I’m an American and plead guilty to being mesmerized by flim flam. My favorite book to curl up with is an old Guinness Book of Records I found at a sale at my local public library when i was in high school.

So is it possible that Trump will set some kind of record for running four wars on four continents? Europe, Middle East, Asia (Taiwan Straits), and North America (Greenland). That would honestly be so cool.

Even better would be a simultaneous domestic insurrection. In his memories, Trump will write “I wanted America to burn so a new America could arise from its ashes”.

Trump is building the mad dream of mad Jews - the New and Global Jerusalem where all Jews will have five thousand slaves.

Impossible to disagree with you. Any honest worker in America is indeed a slave to the financial system, created by the Jews (eg Warburg) and enabled by old money Wasps (eg Morgan).

While the Christian church identified and reviled the Seven Deadly Sins, we now live in an America where these qualities will be deemed and demonstrated as “aspirational” for all — and perhaps renamed as the “Seven Cardinal Talmudic Virtues”.

Who is this Trump guy everybody talks about? I've never heard of him.

Dear, dear, dear, isn't the world an exciting place? As long as your not living in a place getting bombed. Surprises everyday. His emporial majesty, Donny Dumbfuk Trumpenstein is my favorite President, no other President is anywhere nearly as entertaining as him.

He got his start in reality TV without reality. And now it's reality politics without reality.

Damn right! My priorities have been entirely misplaced. Trump is same-old boring.

Small problem with your thesis, Canada is not a sovereign state but a string of British colonies run by Governors General or Lieutenant Governors which derive their power from The Crown. Carney, like Trudeau, swears allegiance to the Crown. Carney, as former Governor of the Bank of England has been installed to do what England's will and wish has always been - to take back the colonies which call themselves The United States of America. There is nothing cute about Canada. It is toxic and lethal.

Ditto the US which lost the War of Independence to England and sued for peace via the Treaty of Paris in 1783. Research it! The victor never sues for peace.

They are cowards and they are right to be afraid.

I think the secondary sanctions he mentioned would be on countries that are buying Russian oil. Not sure who that includes after China and India. Although that is two massive countries to secondary sanctions.

But if he does put secondary sanctions on countries buying Russian oil, he will still be called a "Putin puppet" by Democrats and Never Trumpers. They never noticed he was against Nord Stream 2, gave javelins to Ukraine (that Obama withheld) and increased sanctions on Russia, all in his first term.

But he could be called an "Adelson puppet".

Congrats to the Canucks for landing the LNG deal with China. The US needs to learn its lesson about treating others poorly. Everyone else can get along and prosper without the Donald.

Yes, but the initiative came from China - not from the Canucks, who were too busy drinking beer and watching hockey.

Alienating neighbours is never a good idea, even if you think they are bad. It will take Canada decades to retooll their short-sighted trade patterns. Canadians have no one to blame but themselves and their colonial overlords which answer to The City of London and the Palace.

Selling LNG to asian countries is not going to create jobs. With tariffs restricted borders, canadians will be out of work by the 10s thousands.

Correct. The profits go to those who own the oil industry in Canada. If the government owned, or at least, could get hold of some of those profits (as would be the case in China) it could subsidize startups and industrial infrastructure in other areas.
