cherished 51st state. Nice try there though Roger.

Fair point.

We would never attack Canada, but, who knows, we might lure some of the freedom-minded provinces to join us one by one. Ottawa seems to dislike its own people and heritage.

You are obviously unable to differentiate between snark and a real threat

I’m guessing you are still convinced that Trump actually asked Russia to send us Hillary Clinton’s emails…

You are either being obtuse or straight up lying

Or you struggle to understand how Trump negotiates…

You obviously are neurotic and afraid of your own shadow.

The country that shares a border with you is going to be more feared than one across the globe, particularly one going on a "regime change" binge.

Common sense seems to have fallen into the MAGA black hole.

Well they’re liberal and retarded.

The libtards will die from their elbows up BS.

They need to negotiate realistically. America is no longer fighting Russia in the cold war by financially carrying or allies.

They need to wake up, smell the coffee, and realistically negotiate.

They won’t. They are screwed. They are already losing their economy after a decade of liberty hating leftist libtarded government.

Canada is a democracy, so the people are getting what they’re asking for.

Just today it was reported, “Government approval has reached a new high, the Liberals hold a 10-point lead over the Conservatives, and optimism about the direction of the country continues to be relatively high.”

This will not end well. China won’t buy their manufactured goods and neither will the EU. America is their customer, and the customer is always right.

They believe the anti Trump diatribe of the DNC/MSM Political Complex. They actually think the Democrats will gain control and give them unfair advantage like Bill Clinton and his predecessors including republicans did. Not happening.

You really believe there has been a threat of actual takeover of Canada?

Canada is, at best, 2nd place when it comes to hockey.



The biggest threat we are to them is another stomping on the ice.

Ask a Canadian.

Do you know any or are you blindly lashing out?

The sad thing is we could have strengthened our economic partnership, instead Donny let his ego give China a bigger foothold in Canada.

It’s more than that. The interruption of the status quo has made the feel anxiety. They know how much they rely on the U.S. and they got rocked with Trump not wanting the trade deficits and such.
