I will not listen to MSNBC or CNN or any stations tonight. I will be watching all of my James Bond movies and other movies. I would not waste my time listening to insults from this person. With a so-called friend like Vladimir Putin and Elon Musk does not make you smart. ?

Justin, you are wasting your valuable breath.Trumpovitch won't understand a single word until Russia tells him what you mean - and how he is expected to respond. Make Russia Great Again !!

ISOLATED POLITICALLY, ECONOMICALLY AND MILITARILY, JUST A BIG BULLY IN THE PLAYGROUD WITH NO FRIENDS. EUROPE CAN MANAGE WE HAVE NUKES AND THE BALLS TO STAND UP TO DICTATORS. CONSIDERING THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS THE US HAS WASTED PROPPING UP DICTATORSHIPS ACROSS THE WORLD IN SELF INTEREST IT IS DISGRACEFUL TO TREAT UKRAINE LIKE THIS.

Yall some sad Americans fr yall just good with the U.S funding an being taken advantage of yall weird. Oh an don’t waste ya time replying cuz if you do you a dick eater.It’s America first

Canada instead of retaliating should focus on its own economy, reduce taxes and reduce bureaucracy. Retaliation will only make life for Canadians harder and only benefit the government (more tax) which they will waste like always.

Well if you hadn't spent MILLIONS on LGBTQ related crap and painting our roads rainbow colored. Maybe you could actually have helped the economy with those MILLIONS you wasted on parades and BS

In a sense, this tariff war is a sign of humility. We as society consume too much, with things we don't need, but waste. Feed the hungry and house the homeless

a 1.3 billion dollar waste of money for extra border security. We did this to appease the unappeasable. He never intended to stop the tariffs, he just wanted us to spend out money. He's trying to bankrupt Canada. STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY ON TRUMPS DESIGNS. Remember WE the public are paying for this, THEY (our governments/the Upper Class) are benefiting. As Trump crashes the markets, who do you think is buying it up, think about it.

I had to stop listening to this panty waste! We have been trying to understand for TEN YEARS, what the Liberal/NDP Coalition has been doing/saying. Why did it take a President from another country, to threaten tariffs for them to do their jobs? Sell Out Singh, is just as much to blame, as is Croatia Freeland, Mark “Carnage” Carney! Carney probably made a deal with DT for all of this!! I am not a fan of DT, not even close, and it pains me to agree with some of the things he’s saying. JT, says 1% of drugs come from here. That’s 1000% ? ?!! They don’t even check the ports. This dude at the border is a friend of JT’s, just like everyone in his cabinet! His old babysitter, his best man, at his wedding… IRS an absolute disgrace what’s happening here! I/we just want our country back, that’s it! We NEED an election and complete change of government! JT, the failed drama teacher, had zero business being a politician, let alone a PM!! He is the absolute disgrace of Canada! His legacy, is FAILURE. Hopefully these tariffs leave when Trudope/Carnage and Sell Out are gone from office! ??????????

To the world. - I am an American citizen and I am ashamed to be one. I do not support trump. I did not vote for him. I hate him. He is a waste of breath. I am sorry about everything our government is doing. I don’t want this and I don’t want him in charge. I stand with Canada.

Two things come to mind after hearing about all this stuff. Why you go on live TV and waste your time when you could attempt to talk it out with the American government? Also, if the United States is posing a 25% tariff in Canada is doing the exact same thing isn't it more or less a wash?

Trump is the waste (of time, space, and humanity), the fraud (on MAGA, and voters), and the abuse (of women, patience, tolerance, kindness, and the Constitution.)

Trump is far from a genius. Ukraine president doesn’t want to see his people suffer anymore from a ruthless piece of garbage that invaded his country. Trump and Vance were an embarrassment to our country, low life’s . Then afterwards one goes and plays golf and the other one goes skiing talk about wasteful gov spending and you people are worried about the money we give to our allies just think about how much we spend on security for Trump and his family and his cabinet at the end of the year it will astonishing. It’s not like we will see any of this money he supposedly is making from these deals only he will see it and his rich friends !!

