reposting this  
since the Orange Blob is hitting Canadian products with a 25% tariff at midnight tonight I suggest hitting the Puppet Master Elon with a 100% tariff on Teslas since he doesn’t manufacture them here it won’t hurt canadian workers, and ppl wanting electric cars can buy other brands

I will be very curious to see how Canada responds to this stupidity.

Well watch Justin’s response and tell me how he is a terrible Canadian so I can slap you upside the head.

I choose to respond by making sure the next computer I buy does not have some US Corporate OS on it.

Yes, Justin had a good press conference yesterday. I love Apple products. If this goes completely awry I will re-think my purchases going forward.

It gets weird if you _really_ don’t want to buy American. So I shouldn’t get an iPhone? Buy a Samsung unit? I really hope that Trump is on to a new disaster so he forgets about our tariffs. haha

True. The iPhone is made in China, but, it’s American. I had a OnePlus. I stopped buying Chinese tech after China held our people hostage for several years. Maybe Samsung?

The guy’s so demented he’s booting poor legitimately oppressed refugees out and wants to let the most privileged Afrikaaners in as refugees, tells sports teams who they let play in their games and thinks Gaza is Israel’s to ‘give’ and America’s to ‘have’.  
Let’s just ignore him until the GOP finds the balls to Article 25 him out of office.

I would love to see the GOP invoke article 25! Trump is clearly medically unfit to serve(he’s a lunatic). However, the GOP is terrified of him; they’re unlikely to do anything now. Maybe if Trump shows up at a press conference without pants?! Heh

I always suspected Trump has more dirt on more people than J Edgar Hoover ever collected.

He was friendly with Epstein so maybe he gave Trump dirt on individuals. The US is a dumpster fire.
