THIS IS HILARIOUS: Republicans are losing their minds over the Buffalo Bills playing the Canadian national anthem, and it says everything about where their priorities are.
The Bills opened their brand new $2.2 billion Highmark Stadium Thursday night against the Detroit Lions, and ahead of kickoff, Toronto based band Barenaked Ladies performed O Canada, followed by Auliʻi Cravalho performing the Star Spangled Banner.
It wasn't a political statement. It was a thank you.
Canadians make up a massive part of the Bills fan base. As of last year, Canadians held 8,000 season tickets, and 18 percent of the new stadium's personal seat license deposits came from Canadian fans who cross the border to cheer on their team.
The Bills have also long played O Canada before Sabres hockey games in Buffalo, given the city sits about two hours from Toronto.
But because this happened while Trump and Canada are locked in a tariff standoff, some Republicans and fans online treated a pregame tribute like a national crisis.
Here's the thing.
Canada is one of America's closest allies and closest neighbors. Buffalo fans just showed more gratitude and grace toward their Canadian supporters in one night than certain politicians have shown in months of tariff threats.
Canada is our friend, no matter what Trump says

It’s day 462 Mr Pigland, hopefully today

Some say Hoosier 'HAS' to change the dates. If they are smart, since handle is inconsequential for
them, more or less, just stick to their guns and just see where the top 3yo trotters will race. Let Jeffie
eat his $1M with 2nd tier horses. Why wouldn't he commit to multiple years? Hambletonian Society
didn't want it to move BUT they wanted that commitment. Jeffie bluffed and lost. Now he's pouting.
As I've said before: Those that say he LOVES harness racing are very misguided. Did what he's done,
for the same reason he does everything. Attention, $$$, Power. He's not bluffing anymore. He's tipped
his hand. It's ALL about him.

sad bo never got mentioned

The degree from Wharton has really paid off.
This isn’t the first time Trump’s made this argument.
On September 4 in the Oval Office the version was longer: "We lose with Mexico $195 billion a year. If I don't trade with Mexico, they have nothing that we have to have. I mean, hot tamales? Tomatoes?"
Wrong. And also racist.
Here's what a trade deficit is: the difference between what Americans bought from a country and what that country bought from us.
It's not a bill. It's a receipt.
The $195 billion "lost" to Mexico is cars, engines, produce, and the parts that keep Texas factories running — things Americans paid for because they wanted and/or needed them.
Ending trade means not having the goods. I can’t believe I have to write that out.
That's the whole lesson, and it's one he's been failing since 2019, when he told TIME "we were losing $2 trillion a year on trade."
Here’s why he's saying it now: the trade deficit hit $88.6 billion in July, the highest since March 2025, and he's using embargo threats to pressure the Fed into a rate cut — "LOWER THE RATE OR I'LL STOP TRADING WITH COUNTRIES WITH WHICH WE HAVE A DEFICIT."
The Supreme Court struck down his emergency tariffs in February. So Plan B is simploy not buying things.
He also put a 50% tariff on Brazil last year citing "unsustainable Trade Deficits" — with a country the U.S. has run a surplus with since 2007.
It's very simple. The president is an idiot.



I'd rather have a degree from Wharton School as opposed to the one you have from
