Trump also caused China to cut the flow of Rare Earth Minerals to the US which lead to the attempt to extort Ukraine of its natural resources. Similar situation , failure to recognize that China is supplying the raw materials driving the surge in technical advancement. To then try to deny the product of that raw material supply, aka cutting edge Chips.. back to China, is moronic. In Trumps world a Win/Win is a sign of weakness...except now China cut off the US from supply and there is no replacement.... Annnnnnnnd so the logical move is to pick other things being supplied and do the same to Canada..... when Canada pulls the plug on supply, the result will be the same. EVERYONE worldwide should take note and begin cutting supplies to the US and ceasing dependance on US manufacturers in favor of those with governments who will accept Mutually beneficial relationships as what they are...a Win/Win. China and Canada should deepen ties. Ukraine is better off working with Russia than allowing itself to be extorted. Everyone else should distance themselves from the US and honestly this damage Trump is doing will take decades to undo. The US is not reliable so long as they fail recognize international law and fair trade when it doesnt suit them... this is good for noone, but it will be worst on the US. Thats how WW2 started... Tariffs collapsed the German economy. Caused the Great depression. Germany and its people were forced into a corner. This is what Trump and his masters are trying to do. Starting WW3 is on someones agenda and whomever that is is also pulling Trumps strings. Bad times ahead

Well done Canada! We love and support you! We had to go through a virus pandemic, a War, and now a trade war, what madman would do such a horrible thing for the people around the world?! There’s no peace as long as the political system stays the same! Horrible! This is what Russia and China want all along ! They wanted everyone to go against the US! Trump has shot himself and his policies on the foot and it will be dire for the US in the long run! OMG

He is sure a good bs er just become a state to the US. He is scared. Americans will be just fine. And say thanks to the nice boarder patrol that yelled and ridiculed me when I was a nice guy going to Canada to ride bikes at whistler a few years back and accusing me of smelling like alcohol and I was completely sober with my friend. Canada is a crap shoot. Good luck.

YES. As a US citizen, I beseech world leaders to stand together for sanity and compassion in the face of the deception, manipulation, disrespect, and amoral actions of our president and his administration. \n Many of us will be applying pressure from the inside. \n May we all create a global force for healing of our modern culture's destructive ways !!!

Russia for sure is lovely all this drama and Trump taking a wrecking ball to the US and it’s relationships around the world. They will take advantage of this chaos if he gets what he wants from the Ukraine war he will be en powered and will use Trump who is so far up his arse to continue to take land.

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

Trump has destroyed trust in US allies, and it can ont be repaired easy. Trust can be destroyed in minutes, but it takes many years, maybe decades, before it can be gained again. It affects not only what US experiences right now with Canada and Mexico. Be sure that even Taiwan Australia and all other Asian allies are questioning right now if USA can be trusted. Imagine, Trumps breaks a treaty with Canada and Mexico which he personally has established in his first presidency and sold to his people as the greatest deal that has ever been archieved. Tells you a lot about US credebility. Trump is right now destroing world order which has been established mainly by USA after WW2.\nI heared, that there are rumors, that Trump might be a Russian KGB agent since 1987. I don't know if that is true, but it would explain a lot of why Trump is acting as he does - it is not in the interest of USA, pressurizing/blackmailing/offending/humiliating US allies and destroying US and foreign economies. This is practically enacting a wishlist of foreign dictators like Putin and Xi Chin Ping.\nIt certainly will not make America great again, but poorer, weaker and internationally isolated. it will be US people that will suffer the most.

Soon the entire civilized world will be sending the US. The value of the American dollar and the economy is falling.

