'It's ridiculous': U.S. closing historic Border Road to Canadian traffic

So the road is in the United States, is used by both Americans and Canadians, and.... Canada.... maintains the road. Plows it, grades it, keeps it open. Canadian equipment crosses the border to keep an American road open. What horrible neighbors those Canadians are, using their own money to keep American roads clear. /s Now, there will be a Canadian road, just on the other side of a shallow ditch that a Toyota Corolla could cross without getting stuck, that the Canadians will maintain for their own use, and the American road either goes unmaintained, or costs the US extra tax dollars to maintain. Great outcome. Just a great outcome. /s

Is the US govt building this road or a private contractor with connections ……hmmmm

You'd have to be deranged to support him.

It is and it describes all of maga

Always has been.

It’s called projection, which describes pretty much everything he says and does.

Almost didn't see the /s and was ready to rage.

trump literally said we dont need allies

I am American by birth. I am neutral about that fact, as we all can’t choose where we’re from. I’ve never voted for a single Republican candidate in my life because I felt they were always wanting to take America in the directions we’re headed now. I am surprised at how broad they’re incredibly (bad, reckless, cruel, all of the above?) policies were. It seems they’re attacking things I never thought we’re under dispute (science? Education? Facts?). I imagine the world feels hurt, scared, and deeply disappointed in this country. I feel that way about the millions of voters who made this possible and (even worse) still actively support this nightmare. I cannot apologize for people who created this. I don’t their apologies will ever be enough, because there’s so much that an apology can never fix. But, I hope the world know that there are many Americans like me who deeply value our allies, our neighbors and our fellow world citizens. We are in this as much as you and we have no idea where things will land. We’re just hoping to survive.

Indeed, what’s the possible reason for alienating our closest allies? Almost like the person in charge does not have the best interests of the nation in mind. Sorta like how abusers will make their victims stop talking to family and friends right before escalating the abuse. Weird.

he wants it to be the 51st state. this is another escalation to getting that wish

Did you just wake up from a nap you started in early 2024? Trump has pissed off everyone (except nettanyahoo (sic)) because he’s a raging toddler

Trump doesn't believe in "allies", and he sees doing something that benefits anyone else as a sign of weakness. Therefore any mutual benefit action, Trump won't do or let the US do for Canada, and anything Canada does Trump takes as a weakness and tries to force them to do more. Just stupidity after stupidity.

Remind everyone that the GOP can remove Trump by tomorrow if they do wish. They’re the reason Trump is doing this, not Trump (ironically)

Have been for decades honestly

Alberta is full of MAGA fans who’d like to secede from Canada, I don’t think Canada wants to encourage that by bringing in more Americans.

Careful, those could be fighting words to some!
