    Boo fucking hoo. Like these tariffs aren’t gong to affect us either. I hope this’ll be a wake up call for americans who voted for him. I’m thinking about all those farmers in the mid-west and popular vacation destinations down south like Florida.

        This may not be your individual fault, but it’s your country’s fault, as a population.

        But YOU actually have the power to do something about it. YOU have the power to change this.

        WE CAN’T go to your state governors and yell at them. WE CAN’T go to your state representatives and yell at them. WE CAN’T go to your congresspeople and yell at them. BECAUSE WE’RE NOT AMERICAN. They won’t listen to us because THEY DON’T WORK FOR US, THEY WORK FOR YOU.

        If enough of you give them enough hell, they’ll eventually back down and stop supporting this bullshit.

        So it’s your responsibility to organize, protest, and give these fuckers hell and scare them into getting Trump and Vance the fuck out of the White House.

    Maybe Canada Customs can do extra long checks on anyone visiting US or coming back from US. Maybe even a quarantine order. There is a measle outbreak in US anyway.

      Yeah with the way they’re treating their health and safety regulators, there’s gonna be a ton of outbreaks in the next few years that I would rather stay the f on that side of the border please.
