Oh Canada
Who knew?
I always believed that Canadians were nice.
Turns out they’re the biggest threat to our national security.
Will they shoot hockey pucks at us?
The G-7 summit turned into a 6 and 1 situation. There are photos making the rounds of world leaders...our allies...surrounding a defiant Trump who is sitting there with a smug look and crossed arms.
Great look.
And the defiance that he’s showing is an awful lot like the early morning tweets.
“The deals are awful.”
“I’ll fix it.”
“We’ll see what happens.”
Justin Trudeau seems like an amiable sort of guy. He pushed back as roughly as a Canadian pushes back, never once raising his voice, not throwing insults, didn’t even call anyone a name. Just said that tariffs would be answered with tariffs.
And all the tough talk sounds great, but I listened to an economic expert the other day.
“It won’t work,” he said. “And you know why it won’t work? Because we already tried it. George W.’s administration attempted to travel the same route.”
And we’re hearing a lot about the big deal maker.
“It’s what I do.”
It’s the biggest joke of them all.
Trump steaks? Trump wines? Trump casinos? Trump University?
How many bankruptcies?
How many lawsuits and foreclosures?
Perhaps there’s a tad of exaggeration when it comes to how good a deal maker he is.
I just don’t believe that the path around the world is best traveled alone.
“Russia should be allowed back into the G-7,” Trump announced.
So, for those not keeping score:
We are fighting with Canada, England, France, and Japan.
We bailed out a China tech company.
We are meeting with North Korea (called them honorable)
And we’re carrying Russia’s water.
They interfered in our election. They attacked their neighbors. They shot down a plane.
“It’s Opposite Day!” My kid’s used to declare.
Trade wars?
We’re fighting Canada.
Hope we don’t settle it with a hockey tournament.
We’ll get beat.
Bigly.
