Trudeau's tears are pure Trumpenfreude Don Surber Thursday, February 28, 2019 donsurber.blogspot.com Forget coffee. Forget tea. Even forget beer. This morning we are drinking liberal tears. Imported from Canada. Justin Trudeau, prime minister of Canada, is about to become its ex-prime minister. Last summer, as President Trump renegotiated NAFTA with Mexico, Trudeau took potshots at him believing that Canada with one-eighth the USA's economy had the upper hand. Real Clear Politics reported on June 10, "Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau commented on US President Donald Trump's imposition of tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum during the G7 Summit in Charlevoix, Quebec, after President Trump left to meet Kim Jong Un in Singapore. "On Saturday Trump accused Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of making false statements and said that the US will not endorse a G7 communique." American liberals cheered because they hate Donald John Trump almost as much as they hate America. Adam Gopnik of the New Yorker wrote, "Right now is a nice time to be Canadian. Brought up in Canada, as I was, and married to a woman so Canadian that she is both Winnipeg Icelandic and Winnipeg Jewish (you would have to be a Canadian to grasp the full glory of that combination), I have the immediate urge to praise Canada, set in motion by Justin Trudeau’s recent rebuke of Donald Trump at the G-7 summit. "There, Trudeau made it plain that he and his country were not about to be bullied by the American President, not on a question of unilateral tariffs, not about anything. Trump responded with gangster-style threats and sneers, followed by more threats and sneers from his associates. Trudeau, a young man generally thought to lack the great prime-ministerial gravitas of his late father, Pierre, emerged as a statesman and a leader. On Monday, the Canadian Parliament voted its unanimous support for his statements." The combined GDP of the six other G-7 countries (including Canada) is smaller than the U.S. economy. Their combined populations are 33% larger, and their territory is almost double the USA's size. But go ahead and root for the other team. In August, Mexico and President Trump reached an agreement, which Canada had no choice but to sign on. Tariffs have a way of reminding squeaky voiced adolescents who the boss is. Ezra Levant today brought word that Trudeau's decision to feud with Donald Trump reached the conclusion so many similar feuds with The Donald have ended: bad for the feuder with Donald Trump unaffected.

He's irreparably damaged. Here's what happened in a few short tweets. pic.twitter.com/E57BxWPKhK Ezra Levant ???Verified account @ezralevant 4h4 hours ago 2. Trudeau was detonated today by his former Attorney General, Jody Wilson-Raybould, Canada's first Aboriginal A-G. She just testified in Parliament, in meticulous detail, how Trudeau and his staff tried to get her to drop criminal charges against a corrupt company that he liked.
