Wow, just wow

[Tunnelcat]

All you Second Amendment lovers beware. Dictators don't like an armed populace. How long before the Malignant Mango Mussolini decides everyone having guns is a threat to his power, hmmmm? Before or after he declares martial law as more and more people start protesting, or losing their jobs, or get fed up with high food and gas prices or Medicare and Social Security being gutted or the outright corruption going on along with ignoring any and all federal judge's orders. Putin and Erdogan, 2 of Rump's fav dictators he sucks up to, have severe gun restrictions in their respective countries. How long before he imitates them? I could see this coming a long time ago and every MAGAt gun owner is an idiot. Trump's not your savior. He's your evil master.

[CDN_Merlin]

yep, there is a massive boycott US products here in Canada and I've seen Americans joining as well Europeans and even Australia. Soon companies will start asking for trump's head on a platter since they will be losing money because of his antics

[vision]

I'm inclined to not buy American products if they are the same price as imports. That money is just going to make someone rich who will fight against my best interests.

[CDN_Merlin]

I read on CNN today his popularity is going down.

[Tunnelcat]

Stay strong Canada. A lot of us are with you. Anyone with at least one brain cell doesn't like our demented little Shitler one little bit. The bastard is so petty, he renamed the Kennedy Center the Trump Center. He's also closed the Kennedy Library with funding cuts while leaving open the Nixon and Reagan Libraries. One Republican crook saving another Republican crook's legacy. ★■◆●! Oh, and he's cut staffing at the Bonneville Power Administration, which directly affects most of the Western States. I hope every MAGAt living in our western states suffers along with the rest of us when we get rolling blackouts. I'd tell Canada to shut off the power that they're sending to the Northeast, but Shitler would probably send our troops into Canada to restore it by force. Better beef up your military Canada. You'll probably need it.

Oh, and our malignant narcissist of a fake egomaniacal king actually posted this on the White House website during his tiff with New York over congestion traffic fees. I've never been so ashamed to be an American right now.

[CDN_Merlin]

yeah, there are no words to describe him. He's just retarded

[Tunnelcat]

I'm sorry. After watching that insulting circus in the Oval Office today, where Trump and Vance both betrated Zelinskyy like 2 petulant toddlers, I can confidently say I'm ashamed of the actions of our leaders and ashamed of our country. We are no longer a force for good in the world, but instead we're nothing but Putin's illegitimate butt child and a new supporter of autocratic and dictatorial states. Our democracy and our strong free world alliances are now dead. I hope MAGA loves being part of Russia, because Europe, Canada and all other freedom loving countries will now turn their backs on us and erect walls.

Trump couldn't even make a deal with Ukraine for rare earth mineral rights, let alone security protections for the one lone country who currently needs our help. Trump's staying true to form. An unhinged, malignant, narcissistic, idiot, loser businessman who fucks up every deal he tries to make. What am I saying. Foreign policy shouldn't even be a business deal in the ★■◆●ing first place.

Oh, and remember, absolute dictators don't want an armed populace and Trump/Bondi, on camera, have been the only leaders in our history that have even discussed about taking away people's firearms for various reasons. Mark my words, that will happen as an unhinged Trump seizes more and more control. His Gestapo will be lead by former convicted, jailed and pardoned Blackwater mercenaries, who will fill their ranks with Proud Boys and other ultra right Neo Nazi private militias. They'll be Trump's enforcers of HIS law and order in a country where more and more people are becoming poorer, losing their housing and health care services and becoming desparate. Inflation and crime will take off and cement our doom.

[CDN_Merlin]

I have no words to describe what I watched.

[Flatlander]

What a disgrace!

[Tunnelcat]

You know who had more balls in that room? Zelenskyy. Certainly not the other 2 toddlers and their playmates in the sullied Oval Office. And the whole thing was scripted, probably to make little weenie eyeliner wearing Vance look like a man in front of the nation. Instead, we got a hizzy fit pussy circus that embarrassed our country in front of the entire free world.

[TheWhat]

I haven't heard you say thank you.

Ya know, when I was a young whipersnapper the vice president was kind of a hahahoho joke of a position in the government. Why is this douchebag talking and why is he pointing out bad manners whilst iinterrupting someone trying to answer a question? Shutup boy.

[CDN_Merlin]

Can no one stops this idiot before be not only buries the US but also destroys other countries economies?

[Tunnelcat]

Oh, just wait until Monday when his hair brained tariffs go into effect. I won't be buying parts for either of my foreign cars in the near future either, unless something breaks, or any crap off of Amazon. And no, I'm not buying a POS American vehicle. We're going to get a repeat of the Republican Hoover Administration, another Great Depression and perhaps a World War thrown in for good measure. I'll take bets as to how long China waits before invading Taiwan too, because the U.S. has a habitual drunk running the Defense Department. Trump has already fired all the smart top military brass of color and gender to flesh that scenario out. There goes our computer chips if Taiwan goes ChiCom too. I hope woody's happy with the VA cuts.

