Description

Not only did Trump pocket $2.2 billion last year—vastly increasing his pre-presidency wealth—he shamelessly showed off his new hand-me-down plane from Qatar which Americans paid hundreds of millions of dollars to upgrade. Not to mention, there's a massive conflict of interest involved in Trump taking a gift from a country that is directly impacted by his administration's foreign policy decisions. Plus: Vance can't tell a joke to save his life, Trump is the polar opposite of Teddy Roosevelt in almost every way, the Russian casualty count from the war in Ukraine has been catastrophic for the country and potentially destabilizing, and the challenge of celebrating 250 when Trump has inverted the American dream. Susan Glasser joins Tim Miller. This episode is sponsored by The New York Times.

I still can't believe that the Supreme Court legalized bribery and illegal self-dealing for the president.

Canada 🇨🇦 has diversified our trade with other countries. It’s pathetic they won’t even open the Gordie Howe bridge Canada paid for

We in Canada have faced the fact that any new deal with Trump isn't about fairness or honesty, it probably not worth the paper it's written on (as we see with the EU, England etc etc)... and... no matter how many concessions you give Trump and no matter how much you cater to him, it really means nothing. He's the bully that the more you give him the more he takes.

Canada here: THank you for FINALLY talking about this - it is outrageous how Canada is being treated by our "Closest friend". Here is what Canada has: water, electricity, oil (sold to the US at a discount!!!), copper, aluminum , softwood, ALL the critical minerals, best universities in the world, anyway, here's hopin' Canada doesn't decide to do some serious moves against the home of Exceptionalism. For sure, the damage done extends way beyond bourbon and who wins some sort of sports event. 70 million voted for this guy 3 times - 3 times....you have proven you are not reliable. Whatever. God luck America ...many of us are pulling for your liberation.

The deal with Canada was a deal TRUMP made in 2018. At that time he bragged about what a great deal it was. So absolutely bizarre that he now says it is not a good deal.
