Another brilliant show tonight. Your assessments + predictions about Trump are right on.
I'd like to add that Ontario Canada has also been affected by the Trump trade war, with layoffs, especially in the auto + steel industry.

Jeff Bezos is a decidedly unfit owner for the Washington Post if this is all it takes to get him to fold. Profile in non courage. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/w...

How do you like them electoral apples?

That’s right folks: Canada elected a Liberal minority government, and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre lost the seat he’s held for more than two decades.

There’s a lot to talk about. Let’s dive in!

I have just asked the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call a federal election on April 28.

We need to build the strongest economy in the G7. We need to deal with President Trump’s tariffs. Canadians deserve a choice about who should lead that effort for our country.

It’s official: Trump is dragging down not just the U.S. economy but the entire global economy, too.
That's according to th new OECD economic outlook, which showed higher inflation and slower global growth this year due to uncertainty and trade wars

Opinion | It’s not just the U.S. Trump is bad for the entire global economy.
Forecasts are now predicting slower growth and higher prices — thanks to Trump’s policies.

Millions of tourists will not come here now. Foreign students will find somewhere else to get an education. Foreign investors will put their money elsewhere because Trump has broken the belief that America is a safe bet. We are only beginning to witness the consequences of this tragic mistake.

#Canada please pay attention to avoid USA's fate
PLEASE WATCH and SHARE LIBERALLY:

Poilievre knows he'd have to acknowledge and sever ties to oligarchic dark money, disinformation channels & MAGA.

The fascistic right has usurped the CPC, just as it did the GOP. They aren't the loyal opposition anymore: they are in bed with the enemy.
