“Nobody knows more about bankrupting your own businesses like I do. People ask me, how can you bankrupt a casino? They’re money printers! And I tell them, I’m the best there is at it. I’m going to make this country the most bankrupt country there is and it is going to be so beautiful. People love me for this. They love me bigly.”

It’s not dumb only if their intent is to destroy the US and the West from within for Putin.

I’m glad the gloves are being thrown and they call it for what it is. That delicate diplomatic dance that lead up to this was clearly not working.

Yeah, accuse someone who just wants his country to survive a constant and ongoing aggression of “gambling with World War III”, and kiss the ass of the aggressor despot who constantly threatens to nuke the world if someone looks at him wrong.

What if they’re stalking their prey?

It was all a trap.

They just invited him over so they can try to bully him and attack his character with bullshit arguments in front of everyone so they can have that “tough guy” image for their moronic supporters. How fucking pathetic.

No one will want to go over to the US to negotiate anything now.

“All you have to do is just pay attention!”

It’s a betrayal of Ukraine, Europe, NATO, the western world and America.

• Owns casinos
• Bullies people
• Is a rapist
• Married a trophy wife
• Made his fortune by cheating the system
• Would have been no more than a crappy car detailer in a good timeline

Yup, that checks out. That’s what we get instead of hoverboards.

They’re essentially used like light grenades

They forgot to include Kinder Surprise eggs. Those are absolutely deadly to Americans.

Trump has a long history of backstabbing and burning bridges with people he wants to “do business with”. If Trump was actually hoping to gain access to Ukraine’s mineral wealth he can forget about it. Zelenskyy has been standing strong against Russia’s aggression for years. Ukraine knows how bad it is to be the puppet state of another state that doesn’t actually care about them. He ain’t going to take any of Trump’s shit.

Trump is a Russian asset and a traitor. How much more evidence do you need?

Leave it to the convicted rapist to blame the victim.

There are claims that just before the accident, someone said on the radio: “Do a barrel roll!”

That’s the thing: It’s all bluff. The main goal is to scare away investments in the Canadian part of the industry by creating unpredictability. He’s trying to sabotage our economy. Even if he doesn’t actually follow through with it or doesn’t keep them on for very long the effect will be very real. What a fucking ally he is…

I just hope that industries catch on to this and start ignoring him.

He is clearly doing this to put pressure on the American automakers who absorbed the Canadian industry to make the huge expenses of rearranging their supply chains to no longer involve the Canadian part. No one will win from this.

Canadians already have a chip on their shoulder about most of their industries having been gradually absorbed by their bigger US counterparts over the decades, leaving them now with only few industries of their own. After having absorbed and exploited it, he wants to destroy it.

Claiming that they “stole” the industry is adding insult to injury. If Trump ever visits Canada he will be met by an angry lynch mob.

My grandfather was in Alsace-Lorraine during the German occupation in WWII. Thanks to a warning from a neighboring village he barely escaped being drafted into the Nazi army and had to go into hiding, surviving in the forest on his own until the end of the war. He never admitted whether he ever had to kill someone or not. But my mother remembers hearing him scream every night from the nightmares.

Now I’m in Canada and I’m wondering if this kind of thing is going to become a family tradition.

This is the ant equivalent of Monty Python’s “Bring out your dead” skit

If you cover it in a glow in the dark material, preferably something that glows bright for a relatively short period of time, people could make drawings on it.
