The problem is the US can't really afford any of this at this point. At a point where the US needed to just run with a strong economy with lower inflation and solved supply chain he decided to slam on the brakes.
Trump is under the illusion that if he cuts enough U.S. federal agencies and lets DOGE fire enough federal employees...they will have enough money for his budget agenda and to buy Canada, Greenland, mineral rights to Ukraine, and Gaza. Toronto, Canada alone would cost the United States around 1 trillion dollars with a yearly budget of almost 20 billion dollars. Yet, Trump could be also thinking IF the United States owned Canada...it would improve their global rankings in quality of life while making the United States an empire like it could have been back in the 18th century to rival Britain...a country the U.S. continued to fear even during WWII. #colonialization wrbtrader
Americans have a problem in that they allow Trump to promote policies that make them the enemy of Canadians. And the weak ass Republicans more often then not just roll with his decisions. We have to take this at face value. It'll all blow up in their face given time but it's hard to like many of these Americans who openly champion all this crap.
He had a long run and retired. If all you got now is laughing about Trudeau you really have nothing. Trump on the other hand is well beyond his best before date and shows every sign of being a psychopath. We dropped Trudeau you re-elected Trump. And my oh my the damage he is doing is quite spectacular lol. Markets are down wonder why lol.
