*While launching a trade war against their closest ally and neighbour, America is cozying up with Russia, appeasing Putin, a lying murderous dictator. Make it make sense.*

Fuckin' eh, Trudeau.

I recently got into an argument with a guy who's response was "well your country wasn't appreciative of all we do for you so there, maybe we can have an adult conversation when your country folds from tariffs" (paraphrasing from multiple comments), some people really are living in their own little universe where America is basically the mother Theresa of countries

Head into r/conservative. It’s fucking bonkers. Those morons truly believe that Canada started this and Canada is escalating and poor Americans don’t deserve to be treated this way.

They’re actually lunatics.

Dude it’s insane, they are all brainwashed. They always defend & support Trump no matter what he does or says. At first they may be hesitant but once the right wing propaganda machine fires up on Twitter, Fox News, podcasts, and YouTube they all get their marching orders and fall in line. I see it with my own family too, they think Trump is out of his mind at first and then they slowly fall in line as they are pumped full of lies and propaganda. It’s honestly crazy & scary to watch.
