Is America really blaming other nations for its own problems?

[Notherndude84]

I found these stats about the border very interesting. Seems Trump is lying again 😔

[lightbulb27]

your point is valid that the totals don't align with the severity of the bashing. However, 42 pds of fentayl would wipe out... most of the country.

frankly, you should seal your border better... possibly good for your citizens.

I doubt you see a big problem given the numbers.

But if your first born child got exposed to that crap and died, it be a huge problem.

The question is do ya take action to address or not? The person in charge is hard nosed business man, does not have time to waste so forces people to the table. I never liked the personality or style, but he gets action. Otherwise, people get comfortable with..."oh... it's just 42lb or 800lb etc.. and oh... only 300 people died this year... that's a great number".

Canada is NOT the problem and USA has lots of problems because we are the huge carcass the world has been feeding off of for long time. There are many problems.

[seeyounexttuesday]

All the more reason to secure our southern border so we can (as always) help Canada.

[Notherndude84]

Guess we should have let American planes drop out of the sky on 911 when they closed US Airspace

[seeyounexttuesday]

Thank you for that completely nonsense reply.

[Notherndude84]

Have you forgotten what the people of Gander NL did for Americans on 911? It’s an interesting story I suggest you read it.

[seeyounexttuesday]

None of that has anything to do with collaborating to stop the flow of drugs from Mexico to Canada.

[Notherndude84]

Agreed more needs to be done. However Trump pointing his chubby fat finger at Canada and saying your a drug source country is a complete lie. Canada and America have a problem with drugs right now scapegoating and slapping tariffs isn’t going to fix anything. Trump is a week into his presidency perhaps a better solution is to have a responsible dialogue with neighbouring states about matters of mutual concern. That is how other presidents have solved issues in the past.

34 lbs of fentanyl can kill 11,000,000 people. So let’s not pretend it was pixie sticks.

[Notherndude84]

What about the 880 pounds that was seized coming in from the USA?

Oh how about the fact that America is a source country for illegal arm trafficking?

America can get its own house in order before pointing its fat fingers at neighbouring countries.

[seeyounexttuesday]

i fucking said we secure our southern border to keep Mexican fentanyl out of Canada.

[Notherndude84]

Wonderful idea 💡

[northerngal]

This is a waste of time. MAGA is a cult. They do not listen or consider facts or coherent arguments. I am certain if the Glorious Leader ordered them to drink the "Flavor Aide" they would without hesitation. The best Canada can do is to turn away from the United States as much as possible by diversification. Form partnerships economically and militarily with countries that actually honor their agreements. America should no longer be treated like a trusted friend and allies.

[NordicInScandinavia]

Of course they are.

They be perfect, nothing that is wrong is on them but everyone else.

The whole world should understand this by now. We should all cater to and strive to become like the US and it's people.

*Read with sarcasm pretty please*

[Notherndude84]

I’m half Canadian I understand sarcasm.

@notherndude84

I'm glad you can. Not everyone on here are capable. 😅

[Anonymous]

wait. so are you saying that CATCHING 21,000 pounds of fentanyl coming across the Mexico border is no big deal? Could you BE anymore ignorant? Fentanyl is considered a lethal dose at 2 MILLIGRAMS. There are 453,592.37 mg in ONE pound. Multiply that by the 21,000 you seem to be in favor of, and anyone but braindead Trump-haters can see a problem. Now, let me point out that your numbers only include actual seized amounts. They do not include the numbers of these items that were not caught. Surely, even the braindead among us can see that, correct?

Get rekt, son. 🤣

[Notherndude84]

Exactly only seizures, so both numbers in reality are higher. That means MERICA has the bigger problem.

[katiesmuff]

I AM SHOCKED !!! You think that worm of a lying bastard would tell a lie. God has sent him from heaven to lead the sheep right into the valley of the wolves. The slaughter has begun, so enjoy MAGA simpletons.

[Notherndude84]

I do find it funny that these religious zealots that comprise a significant percentage of MAGA prop him up as a man of God. If I were to pick a bible character to compare him to it would be Herod 🤣🤣

[Kelly6]

@katiesmuff
This is very well written, and accurate 😊

[IslaTheWitch]

most people blame others for their own problems... I don't think people who are in the US government are any different :D

[Anonymous]

Trump always has excuses and a scapegoat to blame. He never takes responsibility for anything. It's one of the main reasons he's the worst president ever. He's a pathetic excuse for a "leader"

[HighValue]

By your statement, it is obvious you are liberal and will only agree with lies. You have TDS.

[Astarlessnightsky]

Yes. Its the easy way out.

But its not just the US doing it.

[ProbablyClueless]

No. America isn't blaming other countries. America is blaming itself for the absurd leniency it has showed to other countries.

[exitseven]

By stopping the flow of illegal aliens and fentanyl smugglers into the US will make the contraband going into Canada will decrease.

[Filthy_Immigrant]

if you live in a bad neighborhood and people constantly break into your house does it mean you are blaming your problems on your neighbors when you complain about burglary?

[msc545]

Trump almost always lies even when there is no need to.

[beefcakebradybatson]

It always does, and with the American Caesar, it's much, much worse.

[Anonymous]

Well, those numbers show he is telling a half truth because his criticism of Mexico are valid while his criticisms of Canada are not.

[dustybiker2]

Expect nothing but lies.

[Valdemort]

Hasn't it always?

[Dargil]

That's OK. He will fix it.

[UrsulaY]

Unsurprising though considering the source.