I don't think what he said was strong enough this isn't dumb this is absolute stupidity can some one explain what has driven the US to shit on its friends and allies and pivot towards Russia, North Korea and what Reagan calmed the evil empires is this what MAGA really wanted because rather than make America great its going to make it a banana Republic I mean wurhough nukes that is what Russia has proven to be. If the US can do this to Canada can any former Allie trust the US they now will all wonder when the Bagman will visit seeking Donald's protection money ? this isn't dumb this is absolute stupidity and if its a planned strategy the end game seems diabolical if not Criminal ?

jUSTIN you blew every China man you could, you trained their military they are a hell of alot worse than Russia. Did you forget COVID they unleashed on the entire world - your buddies. You spineless creature why did you not stop the Fentanyl? You have free loaded off of us for too long - Americans really don't need Casto's kid giving us advise. Americans love the Canadian people but we laugh and shake our heads at your government. We will have Green land and you will be surrounded - better get the Canadian Burka girls fighting for you. Every move you make is 10 moves behind - you are a country of our Draft Dodgers from the 60's and Islamic misfits - you are leaving a mess for your replacement.

He who speaks the loudest has the most to lose. Trump can give a shit less about your opinion. Canada will be under us control. Especially if your dumbass keeps acting tough. Lmfao

My husband and I were both immigrants to Canada, he from S. Africa, I from the UK. I never experienced any discrimination. My busband was diagnosed with late stage bone cancer at 31 years old. The medical care was so good that he lived another 6 mostly happy years. We were supported by the Ontario Health Care system with visiting nurses, even housekeepers and received every help we could possibly need, at no cost to us. I will always be grateful for the love and support we received from Canadian friends, employers and the medical professionals. What a country! I am in Europe now but feel strongly that Canada, the EU, Britain, the wonderful Ukrainians (I know quite a few refugees) and other countries of good will should work together for a better world. We are a family and families support each other in difficult times. Americans welcome when they are ready.

Trudeau is a clown. This is a guy who thwarts free speech and jailed his own people and took their money away during peaceful protests. Canada has enjoyed a a trade surplus against us forever. They also do not have to pay for military since they are right next to us. They should be doing whatever we want. Canada was sending recyclable trash to the Philippines. When the trash arrived it was not recyclable. Philippine president said stop sending but Canada continued to send it. So finally he said if you send one more ship, we will declare no war on you. And if that happened, without US help, even the Philippines would destroy Canada in a war. Way more fighting aged males and Canada has a worthless military. Canada has a GDP of 5-10% of US. So Trudeau acting tough is hilarious. Like a chihuahua barking at a grisly bear. If push came to shove, in the time of US war need, the US would simply take whatever it wanted from Canada. That's what happens when you don't develop your own substantial military-just like Europe now.

It should be noted, that it took Trump less than 40 days before 27% of Canadians now consider the US to be an enemy.\nObviously Dumpy is working to destroy western alliances.\nAsk yourself who will benefit.\nWho is happy with this?\nYou literally have a Russian asset BACK in the White House.\nWTF people.

This is not going to end well. \n\nThe former NATO Supreme Commander tells it like it will be.\n\nThe USA has already lost massively as Trump does not understand the sound and mostly reasonable US imperial Security Strategy, and i say this as a non US citizen.\n\nI still do not hate the American people, but Trump has given every anti America voice exactly what they needed, big incidents painting to paint them as most evil.\nTrump got played so hard by Putin it is not funny anymore, Putin is the bear and Trump the screaming goose, free meal for the bear.

I don’t agree with Trump but I’m trying to understand this….So he (Trudeau) punishes his own nation with carbon tariffs then tells his nation how tough it’s gonna be now that a foreign president applies tariffs…I’m sorry I just don’t get it…instead of starting a fight that will hurt us even more, why don’t he just let go of the carbon tax to help the suffering…\nIs he actually care or is it just politics ?

We europeans are threatened in the east by Russia and in the west, incredibly, by the USA (in addition to the trade war with the EU, Trump just a short while ago said he will take Greenland one way or another). And we are threatened commercially by China, which is expanding dangerously in Africa.\nNow, in the face of all this, either we admit our mistakes and look forward, all together we Europeans UNITED (politically, economically and also militarily), otherwise we will be just a side dish to world history for centuries to come.\nI would add, LET US SUPPORT THE ECONOMY AND EUROPEAN COMPANIES. LET'S BUY MADE IN EUROPE, INCLUDING DIGITAL SERVICES!

