U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra on Tuesday shared a screenshot of Trump’s social media post where he revived his jabs at Canada as the ‘51st state.’

    No need to interrupt your enemy while they make mistakes. Just let the US continue to make fools of itself while the government and populace divests further.

        I wish people would stop assuming Trump is going to die soon. This mess is going to go on and on and on for probably decades

          It’s inevitable. I know things will not change that much but it will slow things down for a bit and aside from the politics I can celebrate just cause he is not a nice human.

          Why are you assuming that the MAGA people will listen to someone else? They haven’t listened to anyone else in 15 years.

    Is this a case of better the enemy we know than the enemy we do not? I think Canadian officials know how to handle Hoekstra. He used to be the ambassador to The Netherlands and did the same type of talk back in that job too. I am sure the Canadian officials have talked to the Dutch too.

    I wonder if he fears for his life amid all the pro USA talk he’s been doing. It really doesn’t seem worth the destruction of the Liberal Party.
