Trump said:
“They have many purposes, tariffs, if properly used,” he explained. “I don’t say you use them like a madman. I say properly used.”

Right, I don't. But you do.

I'm not sure Trump even knows what a tariff actually is. There's a lot of stuff he claims to be an expert on that he's totally clueless about.

That is the stretchiest use of "a lot" that I have heard today.

Edit - Dude claims to be an expert on absolutely every subject that appears important to him and he doesn't know a whole lot about ANYTHING. I'd bet $20 he isn't even a good golfer.

Edit - After some research, I am not shaking on that golf bet. Testimony says that he moves his ball and exaggerates his scores after the game, but that he is a genuinely good amateur if he didn't.

It's absolutely the second one, and I wish Trudeau had the balls to tell him in no uncertain terms exactly where he can stick his dreams of annexing Canada, and threaten to slam the door in his stupid face if he dares to bring it up again.

He wouldn't like the results of Canada being a state anyway. Canada sits left of the US as a whole and it would result in the Republicans losing power in congress. It would also make the electoral college map less favorable to the Republicans. They would HAVE to split Canada up into multiple states in order to stay in power. Only way it could happen would be for Canada to request annexation(not gonna happen) or for the US to go full-on imperialist and just start invading and taking territory(likely won't happen, but Trump and the sycophants he has surrounded himself with would possibly like to try)

Florida already puts up with them. Their driving skills are considered legendary down here.

I don't know how splitting it in pieces would help. Every piece would get 2 Senators.

If they split the conservative areas into a lot of small states and the liberal areas into a few large states, that would gain them a lot of conservative seats.

I am doubtful that they would be able to gerrymander up the states.

I mean, we are talking about a fantasy here. Canadians obviously want to be near the United States, but they don't want to be it. But if they were joining these United States I really think there is no solution other than admitting each province as a state.
