The admin is showing no sign of backing down. In a social media post referring to #Canada’s ties with Beijing, #Trump said #China “will eat them up.” And the #Pentagon released a defense strategy late Friday telling allies to handle their own security.

Trump administration's defense strategy tells allies to handle their own security

The Pentagon has released a National Defense Strategy that chastises U.S. allies to take control of their own security and reasserts the Trump administration’s focus on dominance in the Western Hemisphere over a longtime goal of countering China.

…His tactics have raised fears that #Trump is imposing long-term damage on the US standing in the world & encouraging countries to rethink their #alliances & deepen their ties with #China. #Carney already traveled there earlier this month to meet with President #Xi Jinping.

#Carney, however, was unbowed, speaking of #Canada as “an example to a world at sea” as he crafted a potential template for other world leaders navigating a new era.

“We can show that another way is possible, that the arc of history isn’t destined to be warped toward #authoritarianism & #exclusion,” he said in a speech before a cabinet retreat in Quebec City.

“We should not allow the rise of hard powers to blind us to the fact that the #power of #legitimacy, #integrity, & #rules will remain strong — if we choose to wield it together,” #Carney added.

#Trump did not take kindly to those remarks of unity & dignity, responding with #threats in Davos before yanking the “Board of Peace” invitation.

“ #Canada lives because of the #UnitedStates. Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements,”Trump said.

#Carney is quickly emerging as a leader of a movement for countries to find ways to link up & counter the #US. Speaking in Davos ahead of #Trump, Carney said, “Middle powers must act together because if you are not at the table, you are on the menu.”
“In a world of great power rivalry, the countries in between have a choice: to compete with each other for favor or to combine to create a third path with impact,” he continued.

But for Trump's Treasury Secretary, it's unfair to quote Trump's words

"Trump himself has told us what’s going on: he’s throwing a temper tantrum over not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize — not how he put it, but that was the gist of his text to Norway’s prime minister. And there’s no reason to disbelieve him, even though Scott Bessent says that quoting Trump’s own words is a 'complete canard.'”

"Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him. Also, he really is maniacally, unhealthily obsessive about the Nobel Prize. The Norwegian Nobel Committee, not the Norwegian government and certainly not the Danish government, determines the winner of that prize."

"That’s an important question, the answer to which I believe lies in the straight line from Bush vs Gore and the Roberts Supreme Court, to January 6th, to the execution of Renee Good.
