    In other news: Boo Hoo.

    Fuck America under the current government. It’ll take decades to repair the damage the autistic Nazi and his cuck orange granddaddy have done not only to Canada but the world.

      It’ll take far longer to repair the damage they’re doing to America. I’m not even sure most of it can be repaired.

      Honestly, boycott us. Our capitalist classes need to be taken down a peg.

        Yeah, I never thought I’d say it, but I hope the entire world shuns America and fucks us over.

        I doubt even that will fix us, though. We are past some kind of disinformation event horizon, where most of us will never see much reality outside their local life, including leaders who are drinking the kool-aid. Even Idiocracy is kinda idyllic because at least Kamancho was relatively open minded.

          If you’d told me 6 months ago that I’d rather buy Chinese products than American, I would’ve put all my money on Trump. Or just not believed you, because it sounds insane.

          Well, here we are…

        Not even a voting majority. Look up drop off votes. They stole the election. If your country uses electronic voting machines stop by any means necessary.

        No, but our government and its corporate handlers are, and money is all they understand. They need to be hurt and we are unavoidable collateral damage.

        I’m an American myself. I want the country to die, so another may take its place. If the country doesn’t fall, the country will continue to slowly choke out everyone underneath it instead, with worse impact over time than the country outright collapsing.

        I only hold a grudge against the people who caused these problems in the first place. It’s my goal to support everyone I personally can.

    It’s going to be great once every American is jobless and has all the free time to pursue hobbies involving CEOs, and the orange and rodent cancers in the Federal government. Think of all the possibilities!

      Great for trump. He can just declare whatever crisis to do even more stupid things and grab more absolute power.

    I don’t live too far from the Canadian border. I’m sensing an opportunity to make bank on black market tools and office supplies.

    Everybody here in the US keeps telling me that I’m wrong when I say this stuff will destroy our economy.

    I sincerely hope the rest of the world proves them wrong.

      The thing about seeing things coming and having that insight be rejected by people is that they will really get angry if you say I told you so. In fact they will try to make you not convincing them being the real problem.

      Edit: Whoops fixed it.

      I mean look at the stock market, customer sentiment, etc. Everything is pointing down and we haven’t started to see the unemployment that’s going to be brought on from all the government layoffs and attempts to rescind grants/contracts.

      I think the next jobs report is going to be painful and we won’t see anything positive economically for a while after that.

        I expect the Trump government will prioritize cuts that make it difficult to get accurate data about the effects of the cuts.

          You’d think, but they’re literally cutting like mad men. And it looks like people are already noticing, Wisconsin just went blue for the judge and Florida got surprisingly close to flipping (if you look at the numbers it seems that Republicans were turning out in numbers to vote blue).

          This is the entire point of the deferred resignation program being offered to Federal workers. It keeps people from being able to claim unemployment and pushes the true jobless numbers out into the next fiscal year (October) at the earliest. Now, why do you think they don’t want the real pain point for the American people to be until after they’ve raised the debt ceiling and cut taxes on billionaires?

    Wonderful news. Keep it up even when tariffs are removed. We MUST grow Canadian made for Canadians to purchase.

      See, that’s the thing that gets me. Our countries have had a great trade relationship for a long while now and some giant Cheeto needs to go and piss on everyone’s shoes.

      I wholeheartedly agree with you, produce Canadian items so the American market suffers. Make the people who voted for this situation realize what they’ve done to themselves.

      My order of operations is Canadian -> European -> Anywhere else on the planet -> Decide if I actually need the thing or not -> Chinese -> American.

        As an American mine is Europe/Canada > the rest of the developed world OR blue states > Mexico > other countries > red states. It’s surprisingly easy to avoid food from red states. For tech/online services I prefer European over everywhere else.
