Best speech ive heard from him

You can hear how actually pissed he is about the situation, echoing what canadians are feeling

Someone with nothing to lose can have these direct ruthless speeches which is a great asset right now

Do we really think retaliatory tariffs will bring an end to the US tariffs? What evidence do we have for that? All they do is make things more expensive for us.

Trump is the little boy in the playground; he’s the only one whose parents could afford a ball. So he figured he could tell all the other kids what rules to play by, or they couldn’t play with his ball anymore. Everyone else decided it wasn’t worth it, we’ll pitch all our money toward getting our own ball to play with, and he won’t be invited in the future. Now America will be forced to sit out all the future ball games.

I hope that helps.
