It's not dumb only if their intent is to destroy the US and the West from within for Putin.
He bankrupted his casinos, and he intends to do the same to US.
"Nobody knows more about bankrupting your own businesses like I do. People ask me, how can you bankrupt a casino? They're money printers! And I tell them, I'm the best there is at it. I'm going to make this country the most bankrupt country there is and it is going to be so beautiful. People love me for this. They love me bigly."
It just needs some

Trudeau has really risen to the occasion since announcing his resignation
I think Trudeau is best when he gets to lead a country, and not have to deal with politics. I mean, he's not the best policy maker, IMO, but we've had worse PMs. Whenever he has to do "politics" stuff though he's... well, bad.
He’s above Harper in my books.
Well yea but that’s a low fuckin’ bar.
Two things I keep in mind from Harper, gutting employment insurance, trying to raise retirement age to 67 oh and the sax serenade to Netanyahu. Make it three
Don’t forget hiding in a Brazilian bathroom because he didn’t get to be a special boy for no reason!
wow, I missed that one.
Is it bad that I'm kind of glad not to have come into adulthood until after this guy was gone? Like I feel like from what I've heard, if heard it now from a prime minister, I'd probably lose my fucking mind.
But who knows, maybe we'll see a 2.0 in a couple months and all get to experience an exceptionally bad PM (hopefully not).
He's always handled good under pressure. Is argue he was also the best we could have gotten during the pandemic and I'm saying this as someone who was equally happy with Ford during the pandemic and also happy with Ford during this tarriff bullshit. Ford can suck a massive bag of dicks but I can't hate him on his response for this.
Imo, Ford fucked the pandemic response. He turned down billions from the feds. Hospitals had to do temp shutdowns. Took too long to do anything about the clownvoy. The only reason more ontarians didn't die is because of the federal health minister
I live in a pretty liberal city (thank god). After the election the one neighbor who supported Trump proudly flew his Trump flag. Within the last few days the flag has been removed. I can’t tell if I’m happy he took it down or just real fucking pissed off. I’d like to think my neighbor has finally gotten it through his thick skull but I really think he should be forced to fly that flag so people know what a cunt he is.
I’m reminded of Inglorious Basterds, and the carving hobby of Brad Pitt.
However, I’d luuuuv to go all Bear Jew on a ‘bag of Cheetos’.
That one’s coming down on Lansdowne Street!
I had a neighbor like that who removed his right after Jan 6. It went right back up in 2024.
Now, that's the reaction I'd expect. Go Canada and lets connect with EU instead.
Krasnov Trump is working for Putin. What were you expecting?
I wish I also could say Trump is dumb on national television.
I don't think he actually said that though, the only quote I saw that included the word dumb was "It's not in my habit to agree with The Wall Street Journal. Donald, they point out that even though you're a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do".
Yes. He heaped praise and then separated the dumb actions from the 'smart' person. This is how a parent could talk to a child.
Go ahead then
Gotta tell ya, the phrase “America’s growing tensions with Canada” was not a headline I thought I would ever see.
rump and his supporters are beyond very dumb! History will use the term maga in the future to describe the ultra dumb!
rump, of course. I refer to him as dumps, but rump is perfect. much more efficient. thanks.
Donald, they point out that even though you are a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do.
Fuck we're getting invaded.
You're with WSJ? Yeah, you're fucked.
Does Trump think Canadian Bacon was a documentary?? How is he this stupid??
I doubt he's even heard of it. Probably thinks that's just Kevin Bacon's cousin.
Justin is the most handsome president. Canada is so Lucky. We get donal piece of dog shit ruzzian asset tax evader nazi pedo asshole sonobabich draft evading dementia patient rapist felon trumpfus.
Somehow our founding fathers didn't foresee a need to call for a recall. That's fucked up. We have to deal with this orange was of shit for 4 years without the possibility of recalling him with a majority vote or something.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
