Why are Trump's 51st state comments resonating so loudly in Canada? Because of Trudeau himself.
When Justin Trudeau first won election in 2015, he told an American newspaper:
‘‘There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada." He said we're "the first postnational state." Source:

Since then, he's taken our founding prime minister off the $10 bill; he's altered our national anthem; he's accused Canada of committing "genocide" against our Indigenous people (but he won't say that about China and the Uyghurs). He's removed historical symbols from our passport.
He regularly accuses Canadians of being racist and sexist, even as he dresses up in blackface, and sexually assaulted Rose Knight in Creston, B.C. (He said she just "experienced it differently"). Source:

He's devalued our citizenship, giving millions of foreigners unvetted access to Canada and saying we have lots to learn from returning ISIS terrorists. Source:
nitter.app/RealSaavedra/status/18… He's scrapped the citizenship test for new Canadians.
He's denuded our military to the point where we can't even participate in NATO war games because we lack modern equipment, but he can afford tampon dispensers in male bathrooms in military bases.
His veteran affairs department now recommends assisted suicide to vets with PTSD. Source:

I could go on.
In short, he has done everything to demoralize Canada, and to denature us.
That's why Trump's statements about becoming the 51st state sting. That's why they hit home.
Because for a decade, Trudeau and every institution in the country -- the regime media; the universities; the courts; the Parliament -- has said Canada means nothing.
Every one of Trudeau's actions says "Canada means nothing", it's really just a hotel.
Well, Trump knows about hotels. Why would't he try to buy one -- especially one that's so dilapidated?
