Trump is only interested in establishing a one-sided deal where the US reaps 90% of the benefits while the other party figures out how they can survive on the remaining 10% of breadcrumbs. And if there is no deal, even though not having a deal would hurt the US as well, he doesn't care. Bullying comes first.
I don't understand how so many people still don't understand this is how Trump operates. Or they blame Carney for not being able to get a deal done simply because that was the theme of his campaign. This Conservative critic that I saw on City News literally said in the (TV) discussion forum something to the effect of "It doesn't matter Trump is being difficult / unreasonable. Carney was the guy that campaigned on him being the one that is able to defend Canada and sign a deal with Trump, so we are going to hold him accountable to his word."
That kind of mindset is just bewildering...

Its become bewildering the speed in which Trump is flooding the zone with crap. The last few days alone:
-Pardoned Changpeng Zhao a white-collar crypto criminal who has publicly pledged to invest (and has done so already) into Trump's World Liberty Financial coin. We've always known pardons can be bought, but this one is so obviously in the open in its corruption that it's head spinning.
-White House ballroom construction has now suddenly ballooned to double the cost to the tune of $300+ million. Let that sink in, for a fucking ballroom. A fucking skyscraper can be built for $300 million. Anyone with an asshole and a mouth would know what's going on here, more corruption, more bribery, we all know this thing won't come to that cost. That money is on the take.
-Sues the DOJ for $230 million. Guess who runs the DOJ, Pam Bondi. We all know how this lawsuit will play out, they'll settle, Trump will walk away with hundreds more millions of taxpayer dollars.
This whole thing is fucking staggering.

I don't get it either. It's to buy airtime in the US, I guess. The production of it ... anyone can do the edit.

Carney's statement today was great:
"We stand ready to pick up on that progress, build on that progress when the Americans are ready to have those discussions"
It's like what you say to a 4 year old when they're having a temper tantrum.
"Now little Timmy, when you're finished and ready to calm down we can talk"
Lol
