Journalistic responsibility would be to NOT call him the president. Use his name if you must. But that's not the P wordhe ever deserves.

He really did this because of the Stock Exchange in order to avoid a big financial loss for his billionaire backers.

1)Please tell me Trudeau recorded the call and somebody will leak it.

2)This was mostly a smokescreen to distract us while Musk and his #GeekSquadGoons ransacked the Treasury.

3)Putin is so pleased with his puppet!

4)maga won’t know the difference - but Wall Street does!

The Treasury hasn't been ransacked. Musk only has access in read only mode. Let's try to stick to facts as we know them, please. ---Jason

I hope you are right, but I wouldn't put anything past Musk. He isn't noted for staying inside the box. I don't trust him or anyone else in this administration. They are a ship of fools, thieves and liars!!

That's the first time any place has mentioned the "read only" status. Thank you. Let's hope the status doesn't change.

Read only for now maybe but I am not taking any chances. I am moving money out of the bank account I have on file with the IRS and SSA. There is a felon and a druggy in charge.

Please cite your source. Also, just because electronic access may be read only, it can be (a) downloaded, or (b) printed out, or (c photographed, or even (d) hand transcribed.

First off, he doesn’t have the authority to have “read only”. He strong armed the actual civil servants and downloaded the information on his own servers- so no friend that’s not “read only” that’s propaganda. So you stick to the FACTS!

The Best way to negotiate with Trump. Is to show a strong sense of Canadian solidarity. America needs your goods just as much as Canada needs American goods! Stay strong! Remember how Germany stood against Russian pressure regarding natural gas

In 2023.

They simply had to pretend Trump won. That was easy. Flatter him with nothing in particular. Trump backed down because his tariffs were just stupid and counterproductive. And it all came back on him.

It's only Monday on his 2nd week in office. I haven't seen this ever with any other administration. It's not a great way to start.

Keep in mind, this is the Project 2025 playbook, written by the Charles Koch Heritage Foundation, which lying Trump disavowed knowing anything about, even though it was written by Russell Vought and over 100 characters from Trump's first administration.

Are we sure Trump caved? Or Mexico and Canada caved to his thuggery? It’s important. If so, please amplify!

No, Trump took this out quick and in a hurry. He knew Canada was planning on doing all of this border improvement. They want to stop the flow of guns coming from the US into Canada.

Now I do wish Trudeau would have stepped up and told Trump he needs to do better keeping guns out of Canada.

Put Trump's feet to the freaking fire.

The border between Montana, and North Dakota —— and Canada —— is a barbed wire fence design to keep Angus Cattle on one side or the other while allowing them to graze on the other side as cattle so often do………the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.
