An ill wind

Why can't we get a real leader like Canada has?

...if you're Donald Trump.

By a margin of 57% to 37% (basically the republican base), Americans trust Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau over Donald Trump when it comes to the current trade situation between our two nations.

There's plenty of news these days that eating up the headlines (some of rightfully so, especially our very own Auschwitz-like separating of parents and children as championed by the Trump Administration and enabled by Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell), but I'm not sure people realize how big of a deal this is:  sixty percent of Americans trust a leader of another nation more than our own leader to look out for our best interests economically.  At a time when our economy is relatively strong, only republicans are sticking with Trump.  He has lost the trust of everyone else.

While I would never discount the chance of Trump winning re-election in 2020 (especially after the debacle of 2016), I'd certainly think this would put at least a couple of nails in its coffin.

Fuck Donald Trump,
