Why Other Countries Dread a Republican Presidency

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Thanks to Brexit, Britain suddenly needs to negotiate a whole lot of new trade deals. But for decades it's relied on the EU to negotiate trade deals, and those folks will be on the opposite of the table.

Canada has recently negotiated CETA, the TPP, WTO deals and a dozen other free trade deals. So experienced Canadian trade negotiators have set up class in Britain to teach their inexperienced counterparts.
CETA - the Canada/EU trade deal - comes into force today.

I suppose we brought this on ourselves. Donald Trump is our fault.

Canada: Our crazy immature right-wing populist Toronto mayor Rob Ford's antics have all the press talking about him non-stop. Even the Daily Show can't get enough of him.

America: A mayor?

America: Hold my beer....
Movie coming. In a nod to POSPOTUS, there's already a sexism controversy.

Why isn't Robyn Doolittle in the Rob Ford movie?
