It was no coincidence that President-elect Trump has more than once referenced Prime Minister Trudeau as "Governor" and called Canada "The 51st State". 

Canadians are loyal to Canada, and lately, the support for Prime Minister Trudeau has never been at it's lowest level ever. Since dismissing his Finance Minister and over-hauling cabinet positions over the past week, there has been calls for him to resign.

Trump seized on the moment of weakness and continued to taunt him. To believe Trudeau and Trump are even remote friends would be close to delusional. Neither of them like each other; it's clear both have a vapid hatred for each other. But politics aside, not even Trudeau's plastic smile could do anything to defuse the rage of Trump.

For years, there was a simmering bitterness between the two leaders. The polish and gloss that Trudeau puts out there wasn't believable by Trump. He paid attention to the news and who said what about him. I wouldn't be surprised if he has someone recording world leaders comments to get a quick 'view' of what they think of him. We're willing to bet PM Trudeau didn't count on Trump winning the 2024 election.

And to be fair, Stone News Network actually had Kamela leading by a few points - clearly, we were dead wrong. 

And now, we get to watch what happens when world leaders are asleep at the wheel. As Trump seizes the power of the United States of America under his leadership, its going to ignite a lot of division within allies and news organizations. That cozy atmosphere between Fox News and Trump is just temporary. All it takes is one editorial or article about his leadership, and any complaint that is written will be the death stroke to that relationship.

This tit-for-tat leadership is to be expected. People around the President-elect are lunging for power, saying outlandish things. Trump goads them on, just to see how far they'll jump.

A golf clap and well wishes to the President elect. We will be watching the developments of the new government & have an interesting bit of insight on how Trump operates.

It should be interesting indeed.
