Well, we all know Trump’s ‘border crisis’ is a fabrication. Just as it has been at their Southern border.
Trump just needs there to be some kind of ‘crisis’ in order to leverage people’s fears to drive his agenda, and it turns out that racism plays well with his base.

We’ve just committed $1.3B to address a made-up problem, based on the impulsive musings of a compulsive liar.
I can just see the convicted felon bragging to his crony pals about how when he says ‘jump’ Canada asks ‘how high?’.
And he’ll slap us with tariffs anyhow, because it was never about the border.

@Crispius @stephanie @chris I wonder if that's why Chrystia Freeland said "fuck this". Because as a key negotiator in the previous trade deal (that fucked us on copyright) she knows...
Courage isn't an attribute of our class of politicians

PP is campaigning to become Obergruppenführer under the new reich.
