<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A short time ago, I mentioned in one of my articles that the voter is always right. I still believe that, as for me, it is a basic tenet of democracy. However, a friend of mine challenged me on that statement referring to the election, once again, of United States President Donald Trump. She believed the electorate was dead wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought about that last week as I watched news clips of a Cabinet meeting in the White House where Trump Cabinet members were gushing over him shamelessly, each trying to outdo the other in feeding his ego and telling him how great he is. Trump, of course, soaked it up like a wet sponge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it was sickening. It reminded me of what a Cabinet meeting might look like in North Korea, where you either heap praise on the \u201cDear Leader\u201d or suffer the consequences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also made me think about how different the American process is from that of Canada, where Cabinet meetings are all about getting down to real business and generally keeping egos outside of the room.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I have said previously, I understand why Americans voted for Donald Trump. Many of them were fed up with the Biden Administration and the domination of left-wing politics. They wanted someone who would deal harshly with illegal immigrants. They were fed up with the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath and they wanted someone who would address many of the perceived problems they believed existed in America. They believed, in spite of his notoriety, that Donald Trump was their man. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I wonder what many of those voters think now after watching their man over the last four months. He is addressing some of the issues like illegal immigration but in a manner and at a warp speed that few expected. But at what cost?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many of his voters expected Donald Trump to launch an international Trade War that would threaten the United States’ own economy or attack the sovereignty of Panama, Greenland, and America\u2019s closest neighbour, Canada?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many people seriously expected Trump to increase the power of the presidency to the point that referring to him as a dictator is not too far off the mark? If Donald Trump can boot people out of the country without due process, how long will it be before he thinks he can do that, or worse, to anyone he doesn\u2019t like? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then you have the issue of his disdain for the judicial system when it doesn\u2019t rule in Trump\u2019s  favour. He says he believes in the rule of law and then he says he doesn\u2019t have to listen to judicial rulings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

United States Chief Justice John Roberts, a Republican appointee (although not by Trump) had something to say about that. He said that the judiciary and the Supreme Court should be checking Trump as it relates to executive powers. Thank God he believes that, but the real question is whether he can convince the alt-right justices appointed to the Supreme Court by Donald Trump to put the law and the Constitution ahead of their subservience to the president.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real danger of Donald Trump, in my view (in part from seeing him up close), is that at his core, he believes there is nothing or no one who is greater than himself. He believes he cannot fail, and that is why he continues to insist that he did not lose the 2020 election when the entire world knows that he did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Trump\u2019s eyes, the military parade he is planning to mark the 250th<\/sup> anniversary of the United States Army is as much a tribute to him and the power he believes he holds as it is to anything else. I question whether it is a coincidence that the parade will be held on the Dear Leader\u2019s birthday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump cares little about reality if it differs from what he wants to do. He has no problem saying one thing on the first day, and something completely different on the second. He makes things up to suit whatever narrative he is expounding on at the moment. He actually believes that the tariffs he is forcing on countries around the world, including Canada, will benefit America when almost every economist, including those in the United States who are not tied to Trump\u2019s apron strings, are saying the opposite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At one point, Donald Trump made comments about how he would make a good Pope. He seldom says something, even in jest, that he doesn\u2019t also believe, and that was underlined by the White House releasing a picture of Trump dressed as the Pope. Trump\u2019s ego has no limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malcolm Gladwell is a well-known Canadian Journalist and author of eight best-selling books. He has also been a staff writer for the New Yorker since 1996. In a recent article about Donald Trump, he said this: \u201cWhen your own allies start treating you like an unpredictable liability, it is time to ask who the real problem is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is against this unbalanced Goliath that Canada now faces at very close quarters. Threats to our sovereignty are made by Trump almost daily. I wonder whether he forgets that Canada is the largest foreign supplier of oil to the United States or if he just wants to take it? Does he realize, as Malcolm Gladwell reports, that Canada is the 6th<\/sup> largest foreign holder of American debt, or does he just want to wipe that out? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prime Minister Mark Carney made a good start this past week when he met with President Trump. He held his own and in a non-combative and sometimes humerous manner, made it crystal clear that Canada\u2019s sovereignty would never be on the table. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, the Prime Minister has a huge job ahead of him in effectively dealing with the Trump Administration in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canadian prime ministers and American presidents have not always agreed and, at times, have had to butt heads. But this time, it is different. No prime minister has had to deal with an American president like Donald Trump, who must always win, whose word cannot be counted on, who is an expert at using the bully pulpit to get what he wants, and who has visions of annexing Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark Carney has his work cut out for him and in many respects, he is David to Trump\u2019s Goliath.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malcolm Gladwell points out that Goliath lost the fight (to David) not because he was weak but because he underestimated his opponent’s strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump underestimates the strength and determination of Canadians and job number one for Mark Carney is to do whatever is necessary to make that abundantly clear to the President of the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malcolm Gladwell ends his article by saying, \u201cWhen the dust settles, guess who is going to come out stronger? It is not the guy who is swinging wildly and blaming everyone else. It\u2019s the one who played forward, made smart moves and kept their eye on the real prize. David wins every time. \u201c <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can only hope that Gladwell is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
