The irony is that in 2028, a state with the same population as Canada might hold a referendum about leaving America. This trade dispute just might push California over the edge, and I am not talking about earthquakes.

If America is so out of control and beyond the reach of the Rule of Law and the Constitution that it can elect Trump (recall that he is considered to be potentially a traitor to the Constitution by the Supreme Court), then it is definitely within the realm of possibility that California could separate.

He clearly doesn't want a trade deal with Canada. Fuck this senile old clown.

He has no concept of a mutually beneficial deal or how international relations work. Any deal where the other side walks away happy is a bad deal to him.

The mistake is taking anything he says seriously. His words are meaningless on every level.

Yup He doesn't want a deal, he just wants our resources for free.

It's worse than that, he wants us to pay him to take our resources. fdjt 86 47
