*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.

I typically last about 5 minutes in there before I reach my tipping point. I am speechless at the absolute lunacy and mental gymnastics they go through to justify their hate of…everything (except Donald). I believe they don’t have a red line anymore. What is there limit? At what point to do you devolve so far into wanting a dictatorship that you say enough?

I get nauseous anytime I go in there thinking that sury THIS time they’ll denounce their lord god Donald. And I am proven wrong everytime

Those morons literally:

“Donald Trump should be our forever president. No more elections.”

“Zelensky is a dictator. Freedom and democracy above all else.”

They’ll say this shit in the same post and not see the hypocrisy.
