Canada to cut off electricity to US states: "Need to feel the pain"

Meanwhile, our ACTUAL PM is saying things like:
“The most important thing right now — more important than anything else — is for Canadians to remain united. This is a time for us to pull together.”
and
Tariffs are the USA's plan to “see a complete collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us, is the second part of his thought. That is never going to happen. Canada will never be the 51st state”
But that doesn't make good accelerationist bluster for headlines, so all the Yankee media will ignore it in favour of Canadaman Dougie.

As a US citizen and Canada/Ukraine/EU/democracy supporter; I pray someone or some group finally takes off all kiddie gloves and gives trump (and thereby me and others in the country as collateral) a divine smackdown to finally make that fucker or at least those close to him realize the world and history won’t stand for his/their fascist putin titty-sucking antics.

Just gonna pedantically mention that "kid gloves" aren't something like mini boxing gloves for kids and tiny-handed presidents, they're adult dress gloves made from supple kid (goat) leather. One would remove them for bareknuckle brawling. So "kiddie" doesn't quite work. Obviously this is an informal forum, but it's something to know in case you are talking about something more serious, like having to handle a difficult client with kid gloves; i.e. circumspectly.
"That fucker's fascist Putin-titty-sucking antics" is spot-on. Appropriate for any situation, imho.

Bwahahaha! So not what I expected.

Americans will be rethinking sanctions on other countries when they see who is actually suffering.
-
Unfortunately it likely won’t be the billionaires suffering, so I’m not sure how much meaningful rethinking will be going on unless pressure on them is relentless.

These tariffs are already wildly unpopular in the US, the problem is that our government has been fully captured by the nazis and there's not much that can be done about it. Most people I know sre hoping that the international response will be harsh enough to spur meaningful change, though nobody really thinks that will happen.
-
Yeah, exactly. To others, please don’t group all Americans together in this shit show. “Americans” aren’t doing this, our clown of a President and his people are.
-
and there's not much that can be done about it.
That's true in the sense that the range of possible remedies has shrunk drastically. It does not mean we can't execute the remedies that remain, however.
-
It's weird because I was watching the markets today and they seem completely irrational. It should have dropped a lot more today, but really didn't. I don't know if this is just the calm before the storm - stocks at near ATHs before the Donald-created Great Depression or lots of speculators are just hoping that donvict carves out just enough exceptions and is bluffing in other cases, etc...

Canada is not messing around.
-
Somehow I doubt Trump would give a damn about MN, NY, and MI (although he won MI, Detroit would be competition to his buddy) and would just say it was the fault of blue state policies.
-
And, somehow, Biden, Hillary and Obama’s fault.
-
A lot of Trumps support comes out of rural MI and WI, and they talk to each other.
Part of me hopes the reason he doesn't care is because he can't run for election again.

i hope canada does it. i live in a state where my bill would go up dramatically too as we get power from canada when the water is low and slow. all the republicans here can FAFO. Ill put in the extra hours at work idgaf. i just hope it wakes people up

Rather than turn it off, jack up the cost by 25% with the line item Trump Tariffs in larger bold letters. Add another 25% and another line item called Democracy Tax while they're at it.
Hit them in the pocketbook.
