    This CEO apparently thought the US treating Canada like they are under sanctions, while threatening to invade them, is how you normally treat your biggest trade partner and close ally.

    In this upside-down you have Trump repeatedly threatening to invade Canada and Greenland while only being “upset” with Putin. He has got the whole US in travel advisories of close to a dozen countries at this point (not just the wacky Red States), and we are only 3 months in.

      Maybe it’s more they’re so used to Americans putting up with getting screwed that it’s surprising that we aren’t.

        True, last time they gave corporations bailouts (to “increase job growth and the economy”) they used for CEO bonuses and stock buy backs. However this time around Trump only seems interested in pardoning felony level corruption & assault (J6), while being all over the place with tariffs and Ukraine.