No one is buying the fentanil pretext. A great speech from Justin Trudeau. I sincerely hope the Americans will wake up and destitute this ''Wanna be Putin'' in Trump along with his mentally challenged vice president. Loved the intervention of former General Wesley Clark. I mean, when you served the US Army as a general, i'm pretty sure this man loves his country and hearing him saying he's totally with Canada in this issue. It's sums it all.

From the Midwest U.S, I support Canada and Mexico! We don’t want tariffs. We want ALL our economy to prosper! Not to crash them down! Otherwise, if we place tariffs, ALL OF US will be hurt. ALL COUNTRIES. ALL citizens regardless of income levels will feel it. \n\nRising egg prices? Just tonight (as of the evening of March 4) he blames it on Biden and the administration when he’s not even the president! I cannot believe we voted for a president who points fingers rather than taking accountability. \n\nAs an American, I only want to apologize to the world for voting for this bully (I never voted for him, but he won anyways.) I wish you all the best.

What Trump is doing is collecting money from these tariffs, while at the same time bringing certain industries back to the United States. These tariffs will not be permanent but will remain for a certain period to encourage companies to relocate. He runs his country like a business, he doesn’t care if there are job losses elsewhere.\n\nCanada and Mexico will have to adjust and start becoming less dependent on the United States. It will be difficult for Canada because we are a consumer country, we manufacture almost nothing. TSMC is moving to the U.S., his plan is working, and other companies will follow.\n\nHere in Canada, we import a huge amount of American products. We absolutely need to change our habits, we should not support a country that wants to see us fail.

attention, the dirty secrets of the dictator Donald Trump who supports Russian Terrorism?????????\nthe dirty secrets of the tyrant dictator Donald Trump who violates the US constitution to support the terrorism of the war criminal Vladimir Putin, the godless atheist tramples on the dead and the spilled blood of the Ukrainian people. the butcher Donald Trump supports terrorism and sells Ukraine to the terrorist Vladimir Putin,\n atheists and dictators, Donald Trump and Elon Musk, must be tried by the US military Court for violating the American constitution\nthese criminals who want to restore the dictatorship and the alliance with the terrorist Putin means isolating America and collapsing America how can these atheists do it to please the terrorist dictator Vladimir Putin.\n On Putin's orders, the Russian army raped women, children, and girls and then hanged them in the forests in Ukraine. How can the atheist Tramp, forgive the terrorist Putin when this criminal killed thousands of women and children raped by Putin's terrorist army? The dirty secret treaty returns again from 1944 of dictator Donald Trump who wants to sell Ukraine, to terrorist Russia./Trump wants all of Europe to become slaves to Russia, Godless dictator and atheist Donald Trump wants to restore communism in Europe and sell Ukraine to terrorist Vladimir Putin. President Donald Trump is a pro-Moscow dictator and wants to sell illegal portions of Ukraine to the terrorist dictator Vladimir Putin, the dirty business of the dictator Trump to restore communism and divide Europe, the dictator Trump will isolate America and in how many years will America be completely isolated, Russia must pay the Ukrainian people damages for the war and the reconstruction of Ukraine, Ukraine must not give up even a centimeter, of the territories. abusively occupied by terrorist Russia.'God Bless you Ukraine,God bless Israel.?????????????????? ❤❤❤✝ ❤??❤????❤❤❤❤??❤????❤❤❤❤??❤????❤❤❤❤Israel??❤❤❤

This precedented trade war will force other countries to look for another center force that binds the whole allies other than the US. The US is powerful and massive country so it would be difficult to fill the empty spot, but it will be done in the long time.

Except for Israel (thankfully), the current US administration is betraying, bullying and humiliating all its closest allies: Canada, the European Union, Mexico, the UK, Ukraine, etc. After the Oval Office ambush the world is realizing that the US can no longer be trusted as a friend or as a partner. This will have extremely damaging long lasting consequences…

And now because of trump the terrorists that will be launch for my allies back to us what cause Mass inflation our president is failing us and it's only been 6 weeks wouldn't be surprised if one of his acts magical supporters ends up knocking him off soon

Hello Canada from Denmark. I am sad to see the unfair way the US is treating your country, and I am sure it will soon come to Europe too. But it will also hurt the Americans, that is for sure. It is sad because many of us have always been pro-America. But it should not be like that anymore, and believe me it will get worse. The Americans have elected a mad man with no scruples to dictate their country and we must find others to do business with instead, because it is too dangerous that America has all that power

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

I, an American living abroad will not be traveling to the US for the next 4 years. Instead, I will take my all my trips to Canada and support their economy with my tourist dollars. I will buy Canadian made products as much as I can when I shop in my stores in Europe.

