Do we have any "Friends" left?

It was always in Canadas best interests to maintain a strong economic and military alliance with the US

It no longer is
They are better served aligning with the EU

If the EU would have them.... Right now the EU is running on broke and looking for income streams.. They had their hot set on the massive store of wealth in the English retirement system.
England said no.

Oh yeah, let them decouple from America's protection...I'm sure that'll work just fine for them.....lol

idiot.

Considering how Canada threatened to put tariffs on American citizens, how friendly are they really?

They haven't even taken all of the celebrities that promised to immigrate to Canada after the election last fall

Truth is they're really not.....Just look at a prime example in here....Dragonlady....She's a real gem isn't she?

 

[rightwinger]

Has Trump been held in contempt of any of our allies like xiden was? No?

And the fact you hate yourself and America isn’t trump fault

Biden worked well with our allies and strengthened our bonds
When Russia invaded Ukraine, Biden got our allies to invoke strong sanctions on Russia and provide military aid.
Putin expected the EU to give in to Russian oil rather than support Ukraine. Biden proved him wrong

There are no countries that would accept Trump in a leadership role or trust his assurances

Nobody is threatening to invade Canada
However NORAD relies on Canadian bases to provide early warning of incoming Russian missiles

Bullshit.

My international FB friends are really impressed with Trump and see him as a tremendous leader.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Friends do not rape you when you sleep with no Vaseline.... Now if they want to cooperate with us on our border security maybe we can start calling them friends again.

WTF?

So.... Trump's "tremendous" trade deals with China, Mexico and Canada were SO great, that now he wants tariffs on the very countries, he negotiated with years ago?
What happened?

Xiden was held in contempt of the u tied kingdom

After his Afghan surrendered our allies no longer trusted him.

He was a CCP puppet, owned by the cartels and terrorist

We no longer came from a position of strength

Canada has tariffs on American goods, despite the free trade agreement we've with them

Other countries respected Biden’s leadership and accepted his assurances of economic support after Russia cut of oil supplies.
No country would respect Trumps assurances
No country would provide troops to support Trump

That is what your isolationism brings you

There wouldn't have been a war between Ukraine and Russia if Biden hadn't seized power in 2021

Let's see, Trump has now threatened to impose tariffs on Canada, Mexico and the EU, he has threated to attack Panama and buy Greenland, and he has caused us to hate each other (enemies within) due to politics.

Further complicating deliveries was a chaotic weapons-tracking system in which different branches of the U.S. military reportedly used varying definitions of "delivered," creating confusion over how much aid reached Ukraine.

Dishonour, fear and chaos is what are allies thought of Xiden.

You have no friends

Next question

As for the US, $40 trillion in debt and climbing as the US continues to be taken advantage of around the world economically, people dying of drug overdoses by about 400 Americans a day, and inflation crushing the economy, friends did the US a lot of good, didn't it?

With friends like that, who needs enemies?

 

[luiza]

We don’t need friends. We need countries that respect us rather than laugh at us - as they did throughout Dementia’s presidency.

Exactly right .

Only very unbalanced individuals would take issue with that aim .
Unfortunately some Extremist Lefty Mutants are more than unbalanced, as we both can see from posts in this thread .

Talking about friends of America. Presidente Bukele has offered to house convicts from America of any nationality in CECOT, his nation's new super-prison.

Of course, the US government would have to pay a fee, but it would be a saving to the US and a positive for El Salvadorian taxpayers.

Plenty of room for more miscreants in CECOT.

I don't think this would be happening if Biden-Harris had stayed in power in America.

If you are always paying more than your friend and always caring more about what they think despite the fact that you put more of your time, effort, and money into the relationship than they do, how good a “friend” are they?

Yeah, the Brits thought that way at one time and looked what happened to them and the EU.
