Just like liberals, Canadaian and mexican presidents know that it is not their own money, so they have absolutely no problems in wasting and burning it's citizen's money.

Trudeau and the NDP-Libs have left Canada a weakened, vulnerable and unproductive country, on the verge of economic disaster. This is all on Trudeau!\n\nWe have no leader, and the individual leading “Team Canada”, won’t be around to fulfil the commitments.\n\nThis is a group of leadership Premiers, trying but without any authority. \n\nWe have no working Parliament. \n\nAnd, they have completely ignored the issues laid before them, not just recently but for years. The border security issues (including the ports), the immigration issues, the fentanyl issues, the military issues…. overridden by woke waste.\n\nThey’ve destroyed our entire economy to reduce our supposed 2% responsibility for climate change. But we have done nothing to reduce or eliminate for our supposed 2% fentanyl responsibility. \n\nWe need Trudeau gone, Parliament restored, and an election called!

Way to waste 5 mins of my life to hear a transformer complain they are not recognized by the US government so I dont care how they feel or what they think should happen if you cant decide your bathroom you are not qualified to make decisions for anyone but yourself they should take your voting rights next

They do know the handouts are over. Trump is president the wasted the cartel 10000$ payoff.

No one cares just like all the anti Trump that resulted in nothing. This channel was a waste of time the last 4 years. Had zero impact on the election and the American public.

The majority are wasting their time, Trump says promises made promises kept and so far he has followed through.... everything

Collins is a total waste of oxygen

People keep thinking we are hand outs. We don’t help our own citizens but they will help these migrant criminals. Help our homeless, mentally ill, and our own criminals first before these people waste the money on us.

It is hard to even believe the world has come to such a ridiculous, immoral place... I do not understand how people on the news can even discuss these things with a straight face..... Our president is wealthy.He is powerful.He does not have to do anything for anyone .. He is putting his tom energy, an effort and to our country out of the love of God add all of those that are intimidated for no reason by him misunderstand that God illuminates helm and others do not even understand why they hate him.... God does shine through people add. I can promise I have the same hate and people try to destroy me.And I am just a simple person... God is good and I am so happy and evidently, I shine way too bright, also, because my joy in the lord illuminates from me... When I go into a store to use the restroom, and the people working in there has the ability by just looking at me to call 911 and tell them I stole... Which the surveillance never lies..\nYou know something about me was so bothersome to those ladies they couldn't help themselves... But I did.However, receive massive legal problems for making up lies and wasting all fifteen cop cars of cops, they wasted it.... So people need to understand those that shine with God's glory are hated by those that don't serve God... People hate me when I am and giving to them. So it makes all the scents in the world why Trump goes through what he does.. the ones that our most amazing to me are those of the view.... They are so in awe of him.They cannot stop talking about him every day... And I do not even understand how ignorant they or because they are truly in awe of him, they can't manage themselves.... If people would just choose love and support our own president in our country, it would be amazing..\n. I'll bet the united states is the only country that has so much hate for our own people and president... why not just choose to wait and see what happens?Hoping for the best... That man tells us, uh, every time he speaks the most wonderful news we have ever heard... It is obvious by all of the people unable to handle themselves because of his amazing everything... Whoopi Goldberg is the most evil bully that lies like a dog. They let on tv

You can’t deploy a trans person that relies on drugs and hormones just like you can’t deploy a person that has asthma and relies on an inhaler. Waste of money

We have been wasting too much time on this idiocy. We don't care about your sexuality, your a man and likely up to the physicality of service, you meet them in a more authentic way that is woke talk and we don't want woke in the military. We need tough people who are not bogged down by ideologies and are only ready to fight for their country. Your cause is not the cause the American people want in the military. Stop virtue signalling.

Trump not wasting opportunities ???

What a waste of a human being he's probably a sad ass hat who is always mad at the world

We went through this 8 years ago! These people save lives and defend our citizens.. The new administration's silly arguments are wasting time, money, and energy (AGAIN) and it's insulting to the people who serve this country... Just another tactic to distract us

We just don’t want to waste money on surgeries

Why are you wasting your time CNN with this kind of non sense? Transgender seriously??? In military seriously?? Other countries are watching and laughing at you. CNN you should have realized this won’t work for America and you are still on the same path. They are only two Genders, male and female ( we have figured this out many years ago and we are done here )\n\nLet’s put our energy and focus on things that need to be figured out. God bless America and Trump !

We are not tolerating this BS any more….time for some Trump hard ball….thats why the American voters hired him ………no more wasted money

Masks? It's not 2020. Why are we wasting money on these things again

Banning people that waste money is an issue? Y’all really trying to make that an issue? Y’all gotta get it together cnn there’s so many real logical problems going on and your reporting on this smh. If y’all keep this up, the Dems aren’t going to win America’s vote for a very long time even if trump ultimately fails.

The public is concerned about the price of groceries, finding a job, violence, crimes. Yet CNN leads the way, wasting time and money talking to a person who represents less than a third of 1% of our population. The emotional/gender issues and feelings - even of a commander - in the military are not our top priority. That man needs to be talking to a therapist about his gender dysphoria and emotional issues... because the top priority for persons serving in the military OUGHT TO BE NATIONAL DEFENSE - NOT GENDER ISSUES.