Many thanks to Trudeau. I just love it, World Democracy Leaders like Trudeau, Macron, Keir Starmer and many more EU leaders will come to the aid of Americans to show just how Corrupt and Deranged Trump is and, he can't threaten or fire them. Trump's actions WILL trigger a unification of EU Countries with Canada and any other country that Trump threatens. Tesla EVs won't be purchased, EU and Canadian Satellites won't be launched by US companies, and you'll see EU and Canadian Defense company R&D funding and sales take-off as new Trade agreements are made between these other countries that Severely hurt the US Economy in numerous ways which, just maybe, some since into the total Nut-Job, Scum-Bag, multi-Felon and Rapist named Donald.

I’ve seen Americans calling us siblings, people from Australia and New Zealand calling us cousins, and the rest of the world calling us friends. It’s very heartwarming, thank you all. \n\nMeanwhile, my prayers go out to everyone from Ukraine. We will not be distracted from our continued support for you throughout all of this.

Don’t worry about the US pecker head. Worry about how your country will survive. The US will be just fine while your country struggles on a whole new level. Pay up and give the US the money you’ve robbed year after year back you bum.

If it sounds good to your ears, Trump will spit out without worrying about consequences with Trump style, Russian sleeper cell agent NOW just wake up JUST LIKE Dracula and wracking has already started by wracking our federal government with all the lies and exaggerations making mountain out of molehills! As usual Trump's style to get your attention BY making mountains out of molehills all the small issues that can be resolved. I hereby declare ENTIRE Americans, except Russian Agent Trump's accomplice, young immature, arrogant, charlatan young JUST 40-year-old young pnk JD Vance and vast majority of Republican Party members. Henceforth, be aware that Russian agent Trump is about wracking the US and free world order, he should be removed when the Democrat Party wins both House and Senate! US

As a Frenchman, I can’t find the first bit of explanation, nor logic, in Trump’s strategy - if we can even call it strategy. The US will be the biggest loser in this situation, but Trump and his mini-Trump (Vance) will eventually find a way to explain that the US misery is the product of malign states. With Trump at the top, the US is going to lose its mind once and for all. I can’t believe that I once seriously thought about becoming an American citizen… the American dream is now COMPLETELY dead.

I think we need to give it time. In a year or two picture should be clear. I don't think tariffs are necessary a bad thing long term if they spike more production of everything or at list anything in US. Short term it would be painful for everybody tho. We become a country of no production. Only consumption is not healthy. It is how every empire behaves on a last breath. Look back in history. Rom, Spain etc.Sooner or later we wouldn't be able to exchange worthless green paper to goods anymore outside of the country unable to produce anything inside the country and we die. Personally I find it interesting and possibly well thought experiment.. Living the way we did last 50 years is not possible anymore. Something need to change and at list Donald is trying unlike those useless talking heads. How will it ends. Who knows. I can only hope for success. In worst case we'll have unending supply of discounted bourbon:).

Unfortunately, you’ve been leaching off the American Economy too long. The gig’s over guys. Lower your tariffs to us and just be fair. If not, we will create our own products and/or get our resources elsewhere.

