The rest is an assault on the natural world.

He's out to cripple Canada's economy, then he'll attempt to invade it. True evil.
Trump doesn't like that the US buys lumber from Canada. He's going to announce 34% tariffs on lumber from Canada in the next few days.
They have at different points in history. Maybe we're due.
Jobst was pleading for donations to help fight the lawsuit for a long time. Constantly making videos about it to get more viewers, sympathy and money. All to then run his mouth costing him the case.
Edit: Turns out Jobst was running his mouth the whole time. With so much donated money on the line, it was important to communicate the details of the case accurately but Jobst failed to do so. He made a lot content about it (monetized and sponsored) but was too arrogant about his chances of winning. IMO not as serious, careful or tactful as he should have been throughout.
Edit x2: Monday-morning lawyering from me but I stopped watching Jobst a long time ago because I just wasn't on board.
Also, why do they get to talk like that when they're threatening their owm neighbours and former allies.
Yes!
I feel it comes down to money as always. The modern world works on markets, not nationalism.
It's why these ideas get floated around without consequence. Business just ignores the ideas it till it impacts the bottom line. Then they make whatever changes are best for them, very seldom are the changes made for principles or morals.
The US knows this. They attack Canada without declaring war to convince businesses to invest in the US instead of Canada. It works for the most part, tragically.
"Everybody hated the Nazis but not enough had a problem doing business with them though."
Edit: Canada will be alright. We're bringing down interprovincial trade batriers. It'll help gets projects done all across the country. Out word is gold as well. We keep our promises, unlike the US who don't realise how destructive breaking all their agreements really is. It makes sense to invest in Canada. We just have to show that to the rest of the world.
I hate the ones that say "Claps back at..."
Merch in general for me.
It is so he can look like he was putting up a fight.