From Australia. Wasting your time Canada. The US don't care anymore. Their boy Trump is what they want. Got him in twice. Have to go with the will of the people.

They use Fentanyl, DEI, Woke, immigrants, Gov't waste, as a key word to justify the tearing down. Trump can lie to the uneducated that he loves, the racist and the greedy, but other Countries will check him. The Skipper and Gilligan is on this super hero movie villain tip.

Those border improvements won't be wasted - soon, Canada will have to protect it's border from US refugees.

Don't waste your precious breath! The orange clown is brainless.

Trudeau has not been a good Prime Minister. He took the Liberal Party (historically a centrist party) further left, wasted billions of dollars during Covid and put punishing carbon taxes on Canadian citizens. Having said that, this IS his finest hour and he and most of the provincial Premiers have shown a solidarity and strength that will prove to the US that their northern neighbour is not the pushover they thought they were. It's up to the American people to rectify this situation.

Nice job voting for the orange arangatang. Plays golf all the time and waste tax payers money going to the super bowl and Daytona, and causes tariff wars for no reason. Nice job maga morons, waste your money

Bunch of commie leftards hating on American wanting our tax dollars to go to fraud waste and abuse. But hey the majority of them could think their way out of a soaking wet paper grocery bag.

Can someone in the US at least teach that idiot Trump this VERY SIMPLE lesson?\n\n\nIf you want to improve linearly, compete!\nIf you want to improve exponentially, collaborate!\n\nBut it's hard to say whether an idiot who has only managed to do one thing in his entire life: waste his father's money, will understand this.

The liberal brainwashing and wasting of our children's future is strong on here?????

I think your wasting your time Trudeau , Americans are thick as bricks, after all the majority voted for trump, says alot

Ukraine 3 years of USA money and artillery to fight a war that impossible to win with his country flattened his people killed soldiers women and children that European country's have sat back an watched waffing what the USA should do \nIreland own people living on the streets with 100.000 Ukraines taking up housing with able body men here that's suppose to to be soldiers living it up here \nEurope are sitting back prompting him what he needs in guarantees from the USA \nHow many more must die for him , Crazy while he spoofs from country to country for arms and money with billions already wasted \nTrump is correct, to stop funding a war , its peace he wants people need cop on \nFunding more money to maim and kill will not make peace

I thought this irrelevant waste of flesh resigned, when is Canada finally able to rid itself of him?

He can huff and puff all he wants. But, he's leaving soon. Nothing he says matters. Things will change soon for the Canadian people. Why you're even giving this waste of space airtime is beyond me.

Speaking into the cameras direct to trump is a waste of time I’m afraid , trump is sitting in front of his burner phone waiting for the love of his life to call and tell him he did good and receive his next instructions .

Trudeau sounds like a child that just got kicked out of his mom’s basement and told to go start making a living himself instead of getting the free ride he has been accustom to. Time to pay your bill Canada. We just can’t afford propping ya up anymore. Don’t worry it’s not just you,it’s the end of all the reckless spending that our bloated government had been doing for years. I’m sure you will be fine, but you’re going to have to get rid of all the waste in your government too.

We Canadian stand with the American people, and President Trump CARES AND PUT AMERICA INTEREST FIRST UNLIKE OUR DUMB PM TRUDEAU WHO IS STEPPED DOWN BECAUSE WE CANADIAN ARE TIRED OF HIS WOKE AGENDA AND WHOREMONGER SUPPORTING THE ONGOING WAR IN UKRAINE WASTING OUR TAX PAYRES MONEY AND THERE ARE LOT OF HOMELESS CANADIANS, FAMILIES WHO BARELY GET BY. TRUDEAU DOES NOT CARE ABOUT CANADIAN WE KNOWS THIS TO BE FACT BY HIS ACTION AND HOW HE RUN OUR PROSPEROUS COUNTRY INTO DEBT.