No more buying US. No visits/ holiday's. No stocks. Cant help but feel this is what trump and musk want, i.e. to have stockmarket get weaker so they can buy more. \nLook over there...(aligning with Putin dictator, Bullying zelensky, illegal firing staff, tariffs, accusing zelensky of propaganda as US fox news is known for it) whilst they shake markets up, risking world war 3 for multiple reasons. With the Supreme court in his pocket, the US is following Putins lead and becoming a dictatorship. The law is far to pliable there at this point. \nAll those voted Trump in and think he is making America great, you are DILLUSIONAL!\nHe will take you and your families down.. the young get sent to war, the old asshole sociopathic men sit by the fire protected. It took a very long time for Germany to escape the reputation after Hitler. You want the rest of the world to disdain and never trust your country and people?! Germany recovered, but it was painful healing. \nHow bout Trump sleeps out on the streets, deals with fentanyl addicted unsupported US citizens and veterans or get sent to war? Or what about his children or grandchildren?! Would he care if they were called to stand for the country if WW3 broke out, because of him? Trump truly is making a statement... he gives 2Fs about the people, totally self serving. For the capitalist bullies who love money at any cost..even blood money... non of your investments will make a difference if you have no heating, water, food, jobs, lost family members through war and crap health system... not an ounce of love, respect, compassion, respect, leadership in the US government. The World can be better. Choose better... for all that is sacred... stop the madness!!\n\nWell done Canada & Trudeau... love and support you beautiful people. ❤\nLove and Strength to the people of Ukraine around the globe. I pray for this nightmare to end in your favour. For your loved ones to be safe and protected and that you can be reunited once more. Love and praise for Zelensky...you are a phenomenal leader. May you receive the support needed to end the war.❤\nHang tight US citizens who wish a very different US .❤

I’m going to be sick please don’t leave us here with this despicable excuse for a monster we have “running” our country and his whole cabinet full of unhinged, uneducated, bullies and bigots…. \n\nThis is the end of the USA… and what’s worse..? My our fellow Americans voted that criminal, narcissist, pig into office… and he will now eliminate everything we were and everything we once stood for…. No love. No diplomacy. No promise of a better life. No fighting Climate crisis. No belief in science. No allies standing hand in hand against evil. \n\nThis is it…that monster is the end of us by the time these 4 years are up…bravo American citizens… look at what you have done.

Canada as well as Mexico and China will and must fight back! I don't care so much about china, but Mexico and Canada have been our best trading partners and friends and now we have insulted them. We will deserve what we get because we have elected the most stupid president in the history of the United States. Be prepared to pay higher prices all of those of you who voted for this idiot president Trump. Unfortunately the rest of us who were smart and voted for someone else will have to be punished too!

You lost me as soon as you mentioned OUR Liberal narrative Putin, after that you just sound like a typical liberal crybaby. I feel for you all, i do, but we had tariffs before and its fine to have yhem again, the market will correct and we will manufacture our own goods and energy. You aren't flexing shit because we can tarrif you right into a 51st state, unfortunately you would be like California. Who is gonna protect your ass in a war? Whos tax dollars? You been dragging ass for a century and not paying your way, meanwhile the US pays more for military to cover your ass. Keep talking shit, join Ukraine and let me know how it works out.

If Canada is such a great friend of the US, then why have they not paid their NATO bill or manned their borders? Also, if Canada feels that the US is being unfair or not great friends and allies, then wy the public temper tantrum. Go find new friends build new alliances. Dear Canadians you are a sovereign nation. JT says you will fight? Why? The US is also a sovereign nation and has a right to be friends with any country. Yes, including Russia. Isnt that what you claimed when Russia invaded the Ukraine? Ukraine could be friends with anyone and did not give Russia the rigt to invade.

Im Canadian, true Blue conservative, and dot usually like what comes out to Trudeau's mouth, but was very happy to hear his words today...\nOver the past couple decades I have spent tens of thousands of my $$'s in the US.. Sadly not any more.. Sadly we will be staying home and will be standing firm....

Canada is smarter than the US, they will know how to survive while the red states in the US will be sucking in a babies bottle pretty soon.

I am a Canadian. We do not want conflict with USA. What we want is for our new leader to be voted in - and then work things out for trade. President Trump is aware of what we have suffered. Canada has stood firm.....the truckers in our capital....brought a siege all over the world for freedom. I do not want the tariffs.....that will hurt us both. But I did not like Trudeau's speech.....it was rude. It does not represent us as a country.

