Spineless Trudeau Shakes in His Boots: Trump Plans to Turn Canada into America’s Bitch
Donald Trump has made it crystal clear he’s ready to use “economic force” to drag Canada kicking and screaming into becoming the United States’ 51st state, leaving Justin Trudeau looking like the wet noodle he is. During what can only be described as a bizarre press conference, the 78-year-old Trump claimed that the U.S. doesn’t need anything Canada has, from cars to lumber to dairy, painting a picture of Canada as a pathetic, needy neighbor.
Trudeau, in a move that screams “desperation,” announced his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party and as Prime Minister, leaving Canada leaderless just as Trump’s inauguration looms. Trump has been taunting Trudeau with the idea of making Canada the 51st state since a dinner in November at Mar-a-Lago, where he suggested Trudeau could be the governor of this new “state,” a humiliating downgrade for the Canadian PM.
The tension has been building since Trump threatened a 25% tariff on all Canadian imports if Canada doesn’t get its act together regarding migrants and drugs, a threat that could indeed “kill” the Canadian economy as Trudeau pathetically pleaded. Trump, in his usual brash style, responded by saying Canada can’t survive without leeching off the U.S.
With Trudeau’s political career in shambles, Trump’s latest comments on Tuesday imply he might not even need military force to absorb Canada; economic pressure will do just fine. This has led to an uproar on social media, where many see Trudeau’s resignation as an admission of defeat before the real battle even begins.
Trudeau’s government, now in disarray, is left scrambling to find a new leader while facing the prospect of becoming America’s latest annex. The once-proud Canadian PM, now seen as a “loser” by many, has little to show for his tenure other than a close shave with national humiliation at the hands of Trump’s economic threats.
