Trump is constantly criticizing other countries and their leaders, especially our allies, and telling them what to do. What's good for the goose, right?

It is not "meddling" any more than is US states sending trade missions abroad and offering state incentives to get foreign investment.
IF Op's belief system is to be assigned to a Leader of one's Country who is so antithetical to Democracies .. THEN is should by their PARAMETER mean Trump should be BANNED from ALLy's and Mexico and CANADA!! I'd vote for that myself!!

Ignorance is NO excuse when being POTUS.. Yet his blinded Kool-Aid drinkers LOVE to HATE on anyone who doesn't sign on to their HATE mongering bullying!! Let's put the SHOE on Trump's creation of such divisive rhetoric!! He won't win.. and Actual Democratic Countries will Call it out!! This is not a marginal call either.. Trump has been AHT since he rode down that escalator!!

BTW~~ My Ignore list has exploded.. gone from 25 to over 200+ in the past few months!! I chose not to read Conspiracy theories + BS/Propaganda/Bot posts!! What a difference scrolling thu threads has been!!

This is inappropriate because Trump is currently representing the Americans
If you disagree with Trump, you have to respect his country
And his position
If you hate Trump, you have to give reasons for your hatred of him
Are you a Canadian Muslim?
The difference between the two countries in some policies between the two countries is very natural
But the bad thing about Mr. Trudeau is opening the door to Islamic immigration to Canada
His domestic policies have the right to protect Canada if necessary
The two countries can reach understanding in all aspects of life because they are countries that believe in democracy
That is why I urge you not to fuel the flames of hatred and hatred between the two countries, America and Canada
Indecent words are sent to the character of President Trump

"It's a good strategy." Not really. It essentially now forces Trump to send surrogates to Canada to undermine Trudeau, campaign for the opposition party, punish Trudeau's business allies.


And anyway, isn't this what the accusations against Russia are about: meddling in U.S. domestic policy. It's ok for Canada, but not Russia. Really?

What I hear is Trump saying is the trade deals that have been made are unfair to Americans, that financial commitments made by NATO members are not being honored to the detriment of American taxpayers, that their handling of the migrant and refugee crises is contributing to a general lack of security in the Western World.

Despite the dramatic title of the article, Trudeau never said "ditch America First". What he did say:

Quote:
But Mr Trudeau, who is a fierce advocate of free trade, told the governors protectionist policies "kill growth".

"And that hurts the very workers these measures are nominally intended to protect. Once we travel down that road, it can quickly become a cycle of tit-for-tat, a race to the bottom, where all sides lose," Mr Trudeau said.

"If anything, we would like a thinner border, not a thicker one."

Trudeau acts in the best interest of America.
Thats how globalism works. Leaders of foreign nations get to decide what is best for us. Soon these same leaders will get to decide when they can kill our children like they do in the UK. Local decisions and leadership is so yesterday. With the advancement of bio-engineering I can't wait until they produce a more compliant population to serve the needs of elites and promote harmony.

Who is the 'we' of which you speak?


Obviously trudeau is unable to comprehend the englsih language as his interpretation of America first, is grossly distorted but aligned with America's first propaganda machine trumpeting the thoughts handed to it by its bosses, the anti trump election losers of the hijacked democrat party.


the united states, sans militant dems and lap dog media, views Trudeau as an embarassment to Canada for his words that reflect the hysterical rant of the socialist election losers who ran a criminal for prez, compliments of a corrupt obama administration.


Someone, please send Trudeau a gross of red MAGA hats.

Imagine the outrage if an American President had suggested Quebec ditching Anglophone Canada.

Oh, we know what happened when DeGaulle repeated "Vive Le Quebec Libre" - major diplomatic incident.
De Gaulle and "Vive le Québec libre" - The Canadian Encyclopedia

Trudeau should be banned from the U.S. for meddling in domestic politics!
America first is a joke for trumptards to parrot from the tree tops. If you hate foreigners intervening in American politics then Trump sure as hell ain't your man.