I guarantee most people have met a transgender and didn't even know it. I took a course at work and both instructors had transition from female to male. You would never know unless they told you. Im not sure why people want to fight people being who they want to be. They don't impact anyone eles and just want to live their lives. Stupid how Republicans have made this an issue. What about guns that are killing people every day?? What a waste of time going after trans people like they are killing people or something.

The younger generations see war as a wasteful destructive endeavour. There really is NO reason in this day and age for wars to even exist. It comes down to crappy men, deluded by power, who are desperate to leave some mark on the world. It’s stupid, it’s wasteful, and against everything a Christian is supposed to stand against according to their faith. THOU SHALL NOT KILL. The second you break that one, you don’t get to go to heaven, ever.

President Trump is correct 100% and all CNN has is its own predictable opinions. The dems favorite rush to lib courts will not work either. The dems should have never pushed this onto our military. Biden wasted millions on this so called medically necessary surgery. What gets me though is some church people and catholics and muslims still vote dem.

The Social experiment can be done in the private sector & the market can decide whether it works or not!\nWe need to return our military to a lethal force. \nThat no nation wants to challenge. \nThe military needs to get out of nation building. That could be left to the Peace Corps or other departments after the military has laid waste to the it’s targeted area!

I don't want my medical wasted on people that aren't actually mine.

TRUMP NEVER MENTION THE RAIL SYSTEM FROM BROWNSVILLE TX INTO MEXICO ? WHY ? WALLS ARE A WASTE OF MONEY

My quandary is before Trump initiated this action for Ice, to start cracking down on immigration, why in the hell did we keep all these agents on the payroll. prior to this recent enacted legislation, all presidents to include Trump before and since Biden’s? administration never were tough on immigration, so what was this wasteful government organization doing all these years, while immigrants were having free reign? This is only one of many government agencies formed, that do nothing but cost taxpayers money from their paychecks?

Trump voters are to ignorant to understand that the billionaire class and their control over our politicians including Trump is why everything is expensive now. They would rather blame immigrants and that’s never going to solve the problems that we face as a country. We will just waste more money and 4 years from now everything will be even more expensive, the gap between the rich and the poor will have grown and Trump will be laughing all the way to the bank.

Makes me feel sorry for the families who were lied to and led to our doorstep. All that wasted time and energy to get to a shut door. Shame on whomever lied and led them here.

DEPORT. U MAKING US WASTE MONEY.

CNN, this is a dead new. \nPlease don’t waste your time with CNN. This Columbia president had caved in to Trump demands since yesterday. \nCNN should update their new segment immediately.

You can gather tens of thousands of people to illegally invade a country but you’re telling me these same folks can’t put their heads together to build themselves a town. Or to gather in front of their politicians house and clean out their corruption in their country. Or to formulate a deal with some other country’s so they can get some funding to startup opportunities in their own communities. There’s enormous value in the fact that you can have this many people gather in person the problem is nobody has the brains or intelligence to be a good leader so that the human effort isn’t wasted. Even if they were to get in the problems their facing will not be solved. The problem is that that many people are putting their heads together and the best idea they all can come up with is to invade a country risking life and limb, abduction, and SA at the hands of smugglers and cartels is crazy.

I love it when CNN *pretends* to be a news network. They waste time reporting on fantasy scenarios that *never* happen. There is not a tariff war with Colombia. Trump was merely negotiating with the Colombian president using hardball tactics. Why is that so difficult to understand? These talking heads aren't real journalists.

Ok. So we waste taxpayers' money on fraudsters again!? What happened after they found them? Deported or Allowed to file false asylum claims?!

Hi ! What a waste of time and money ? !!

The only president that actually gets things done ?? not wasting time ✅

Isn't it great how the taxpayer's money is being wasted by the orange waste of flesh?

President Trump is not wasting anytime, and that is just a beginning ❤

Bro don’t waste time, got to give him that

Just remember folks, President Trump does not care about the American people. President Trump is more focused on Greenland and Canada instead of fixing the high cost of inflation. Shame on you President Trump. You ran on fixing the economy. Not trying to acquire Greenland and Canada. Shame on you, President Trump what a waste of a vote.

The cost to use our military, quarter million, wasted, embarrassed Trump. How come no contact was made previously shows Trump had assumed he could force it. Sad. Presidents should be diplomatic, and talk to the other countries before sending them people. People, living people...

Don’t come to this country thinking the grass will be greener. You all will suffer here and treated like crap. The American dream has become the worse nightmare even for citizens of the country. Many homeless and mentally ill people that get no assistance plus crime everywhere. Don’t waste your lives here.

lining his pockets wasting no time.

US doesn’t have to deport these illegals to different countries. Just send them thru southern border to Mexico, where they came thru. Very less money wasted n in deportation

We told you. You didn’t listen. They’re wasting our military’s time and driving up OUR COST.

I can’t wait til the world opens a can of whoop ass on trump. He’s a total waste of air.

That's what you would consider government waste. Hopefully we can pipe down on the impulsive decision making.

Rolmfao Columbia said nice wasting your tax payer money. ??
