Trained in stupid

An American reader asks: “Is Trump trying to get Trudeau re-elected?” …

Or perhaps he has his gunsights on Mark Carney, the proposed replacement, who has been, if possible, more irritating as the eco-socialist bank governor of both Canada and the United Kingdom. For Carney would be a good candidate for the most disastrous prime minister of Canada, a position Trudeau currently holds.

A suddenly revived Liberal government, thanks to Trump’s (easily justified) tariffs on us — itself the retaliation for decades of Canadian trade abuse — might be in the devil’s cards.

I don’t think that is Trump’s central intention, however. …

But Canadian media have suppressed knowledge of why Trump might be doing what he is doing; & we have an incurious population, that has been trained in stupid for more than half a century.
