"I deal with every country, indirectly or directly. One of the nastiest countries to deal with is Canada," Trump said.

Ladies and gentlemen, the dumbest person on the planet, Donald Trump.

    I have never known a man who needed to get punched in the face worse than Donald Trump. I am not a violent man. I detest “online tough guys” who treat every situation as an excuse to advocate for violence. And I’m not saying I endorse a bullet or a guillotine or something like that. I’m not even saying I’d punch him.

    But this man has clearly never been punched in his shit-talking mouth, and if someone had done it 40 or 50 years ago, we wouldn’t be here now.

      Honestly, my greatest wish for Trump and Musk? That they have all their wealth and contacts stripped from them, and they either spend the rest of their lives in a blue collar prison, or homeless on the street without a single soul willing to help them… I’ll settle for the guillotine though.

      Hitler died from a bullet, fired from his own gun. His advisors were tried for war crimes, convicted, sentenced to death, and hanged. I think we can all agree that these were reasonable conclusions.

    Good.

    Let him stick to that line, keeping Canadians angry and trade negotiations stalled. He’s helping us maintain the momentum needed to build a stronger Canada and end reliance on U.S. trade for good. When he and his ilk are all eventually deposed, the U.S. will have to make many concessions to get (partially) back into our good graces. If that doesn’t happen, our need for political separation will only increase.

    No deal is the best deal.

    Tell your representatives/Carney to stop cowering, and spending on military vs Russia, and to be more aggressive on winning trade war. Cancel F35s today. Can renegotiate much better later if trade war resolved.

    “Nasssty Canada, with its healthcare and reciprocal tariffs!” Krasnov hissed. “It burns us, precious!”

    He hunched over in the dim glow of the Oval Office, stroking a golden golf ball in his palms, his eyes darting between it and the maps spread across his desk. “They take advantage of us, yes they do. Always winning, always smug with their free doctor visits and politeness. Weak! But strong! It’s tricksy, so tricksy!”

    A cough echoed from the corner. His chief of staff, a weary-looking man with thinning hair, cleared his throat. “Sir, this—uh—this meeting with Prime Minister Trudeau is important. We need to discuss trade.”

    Krasnov recoiled, clutching the ball tighter. “Trade?! TRADE?! Filthy free-traders! They cheat us! Steal from us! But we—” He paused, his voice dropping into a desperate whisper. “We could… could take their milk, yes, yes! Their delicious dairy! Make America milky again!”

    His chief of staff pinched the bridge of his nose. “Sir, we already produce a lot of milk.”

    Krasnov’s face twisted, his fingers tightening around the golf ball like a strangling grip. “No! Canadian milk is special! It’s… socialist milk! It must be destroyed! We put tariffs on it, we crush them, and then we take it for ourselves, yessss!”

    A flicker of doubt passed across his face. He shook his head violently, as though fighting himself. “But what if… what if Canada is right?” His voice softened, a pained expression twisting his features. “What if… universal healthcare isn’t nasssty? What if… it’s… good?”

    He gasped, stumbling backward, horror-stricken. “No! No, no, no, never! That’s socialism! That’s evil! We hates it!” He flung the golf ball across the room, where it clattered against a bust of Lincoln and rolled onto the carpet.

    His chief of staff stared, unsure of what to say.

    Krasnov froze, then slowly crawled toward the ball, cradling it again in his hands. “We must punish Canada. Yes, precious. We must make them pay. Or else… or else we lose.”

    A long silence followed.

    Finally, the chief of staff sighed. “I’ll call the trade representative.”

    I’m convinced the guy is literally doing this because of how it would look on a map. He took a look at how big Canada looks (partially due to Mercator) and thought “Wouldn’t it be great if the my country was that big?”

    You’ve managed to piss off the country whose reputation is that they apologize for everything. Stupid idiot.

    Nasty is a compliment. It’s what he called Freeland after she stood up to him in the last trade negotiations.

    It’s also pretty funny from a guy who jails children, threatens others constantly, abuses power, and makes enemies just by breathing. I actually think in his head “nasty” really just means “won’t simply bend over for me”.

          In hockey “elbows up” is a sign a player would like to fight. In this context Canadians are telling America if you want to start a trade war and question our sovereignty, we are gonna put up a fight instead of just bending over.

            Gotcha! Best of luck to Canada if push comes to shove. As a 'murican I’d like to think my countrymen and especially our military whose loyalty is sworn to the constitution, not to the president, would resist the fuck out of an order to invade Canada, but so far we don’t seem to have much of a spine.

            Idk what all I can do to help from inside the dumpster fire, but I’ll throw a wrench in the gears on this side whenever the opportunity presents.

            …this is all just so fucking stupid >_<

    I know I’m asking a lot, but can anyone compile the list of everyone that Trump has called “nasty”? Because I feel like we’re in really good company.
