I mean, when you think about it, who is John Galt?

He's all of us man.

Isolationism, protectionism, increased tariffs, all can have massive consequence for Canada under a Trump regime, in opposition to the likely "business as usual" we would see under Clinton.

But no, #### Canada right.

This article would be pretty relevant for our BC friends:

I do give a #### about Canada, that's why it's sad seeing everything being sold to China. Why is a nations rights to self-determination a bad thing to you? So you fully support globalization? It's not good for most Canadians.

Well for one thing, Canada doesn't have the resources or infrastructure to support ourselves wholly.

Selbstbestimmungsrecht der Völker is so overrated.

Yep, big military, big border patrol, big correctional facilities, big wall, big debt.
But let's not pay for any of it with a tax raise.

Whoops. See that's the definitive word that shows you are a Trump supporter. Only Trump supporters use this as a major negative. Even Gary Johnson believes in free trade.

So sell it all to foreigners, sounds great.

Reading through the actual thread since you started posting in here might help you.

Nice to see insulting people in the name of "reasonable discussion" is still your schtick. I would "really hate it" if there was a day when you could stop doing that.

Peter12 made an absolutely, completely ridiculous comparison and deservedly got flack for it.

Hillary Clinton meeting with Nicki Minaj is not in any remote way comparable to Trump bragging about getting away with sexual assault. The quoted part was particularly ridiculous, because in that part Minaj is talking about her _own_ p****.

In case you and peter have trouble comprehending this, there's a difference between grabbing your own p**** and grabbing some else's.

That was a joke.

I don't know why why peter12 is so desperate for some equivalency that he has to pretend that he doesn't see how Clinton meeting with Minaj is in not even in the same universe as what Trump said. It's obvious he can't actually believe what he's saying, because he's not a total idiot. The real reason for such behavior is up for anyone to guess. The most obvious guess is that he's upset about the way the election is going. It might not be the right reason, but it's also pretty much the only possible explanation I can think of. You shouldn't blame people for obvious assumptions.

People have pointed out sympathy for Trump and not gotten attacked for it, when they have a point.

When they're being absolutely ridiculous they get flack. As they should.

In general if you get flack on this board, it's better to start with introspection, because usually there's a good reason. I get attacked for being a condescending a-hole, quite deservedly. Blaming others for their reaction to you being stupid or offensive is childish.

Those are Trumps policies, all of them, expand the military, massive increase in border agents in order to deport 11 million, get tough on crime, build wall, lower taxes.

I realize Trumps 'policies' are laughable but if your going to advocate on his behalf it be hooves you too at least recognize them.

How many times do I have to say it? I'll try in all caps this time for you.

I'M NOT A TRUMP SUPPORTER, I'M ANTI-HILLARY. WHAT IS SO HARD TO COMPUTE ABOUT MY POSITION FOR YA? DID THE LEFTIST MEDIA NOT BEAT IT INTO YOUR HEAD, SO YOU DON'T THINK IT'S AN OPTION.

No, you hope Trump wins because you love his policies, and hope that a Canadian Trump (please God not Kevin O'Leary) that will swoop in and do the same.

Not triggered enough to go find some phantom facebook account that supports my witch hunt. At least try to have some fun while fishing.
