I knew this thread would be FILLED with Trump apologist. He literally said “was there any love?.. Like there was in Germany”
It’s not taking it too far. It’s what he said. We don’t need to figure out if he meant a prison guard or Germans in general. We don’t need to excuse what he meant by adding precision he didn’t add. According to Trump there was love for Jews in Nazi Germany.
I’m so glad to see at least a few people resisting the sanewashing.
That’s a problem we have globally. Although it might seem like Trump style populism vs Canadian neo-liberalism(with all it’s pros and cons), we’re both purple. You guys just have a bit more right wing red in the dye mix. It’s plausible that Canada elects our own Trump then we can both be stupid.
The only ideology that has a chance at stopping the populist wave is Sanders style social democracy because it addresses the same core issue of wealth disparity. But it doesn’t look like anyone is electing that anytime soon.
Russia is trying Israel’s moves. Hospitals and journalist families next!
Trump’s tariffs are universal. Meaning that even in cases where the only practical option is Canada, for example potash, they have to suffer a direct 25% price increase.
The Canadian tariffs are highly selective, we only tariff goods that have alternate non US suppliers at similar prices. In this case the tariffs would mostly reduce market competition without directly affecting price.
I think the better approach is to not enforced the digital lock aspects of the free trade agreement and have Canada be a leading repairer of farm and industrial equipment.
I read the article, I saw the interview. He literally said “was there any love?.. Like there was in Germany”
What I skipped is only a description of what Trump thinks love is (extra piece of bread and a wink) and that hamas didn’t do it. The two clauses are literally directly connected.
I know it’s hard to believe that’s what he said. Unfortunately you’ll have to accept it to deal with the modern reality.