This man closed Canadas parliament and gave a Nazi war criminal a standing ovation. No one respects him, he is purposely destroying our country. The war is against Nazi liberals not America. Save us from this tyrant!!! Save Canada! Do not be fooled, he has erased Christianity and given corporations full control, he is EVERYTHING they accuse Donald Trump of being and WORSE! America is our last hope!!!!! I will die fighting to restore our democracy in Canada!

Shame they didn't care about fentanyl when it was killing people off in BC for years before spreading, thousands of people had died. Shame they didn't do anything about the corrupt government that enabled it and the money laundering. Hard to believe they care when so little effort or attention was shown to get the BC government at the time to be accountable. It doesn't help that with our current justice system it's practically a revolving door unless you're screwing over some established monopoly, people who cause real harm are out on the streets in no time. People who accept bribes and allowed the deterioration to occur will never be dealt with and I don't see steps going on to prevent it from happening again. People with the money run the govt and screw us over.

will the costs of the goods go down or will they go up?\n\nit seems to me that there will be a winner and that will be the person who is already winning, not the average person. the wealthy have picked a pretty face to whisper sweet nothings to the public while they do everything they can to gorge themselves on us; their cattle.\n\nwe live in little boxes with water treated with chlorine and ammonia and only a short amount of time in the sun. hardly enough sun to grow your own vegetables or enough room to graze your own cattle.\n\nchlorine and ammonia inhibit the growth of plants

As a Filipino, I will not be surprised if the US stops support for the Philippines fighting against China's aggressive actions on taking lands and seas in the west Philippine sea, Trump might even support China taking west Philippine sea or even let China take the Taiwan.

As a Canadian myself,,, I am more than desepointed about all of this… Because to me, The United States Of America,,, they were the perfect example of what it was to be a true hero! But now,,, because of one person,,, it has turned to a True Dictatorship… And,,, as Canadians,,, we must be hopeful that America will be once again this Really great Country of Brotherhood and also, it will become once again this Land Of Peace And Prosperity that we desperately need right now! Because I am positive,,, still positive that we will be together once again; just like we have been for a very long long time!!! I am Very Hopeful!!! Yes, it will be very hard for both of us and that includes for Mexico as well, but,,, we will win together and,,, just like we did with Hitler, we will stop this Dictatorship from conquering this world. So, Thanks so Much CNN,,, Love You All So Very Much Guys!!! Hope that everything will go well for all of you out there because I love you So Very Much Everyone! So, Let’s all hope for the best for all of us: Canadians, Mexicans and Americans and,,, Hope that we can stop this war between all of us… XOOXXO!!!! From: @Philippe Bouchard!!!! (From: Clair New-Brunswick Canada)!!!!!! ?????????????????????❤❤❤❤❤

Canada, I don't blame you if you want to flip the middle finger at us Americans. We are responsible for having a monster and lunatic in the White House. We deserve to not be liked by Canadians, period. If I was a Canadian, I would not welcome Americans into Canada. We Americans are losers and suckers everyday that we do not fight back against MAGA and all of its republicans including Congress and Donald Trump. We are weak and live in servitude to the MAGA tyranny that is slowing destroying the United State's standard of living and reputation. Canada, I personally stand with you, and hope that your country will assist the resistance movement in the next revolution to take out Donald Trump and MAGA. I am so fired up and pissed off at my government and Donald Trump.

The US will be the big loser. Countries that impose tariffs are shooting themselves in the foot. The only thing Trudeau got wrong was calling Donald a smart guy. Bully yes, smart, no.

I’ve never been to Canada I’ve always wanted to go visit. I’m from CT in the USA born and raised here. I’m ashamed of our government rn we must be the laughing stock of every other nation for all the INSANE EXECUTIVE ORDERS ONE AFTER ANOTHER WITH NO REAL INTENTIONS OR PLANS THAT WILL IMPROVE ANYTHING FOR THE USA! All while “Selecting” billionaire elites into prominent positions of power & these ppl have no background knowledge or experience whatsoever for the positions that they’re being selected for!! The whole world has gotta be laughing at us in the USA because this is insanity over here now!!!