Drama teacher is always drama teacher. Trump can place tariffs at any time. Canada must stop rely on USA for everything. Grow up! Yes, we need to reply with the tariffs as well, but stop making your drama as usual. Trudeau, go away and let Poilievre negotiate a deal with Trump. Stop wasting the Canadian taxpayers money and pretend you care. Trump is not a Russian friend. He is keeping us away from the 3rd world war. The war in Ukraine must to stop.

Trudeau is wasting his time. There are millions of Americans who support Canada and Trudeau does not need to explain anything to them. The rest of the Americans are the idiots who support Trump and they will never change their minds no matter how much they get hurt by tariffs.

A Canadian business associate of mine refers to Justin Trudeau as a 'Useless waste of skin'. As an American, the idiom was new to me. I'd just call him a bag of crap. Canadians give him a 'flush' at your earliest opportunity, please!

The convicted felon dicktator-in-the-making said he wanted Canada's economy 2 b destroyed so he can bankrupt my country. He said it out loud. Yet, everybody was/is distracted with his talk about drugs/people smuggling from here 2 the U.S. \nWe need 2 turn the lights out NOW in the U.S. waste no more time, as the c.f. dick. has four more years.

He is a lying piece of waste,ten years of of destroying Canada.\nA chess pawn of the elite, don’t believe a word he says.

Guess I should have waited about four more years to take that first time home buyers class. What a waste! ?

Ok that's good to fight back...but help Canadians...remove the dam carbon tax..stop wasting our tax money

Mr. Trudeau, don't waste your time to talk to Trump. Trump is that stupid thug who never makes sophisticated thoughts. Trump is playing some PC game, and people are of no worth for him. Neither american, nor any others. Trump is pathetic liar, who will keep doing stupid things. Presedency is just a game for that thug to have some fun in his otherwise senseless life.

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

Why is it that everyone outside of America has an expectation on how we should be that benefits them. This can has been kicked down the road for multiple decades. The waste, fraud, and abuse we are uncovering in the government. The situation with NATO and Ukraine and no one can fix their problems or issues without the US. We have aggressive homelessness, poverty, poor education system, high taxes, and a government that in the past has done nothing but pimp our tax dollars out just for kickbacks. Everyone is pissing and moaning about our domestic problems while also having an extremely high bar on the international stage. I have never received aid from the UN, never receive money from other countries, nor assistance. Is no one in America tired of this? Here we are talking about Bourbon tax….lol. A great reset needs to happen and though I do not like it, it is happening and I am here for it. BTW I love Canada and Mexico and believe at best that if we pull out of NATO I would still hope we can have an Americas/Mexico treaty.

It’s about to get a whole lot worse. Another western country living beyond their means interfering in the affairs of others countries and wasting tax payer money on such nonsense.

Canada needs to stop living beyond its means. Get rid of un-necessary ministries, involvements in private sector that isn't mandated. A Canadian DOGE would be good too, to look line by line to get rid of waste, abuse, corruption. Stop electing the Liberals which like the US Democrats just spend the public money to buy votes like a drunken sailor.

Who wants to live and have children in a country that costs more than New York and will look like Mumbai in 40 years. Waste of a once beautiful country with nothing but opportunity in the resources sector.

DON'T give canada any money. Let them survive on their own. We the tax payers are tired working for wasteful spending.

Thank you Homan and Trump along with ICE and the Border Patrol. The Democrats are aiding and abetting the criminal element. They also don't want the population from finding out all those billions of waste money and complain because they have been using agencies like USAID to enrich themselves.

This is an invasion/threat to our country keep America safe 1st!! Smh y are we wasting time protect the damn borders!

Canada is a waste friends help

Taxpayers money is wasted by Biden and Hochul and Adam. They must be made accountable !

Stop wasting money on military bases outside USA. Need more military bases along borders. ?

Too bad the voters have no say about the money wasted on these criminals.