[TigerRaptor]

But, but, but Tunnelcat, you can get a great deal on a new Jeep Grand Wagoneer shitbox right now after the dumbasses at Stellantis realize they went too far on the price. Instead of paying 90k, it's now 86k, and the people at Stellantis are still high as ★■◆● for a vehicle that is cheaply made.

Also, they need to keep Trump's pet monkey (Vance) in another room.

[Tunnelcat]

Very exceptional quality.



An older Toyota shows how it's done.



Ford. Found On the Road Dead. Beautiful engineering designs going on here. And someone explain to me why an entire oil pan needs to be replaced if the sealant fails?

[TigerRaptor]

The second video all comes down to tires and experience. The person in the 4th gen 4Runner is running BF Goodrich KO2, which do perform surprisingly well in the snow. Whoever is driving the Jeep could be running mud tires, which suck in snow, and probably got overconfident because it's a 4x4. As for Ford, I do hope they bounce back. I don't want to see this company fail.

I don't want to see this company fail.

Ford's been failing for a long time. Every recent Ford car I've driven was a POS. Anything with an Ecoboost engine is engineering junk. As for Jeep, Stellantis has royally messed up the brand. They can't even sell the Gladiator pickup and loads of them still sit on dealer lots. Prices are too high and their engines are also trash.

But not to worry, Toyota has joined the junk clan with the most recent Tundra catastrophic engine failures and the new Tacoma with transmissions that literally break. In fact, I hope I never need to buy a new car since most of them are over teched junk nightmares that take an engineer to repair. If you look under the hood of a new Land Cruiser, it's literally a rat's nest of wires. Somewhere under all that is an engine. And thanks to plastics being made from vegetable oils, the rats love to eat those wires.

But I degress. If you want to see real junk, the Cybertruck tops the list. It rusts in the rain, has wheel covers that chew the tire sidewalls, leaks water into the bed, has headlights that get covered in snow, looks like a trash dumpster, is a king's ransom to repair and can't negotiate anything that isn't flat as a pancake asphalt. I hope Musk's companies all go bankrupt while he plays at destroying a government he knows nothing about. In fact, I read somewhere that most of the government's computer systems still run on Cobol. I seriously doubt Musk's baby tech weenies know how to program in Cobol and these winners are firing those that do.

Meanwhile, SNL had a field day with the Trump/Vance spectacle.

[CDN_Merlin]

And the tariffs are a go. market tumbles. Price increases on almost everything. Not long before companies that support this moron tell him to quit his BS and start making them money again.

[TigerRaptor]

A part of me really wants to carry on with the car conversion, but I don't want to hijack this thread with two different topics.

[Tunnelcat]

And to top off the tariff stock market tumble, inflation is taking off again, GDP is now headed into great recession territory, if not Great Depression territory, and rich prick Musk is firing people in the Social Security Administration because he thinks it's a ★■◆●ing ponzi scheme. They won't be able to keep putting out people's payments because they'll be too understaffed to get the job done.

Plus, there's estimated to be 750,000 former federal employees looking for work now, so unemployment just shot up. So a Great Depression and a loss of Social Security. I'll be ruined and so will most senior Americans, who'll will be dumped into poverty, because the banks will also collapse, taking away any retirement savings and there won't be any Social Security income to rely on.

The Dems in Congress are sitting on their hands while Republicans cheer on Trump, or are too afraid of his goon militias to speak out. Hakeem Jeffries keeps telling people to stop protesting. Just the ★■◆● WHY? MAGAts are deliberately steering the ship into the iceberg and enjoying it and you're telling us to sit and watch??? Well, ★■◆● the Dems and FAFO ★■◆●. None of this had to go down at all, but youre going for the ride the rest of are taking and it's only going one way, down to the bottom. Goodbye U.S.A. RIP. If I had a passport, I'd move to Canada.

I'm going to be visiting my dad for his birthday soon. It'll probably be the last trip I take because I'm going to stay close to home as things tank. My ★■◆●ing sister is going to be there, whom I haven't spoken to since the election. I'm so pissed off right now, I might just ★■◆●ing ring her ★■◆●ing Evangelical MAGA neck for the pure hell of it. ★■◆●.

[CDN_Merlin]

It will be major depression for both our countries.

[Tunnelcat]

Ontario is threatening to cut off power to customers in Minnesota, Michigan and New York. Since the Mango Mussolini has already screwed up the Bonneville Power Administration here and we'll have to deal with the consequences in the near future, I hope Ford backs up his threat with action. It's time for MAGA to feel some real pain. Canada could potentially shut off that oil pipeline too, although that would be a little more difficult and harder to do, but boy would that hurt Americans where is counts. Make no mistake, installing tariffs is an act of war against our allies. Go ahead Canada. Screw us over six ways from tomorrow. I hope Mexico charges $10 apiece for avocados too because my sister loves them.

[CDN_Merlin]

Yeah, I live in Ontario and I really hope Ford cuts the power and Alberta stops the oil. Trump needs to learn the lesson the hard way it seems.

