@grok, what was the FDI of Canada vs the us? Per Capita and absolute? Which was higher in 2025?

@OskaycanT @KnightLegg You can't stop thinking about sucking Trump's dick.

@KnightLegg "second poorest US state after Mississippi." You know the person you're talking to wants to suck Trump's dick non-stop when they use this line. GDP per capita ISN'T a measure of standard of life lmao. Mississippi scares away dumpster fires

How to lose a trade negotiation Step 1: travel to minor, inconsequential markets for a year. Fail to reverse the decade of Liberal policies making Canada the second poorest US state after Mississippi. Step 2: play up a performative “middle power resistance” schtick and mis-cite Vaclev Havel - whose antagonism to political cynicism would hate this ‘elbows up’ embarrassment. Step 3: run out of time and strategic options while Mexico creates a bilateral alternative to CUSMA. In 1812, our generals weren’t playing with figurines their New York friends gave them and talking about previous battles to prepare the nation for an anticipated failure from their own lack of preparation and focus. Canada has a generational opportunity to create the largest and most consequential free trade zone with the largest economy in the world. This video is a national embarrassment.

1. Canada won't get a better deal. The US is making the deals it needs, and is becoming less dependant on Canada. 2. Canadians will be treated as if they mean the things they have been saying. 3. Future US admins will continue to raise tariffs on Canada. USMCA will expire and tariffs will be applied across all goods and services. 4. China will engage in dumping to destroy Canadian industry. This will be embraced as a temporary reprieve from inflation.

@KnightLegg @anthonyTkim 1. One can not and should not surrender sovereignty of one's country. Thats non negotiatble. 2. Canada is not a state of USA. 3. Aligning with present administration in USA is NOT necessary. Canada can negotiate with USA in a saner administration.

@Chadmoneymatter @KurtSchlichter Take their kids, garnish their wages to pay for kids whose parents wouldn't take care of them.

@KurtSchlichter What happens when they dont? Is it the kids fault they got shit parents? Shiuld we punish the shit parents by letting the kids starve? I dont understand your solution

Parents should feed their kids, not the government

@AuntHat_47 @wil_da_beast630 Let me know when public school teachers accomplish this. We've been waiting for 50 years.

@wil_da_beast630 Ok. Find someone with high IQ/SATs that can control a class of 30 children at once and teach them. You can't. They would not last a week and they could not speak at the level of a public school student.

Teachers post lower SAT/IQ scores than any other white collar profession except social workers.

You just want them to be obese to maximize human suffering. See how straw man arguments can work both ways?

@TomSteyer Gavin Newsom would like you to vote for Steve Hilton?

California: The man who brought you $8 gasoline would like you to vote for Steve Hilton.

@boujiebaddie @EricLDaugh DARVO

@EricLDaugh Shows democrats are people with morals!! Show us the billionaires that leave the Republican Party after finding out Trump was involved with Epstein?

🚨 WOW! California billionaire Stephen Cloobeck LEAVES the Democrat Party because of Eric Swalwell "I am NO LONGER a Democrat! I'm now a Libertarian Republican!" The billionaire ENDORSED Swalwell for governor, but has rescinded it Cloobeck banished Eric Swalwell from his $26 million dollar mansion in Beverly Hills for betraying his trust 📽️ @MattSeedorff

@EricLDaugh This billionaire dude makes no sense to me, but welcome aboard I guess.

@finn_dorsa80557 @EricLDaugh Oh sorry, you created a straw man, and attributed me to saying it, and then you complained that I attributed it to you. Either way you're still exactly and precisely wrong.

@Hobo_Ceasar @EricLDaugh I’m not claiming anything, simply seeking clarification of what you stated But such finery of English is probably too subtle for your comprehension But thank you for the clarification of grand master Trump’s plan

🚨 THIS IS A TRUMP MASTERCLASS! President Trump surged two Naval DESTROYERS through the Strait of Hormuz to PROVE to international carriers that the path is clear of sea mines, ahead of today's blockade This completely circumvents what the IRGC bluffs about publicly because the US Navy did it themselves! And Iran won't be able to sell one single solitary barrel of oil until they cave. It's laughable anyone thinks Trump didn't have a plan all along. 🔥

@finn_dorsa80557 @EricLDaugh The US has imposed a targeted blockade on Iranian traffic since they have imposed a blockade on NATO traffic. This is a move to pressure Iran to lift their blockade of allies. Literally the opposite of what you are claiming.

@Hobo_Ceasar @EricLDaugh So you’re saying Trump shuts the strait to starve his allies of oil With an ally like that who needs enemies 🤔

If you call 30-500:1 kill ratios losing wars, then that explains why so called Great Britain needed rescuing twice. The US doesn't need the strait open, but you do. Like a rabid dog you turn on your best ally, and won't lift a finger to help yourself. This is a great example of why the US should pull out of NATO and stop riding to GB's rescue.

