The fact that he won’t be has no bearing at all on the fact that he should be.

This is a moment.

Carney needs to very clearly announce, in these exact words if necessary, that Trump can go fuck himself.

The President of the United States is a deranged lunatic and needs to be removed from office per the 25th Amendment.

It would almost be better of Trump was a conscious agent deliberately working for the benefit of China, but he’s just an angry, petulant, bigoted moron whose rage and greed and stupidity have pretty much guaranteed that China is going to lead the world in pretty much everything in the coming years while the US clings increasingly desperately to a mostly illusory past.

"We certainly can’t control President Trump, but … we can control our defense investments, who we award contracts to and how we are ultimately able to create jobs in Canada. So we’re going to focus on that.”

We need much more of this sort of thing.

It needs to reach the point at which the universal international response to Trump’s latest bullshit is a diplomatically phrased (or even not) “Fuck you.”

Whatever it is and whoever is on the receiving end - “Fuck you.”

If you can be effectively censored by the banning of a site flooded with CSAM, that’s very much your problem and nobody else’s.

Remember when the government was shut down specifically because the Democrats refused to go along with a bill that ended the health insurance subsidies, and they had the Republicans up against the ropes because no matter how much they tried to dodge the responsibility, the majority of people blamed Republican intransigence for the shutdown?

Then remember how the Schumer-led Democrats just completely folded, passed the bill, then stood idly by as the chance to extend the subsidies vanished?

Every single one of those stinking traitorous shitbags needs to be primaried.