[Krom]

MAGA would still somehow blame it on democrats/the left. "They are being mean and cut off our Oil/Electricity!"

[CDN_Merlin]

Yep, I agree. I just read the Doug Ford will not reduce the tariffs even if trump cuts them for certain sectors like cars. Yeah because he was told it would hur the US a lot. He's a moron who doesn't understand how things work.

[Tunnelcat]

Doug Ford just put a 25% surcharge on power to MN, Michigan and New York. Ouch. Next step, shut it off completely if Trump keeps up his with on again, off again tariff BS.

[CDN_Merlin]

Trump said Ontario isn't allow to do that? HAHAHAHAHA and he's allowed to do whatever he wants? F*CK DONALD!!!!

Markets are crashing. Recession is happening and he continues to say "small bumP' but it will make everyone rich again. NO. it will not. It will simply make the rich richer and the poorer poorer.

[Tunnelcat]

Beware Canada. Trump is going batshit crazy and doubling down on import tariffs on aluminum and steel from Canada. Rumors are now flying that he plans on invading Canada. Your PM better mobilize your troops and be ready and I'm not joking. The Pumpkin Spice Palpatine is having a full blown crazy meltdown. If he actually does this, Republicans better start thinking about using the 25th Amendment to save both our countries or we're all screwed.

[CDN_Merlin]

If he attacks, that means all NATO countries come to our defense. You really need to get him out before HE starts WW3

[Tunnelcat]

Tell me about it. He won't be gone until after he crashes the entire world economy and gets us into shooting wars with our own former trading allies. I'd join the side of Canada by the way. I refuse to be a citizen of a Fascist, Christian Nationalist, hetero male dominant white trash, Neo Nazi country where only the white rich can afford food, clean water and actual healthcare. Trump will destroy the economy and I'll be penniless anyway, so I don't care. I will fight. I say lets expand Canada southward instead and make Canada BIGGER. Trump can have the Southern brain dead cultist MAGAt states since they now worship him as a weird new found religious Savior. Anyone in the new Canadian territories who don't like it can MOVE south and join the MAGA infested Red, White and Blue Stupidville States.

[Tunnelcat]

So, our president just did something illegal. He made a car commercial for Tesla on the White House lawn. He said he'd purchase one too. LOL! The bastard hasn't driven a car in decades, if ever. Then he goes on to say it's illegal to boycott poor little Tesla. I guess he just doesn't like that inconvenient First Amendment.

https://futurism.com/trump-illegal-boycott-tesla

Oh, and Trump before he became butt buddies with Musk and his swasticars. He loved gasoline.

[CDN_Merlin]

He's off his rocker. It's insane the amount of ★■◆● he's spewing and that so many believe it. This has bene stressing me out since it started. I work for the Federal Govt here which owns the CDN Embassies around the world and it's insane the amount of extra work this is producing and stress it's creating.

[Krom]

Work with and encourage all your other allies to just cut America out for the next four years. MAGA went to the ballot box and ordered ★■◆● soup, now make them eat it, ★■◆● them.

I can most likely weather the storm so I don't care anymore. Most of the real harm will come down on exactly the kind of low information MAGA voters that supported Trump in the first place. Ultimately the main changes I expect in the long run are the wealthy educated blue cities/states will pool more wealth even faster while the poor/uneducated red rural areas will bleed more wealth even faster.

[Tunnelcat]

I guess I might become illegal in Texas. ★■◆●ing pathetic morons.

Jesus ★■◆●ing christ. Enough if enough. I also read about his remark that annexing Greenland will happen and he'll use military force if required. This is a direct violation to International law. And he's also said he'd Annex Canada. And some people think he's not the next Putin/Hitler?

[CDN_Merlin]

Please, someone do something. This moron will become the 21st century equivalent to Hitler, Attila, Gangis Khan and Putin all in one.

[Tunnelcat]

You and me both. What's sick is a lot of the die hard MAGAts love what the Mango Musselini is doing, especially if it screws the left and even if it hurts them. But we're seriously staring at a Constitional crisis because he's ignoring court orders to cease and desist with his illegal deportations right and left. He's also claiming Biden's pardons are null and void because he used an electric "autopen" to sign, so now he can sick his DOJ and FBI on Biden and his family. Our economy is going down the toilet and he's focusing on vengeance? If that's not the definition of a crazy and mentally ill condition worthy of enforced removal via the 25 Amendment, I don't know what is.

I heard Canada wants to stop the U.S. from accessing Alaska via land. Good. Do it! Block your airspace from American use as well. There need to be more Americans inconvenienced and pissed off to get this bastard removed from office, either by impeachment, or the 25th Amendment, or else civil war. We just can't wait for lard ass to have a fatal coronary to save the world.

[Tunnelcat]

Uh, oh. The first sign from Trump's DOJ, specifically Pam Bondi, that they're not going to be oh so friendly with regards to an unfettered 2nd Amendment, and this is just over silencers. The MAGA wall may begin to crack. We shall see.
