11. What's incredible is how inept Trump is

His supporters think he’s a genius, but there is absolutely no strategy whatsoever. It’s all bluster and ego.

Trudeau was historically unpopular and Trump could have had another conservative partner to do his bidding in the continent. Poilievre was basically MAGA lite and it would have been easy to mostly rollover him (though I’m sure giving up national sovereignty would be a step too far for Canadian conservatives).

Trump’s supporters in oil and gas and mining on both sides of the border are probably especially pissed since they have been frustrated by Trudeau’s environmental policies.

Unsurprisingly, this is mostly blowing up in his and his supporters faces. Oh well
