    Trudeau travels to Florida to meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lago after speaking against tariffs

    Interesting that this occurred so quickly after Trump's comment on tariffs on Canadian goods. As Canada is also having some immigration issues there may be a lot of common ground between the two.

    Reportedly Trudeau opted to fly because he couldn’t travel that far on his knees.

    Or more accurately he knows that the best way to manipulate Trump is to feign fealty.

    Just a guess in the end Trump will hold press conferences (possibly a single joint press conference) with Sheinbaum and Trudeau withdrawing the tariffs before they are even implemented while announcing agreements implying that he forced them to capitulate when in fact very little has changed substantively, kind of like his USMCA which was simply NAFTA with minor modifications. Even Trump probably realizes that 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada will not just be disastrous to the those countries but to the US as well.

    If your "plan" is to suck up to dictators and piss off our traditional allies, sure.

    Exactly how its going down. Huff and puff and announce loudly that this thing that was never going to happen will now not happen because of yours truly. I’m the greatest, most magnificent- you should praise me. Please. I’m so lonely.

    Yesterday, CNN had the picture below on their front page. I can’t help but wonder if it was a subtle troll, juxtaposing a younger Trudeau with an unflattering photo of Trump. We all know how much appearance matters for trump.

    If Trump can get the Mexican government to announce a return to having their military close down their southern boarder, similar to 2019, then I believe something came of it. Until then, I would agree that this is flattering Trump ego.

    Sorry. We already tried customs and border patrol your way. It's time now to let the adults and patriots handle the situation. Run along now...

    It's like you all think Trump hasn't had someone attempt to flatter his ego before. He didn't get to where he did by being gullible. Considering he came up in NYC, I'm certain he's seen every form of flattery there is a million times before. And as you noted, the track record is on his side. The track record doesn't favor his doubters on this subject.

    Trudeau had to travel to MAL as Canada will not allow felons into Canada without applying for an exemption.


    Can Felons Go to Canada? (How to Visit with Felony)

    Canada has one of the toughest borders in the entire world. Unfortunately, this means that an American with a felony record will typically have difficulty traveling there. Even a single conviction from a long time ago can result in a felon being denied entry by Canada.

    Trump said he would sign an assault weapons ban in a televised meeting with Democrats. It took Republicans to convince him to backtrack on it.

    All Trump wants is for the people who have talked bad about him over the years to have to flatter him now. It comes from his years of being considered a joke by high Manhattan society, who look down on him as a real estate guy from Queens.

    Trudeau is in deep crap in his own country and he needs a win. His popularity is in the dumps. I hope Trump does NOT save this communist from getting voted out of office.

    It's literally the reason Trump gave for picking JD Vance as VP.

    Thank you for posting this. I was going to post the over one-hour CDC video of the Canadian News people talking about this the other day, but decided to wait... Glad you posted this important event.

    I love how these people rationalize the amounts of drugs and illegal invaders that cross their side of the border into the U.S. because they think they are unfairly being lumped in with Mexico.

    One thing that makes both Mexico and Canada EQUALLY guilty of a mass trafficking crime is that both of those two countries are letting people from all over the world come into their country because both countries know that those said people will simply be using their respective countries as a way to get into the U.S.A.

    They are BOTH aiding and abetting these criminal invaders to get into the U.S.A... They are both equally complicit in that crime against the USA.

    The Canadians can't wait to vote that scrum out of office, and Trump should do him NO favors. I almost posted the same network (CDC) interview the Premier of Alberta, Canada and her view of Trudeau, videoed about 3 or 4 days ago. She sounds more American than he ever did. Mrs, Smith, forgot her first name, is what I would call a true ally to the U.S.A., unlike that communist, Trudeau.