@EricLDaugh The USA, arrive 2 years late for WW2, stomps around the World losing wars, and in its latest round of aggression manages to turn the whole world against it (except for Benjy boy 🇮🇱) and shut the very thing it wanted kept open what a bunch of gonads

The U.S. has half of its rigs stacked. We can double our production. We also have wells already drilled that are not being produced yet because the demand was not there. We drill 6-8 wells per pad and only produce 2 wells at a time. You look like an idiot when you have no idea what you’re talking about and act like an expert. Just because Australia can’t produce their own oil doesn’t mean we can’t. Drill Baby Drill

@beerswithboggs @Knesix Literally this sequence of events does

@Knesix I mean, Trump is a retarded impulsive child and absolutely nothing in the past 12 years suggests he’s a deep, deliberate, multi order thinker, but sure.

I honestly thought this map was made up Hundreds of supertankers, the kind that carry two million barrels each, are currently racing toward the US Gulf Coast from every direction. Atlantic, Indian Ocean, around Africa, the scenic route, the "we were heading to Saudi Arabia but NVM" route. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz and everyone panicked. Oil hit $126 a barrel. Gas hit $4 a gallon. Cable news did the thing where they put a red banner on screen and say "CRISIS" in a font that suggests you should be hoarding toilet paper. And then something happened that nobody in media seems interested in reporting, for obvious reasons. The world just... switched suppliers? Like changing your internet provider except the internet provider is the entire effing global energy economy. American oil exports are approaching record levels. Gulf Coast refineries are running at 95% capacity. Supertankers that were mid-ocean on their way to the Persian Gulf literally turned around and headed to Texas. That's not a metaphor. Ship tracking data shows them doing U-turns in the Indian Ocean. Meanwhile China, which was getting 45% of its oil imports through Hormuz and paying basement prices for sanctioned Iranian crude, is now competing with Japan and Europe for the same expensive American barrels. Chinese manufacturers are already raising prices 20% on goods headed to the US. So to summarize: Iran played its biggest card and the main result is that the United States became the world's emergency gas station and China's cheap energy subsidy evaporated. This is either the most elaborate coincidence in the history of geopolitics... or someone planned the sequence Venezuela -> Iran -> profits! I'll let you figure out which one

@aniell1259 @Knesix @SunTzusWar It's a global oil market.

@Knesix @SunTzusWar I love President Trump and all that he is doing for our country and the world, however can someone please explain to me then, why our gas prices in the USA are still rising instead of going down? >$4 a gallon is killing my budget.

@GravityAnalyti1 @kejca You can leave a household any time you want. Socialism isn't so easy to leave.

@kejca All households are socialism.

Charlie Munger: "If you're a pure socialist, you're a nutcase. An absolute nutcase. And not a modest nutcase — a real nutcase." "You can be a perfect nut with a high IQ." "If we want a productive society, we can't help but have these personal incentives to handle your own affairs — and if you do that, you get unequal wealth outcomes. The price of plenty is that you can't have socialism."

@AzathothReturns @monsterhunter45 He also hates Ronald Reagan, and hence has issues with the 80s.

@monsterhunter45 Another underappreciated bonus of all of your great writing is not having to wade through the 1960s again and again and again. I swear King has his issues with the 1960s locked in a room in his house like Norman Bates' mother.

I recommend Larry Correia novels. At least I know how to write an ending. :)

@monsterhunter45 The ending to the stand was one of the worst ever.

@Bexstarr @harukaawake @SamEldridge87 Trillions of dollars have gone from western countries to help developing countries.

@harukaawake @SamEldridge87 The US gave Japan billions to rebuild. Former colonies received nothing. Some of the colonist destroyed the infrastructure when they left. Before you say ignorant bs, like this, you should you should at least read about the history of the places you're trying to insult.

🇯🇵 I often see endless third world resentment toward the West and feel only pity. Hiroshima & Nagasaki were destroyed by atomic bombs. We lost everything. We didn't scream about trauma or demand endless reparations. We rebuilt. Today these cities are beautiful. So, drop the victimhood. Stop blaming history. Change and build something or otherwise get used to being disliked.

@gvictor808 @BitPaine Wow, I did not know this.

@BitPaine The funniest, reddest flag ever is that Blackrock and Strategy are both using garbage Coinbase to custody their Bitcoin. None of that is by choice, obviously...it's a humiliation ritual. Fix this now.

we’re going to have to do this without Coinbase - but that was always going to happen, wasn’t it? they aligned their entire business model to profit from *everything BUT Bitcoin* trade your Bitcoin for a shitcoin - Brian profits hold / transact in a stablecoin? Brian profits use some bullshit centralized .eth L2? Brian profits. their only institutional incentive is shitcoinery. but bitcoin doesn’t need Coinbase. we have BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, and MSTR. The smart money has chosen bitcoin. let Coinbase die along with CLARITY and bury them with their dumb money shitcoin traders. good riddance, fuckers. Bitcoin doesn’t care.
