Trump Trolls Canada, Denmark, and Panama for Christmas but Behind the Fun He Makes Serious Points

Just because it is a season for peace on earth and goodwill towards men doesn't mean you can't mercilessly troll the vulnerable. Or, at least, that seems to be the philosophy of the Trump transition team. After taking a poke at Panama while announcing a new ambassador to that country (see Trump Doubles Down on Panama 'Ripping Off' America With New Ambassador Pick), Trump went for the trifecta.

"Merry Christmas to all, including to the wonderful soldiers of China, who are lovingly, but illegally, operating the Panama Canal (where we lost 38,000 people in its building 110 years ago), always making certain that the United States puts in Billions of Dollars in “repair” money, but will have absolutely nothing to say about “anything.” Also, to Governor Justin Trudeau of Canada, whose Citizens’ Taxes are far too high, but if Canada was to become our 51st State, their Taxes would be cut by more than 60%, their businesses would immediately double in size, and they would be militarily protected like no other Country anywhere in the World. Likewise, to the people of Greenland, which is needed by the United States for National Security purposes and, who want the U.S. to be there, and we will!…"

Meanwhile Trump. Who is an anglophile despite everything, appoints a British born ex-Para who became a US citizen but still has family in England in order to try and build good relations whilst we (or rather the Labour government) sends Lord Peter Mandelson, a deep state Europhile snake with a history of verbally abusing Trump. I can only assume this brazen “FU” to Trump is a plot to drive Britain away from the US and back towards the EU, despite the fact we voted for Brexit. I cannot tell you how much I despise two tier and his government of student politician morons.

Amen.

Biden and Obama sold us out.

Obama was an evil Marxist who hated America. And Biden might have been stupid but, when it comes to selling us out to China, his greed and corruption more than made up for his stupidity.

On the point of China, Clinton was the worst imo. If it hadn’t been for him, China might only be about 1970’s in military technological development. Clinton helped China make a 50 leap forward in military capabilities.

The Carter-Torjillos Treaty cut the US out of any voice in managing the Canal, and, as we're seeing, that may have been a blunder.

MAY have been a blunder?!

Canada? Of course. Threaten 25% tariffs if they don't firm up their border. They'll get the message. Panama? We don't want Red China controlling the Panama Canal. Period! Denmark? I read that the Danish government has just announced a huge strengthening of their defense posture in Greenland. Less danger that Russia...North Korea...or China will try anything.

Trump’s on the side of the country - NOT on the side of the grifters and lowlifes pigs running things now... Biden will go down as the worst President in our History.

Good to see there a few of us here who don't view the Clinton presidency as a benign eight years of big government is over/reformed welfare/balanced the budget. He and his power mad wife along with their lying at every turn VP put a capital CORR on corruption and sold us out to the Chicoms worked they were destroying us from the inside. The selling of missile technology to China through Loral leading the way.

You can go back through my comments and think that I'm part of the "Oh, he's just a big lecherous lovable hillbilly" crowd because I poke fun at him all the time, but you'll find just as many comments showing that I know how corrupt and soulless the Clintons are. That's how his administration was, that's how they've been out of office, and then the grifting went full scale again during her disastrous time as Secretary of State when selling out the country to pad their bank account (and kicking back to Bathhouse Barry for appointing her SoS) was a full-time job.

Foreign policy is not a good place to “troll”. Better to make a detailed but forceful speech backed by a documented white paper.

Absolutely! They have weaken our military strength and no one fear us anymore. I don’t know how Trump is going to apply pressure on the nations who think we are a joke now. Our military is a mess the Pentagon is full of woke queer generals in high heels and mini skirts. The world watched the disgusting nature of our military high ranking officials they saw it and we saw it. They saw the joke and they laughed their heads off! President Trump’s task got more difficult this time around and he can’t do it on his own this will only come from God Almighty who MIGHT give America back its superpower strength supernaturally. Otherwise consider China the number one superpower in the whole world. America’s superpower status has slipped away due to our most evil destructive presidents ever to hold office in American history who sold us out to the highest bidders and it woke agendas.😢
