It’s Tuesday…
Shitshow’s public schedule for…
Oh Canada Part Deux
Puddle is currently melting down on Lies Social. Likely in response to Canada giving no fucks about his feels on the trade war Puddle started.
His meltdown started at 6:58 a.m. D.C. time.
From there, he weaved to his war of choice with Iran.
Back he goes to Canada…
He took a social media break. When he returned, things got weird.
*flashback*
Nine days ago…
*End Flashback*
I asked ChatGPT to compare the two images. Here’s what changed…
Nine days ago: “the United States has, long ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military Exercises with South Korea.”
- Today: “the United States had, long ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military Exercises with South Korea.”
Nine days ago: “based on the fact that it is too late to cancel, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to substantially reduce the Joint Military Exercises!”
- Today: “based on the fact that it was too late to cancel, I instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to substantially reduce the Joint Military Exercises!”
Minutes later Puddle pivots back to Canada.
He stuck with Canada…
Still on Oh Canada…
Daniel Dale from CNN posted a fact-check so I didn’t have too.
The sheer number of lies from President Trump about Canada – growing again today – is remarkable. Just some fact checks from the last 18 months:

The Tweet Text: The sheer number of lies from President Trump about Canada – growing again today – is remarkable. Just some fact checks from the last 18 months:
- Trump falsely said today that Canada’s unemployment rate is “10% and rapidly rising,” though it is 6.4% (under the Canadian method that adds about a percentage point) and has been declining for three months
- Trump falsely said today that Canada does 95% of its business with the US, though 72% of Canadian exports went to the US last year
- Trump falsely said today that high Canadian agricultural tariffs have caused the entire US trade deficit with Canada, though that deficit is overwhelmingly caused by US imports of cheap Canadian crude and though something like 97% of US ag exports to Canada are tariff-free
- Trump has falsely said Canada generally doesn’t “take” US agricultural exports, though Canada is the world’s second-biggest buyer of those exports
- Trump has falsely said the Canadian public likes the idea of becoming the 51st state, which the Canadian public overwhelmingly opposes
- Trump has falsely said Canada is one of the world’s highest-tariff countries, though it is actually low in WTO global rankings
- Trump has falsely said Canada essentially doesn’t have a military, though its military has fought with the US in multiple wars and its force size ranks in the upper half of NATO
- Trump has falsely said Canada hiked its dairy tariffs during the Biden administration, though they hadn’t changed since Trump’s first presidency
- Trump has falsely said the US trade deficit with Canada is “$200 billion,” though it is nowhere close
- Trump has falsely said Canada prohibits US banks, though it doesn’t and though more than a dozen US banks were operating in Canada at the time he spoke
- Trump has falsely said Canada is “constantly surrounded” by Chinese and Russian ships, though that is fiction
- Trump has falsely said then-outgoing PM Trudeau was using their trade battle to run again for prime minister, though Trudeau obviously wasn’t running
I also saw this one…
Trump post yesterday morning: “WE DON’T NEED CANADA, THEY NEED US!”
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) August 25, 2026
Trump in a tele-rally yesterday evening: “You know, selfishly, we need aluminum in this country. We don't have it. We get it all from Canada, for the most part, and we need it badly.”

Puddle:
The country’s never been stronger. We have $19.2 trillion being invested in the country. And by the way, and, you know, I, I will tell you that I’m fully aware of the Oklahoma primary aluminum plant. And I can say this, this country desperately needs aluminum. I know the people that are behind that plant, they’re unlimited wealth.
They will do an unbelievable job. They’re very excited about it. And it’ll be a tremendous job producer. It’ll reduce your taxes because they’ll pay a lot of taxes and getting very little relative to, uh, you know, what they’re, what they’re doing. And they have every State of the Union practically that would like to get them.
So, uh, I, I’m not speaking for Mike or anybody else. I’m just giving a plug for that because I know the people and they are, uh, very fine people with unlimited money that will do the right job. And it’ll be a lot of jobs and a lot of taxes. And, you know, selfishly, we need aluminum in this country. We don’t have it. We get it all from Canada, for the most part, and we need it badly.

About that Oklahoma primary aluminum plant…
Department of Energy (02/10/2026):
U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright today joined executives of Century Aluminum to celebrate progress toward constructing a primary aluminum smelter in Inola, Oklahoma—a project supported through a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
“Today, I was honored to meet with the team that will be delivering America’s first new aluminum smelter of the 21st century,” said Secretary Wright. “This project could not have been realized without President Trump’s commitment to revitalizing this country’s manufacturing base and reducing our reliance on foreign suppliers. Century Aluminum’s joint venture shows how President Trump’s economic policies are encouraging global companies to partner with U.S. firms, build here in America, and create good-paying American jobs.”
Once complete, the plant will be the largest-ever primary aluminum production plant in the U.S., with the potential to produce over 500,000 tons of high-quality, primary aluminum per year—including approximately 20,000 tons of high-purity aluminum suitable for national defense applications. On January 26, 2026, Century announced plans to jointly develop the plant with Emirates Global Aluminum (EGA). EGA’s investment to help develop this multi-billion-dollar smelter project in Oklahoma was secured by President Trump as part of the strategic partnership announced between the United Arab Emirates and the United States in Abu Dhabi on May 15, 2025.
In 2025, DOE’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) awarded $500 million to advance construction of the first new primary aluminum smelter in the United States since 1980. This project demonstrates the economic viability of domestic smelting and reduces dependence on foreign imports. In 2024, the United States imported 5.46 million metric tons and exported 3 million metric tons of downstream aluminum products and scrap, resulting in net imports of 2.46 million metric tons. There are currently four primary aluminum smelters operating in the United States that produce 683,500 metric tons, down from America’s historical ranking as the world’s leading producer when 33 sites were in operation producing up to 5 million tons per year. President Trump is ending this dangerous trend and re-shoring manufacturing by safeguarding and expanding our Nation’s domestic production of critical minerals and materials through tariffs and other trade policies, which have made investments like this in American projects possible.
Department of Energy (02/10/2026).
The new plant is expected to be operational at the end of the decade. According to Canary Media from April 2026.
The energy-hungry facility will be America’s first new smelter since 1980, and it will more than double the nation’s capacity for making primary aluminum. The companies say they expect to start construction in late 2026 and begin producing metal by the end of the decade.

The rest of his meltdown…
Opinion piece posted on 07/02/2026.
He will never get over the Supremes siding with the Constitution instead of siding with him.
Another “news” piece from 07/16/2026.
He pivots to the midterms.
He pivots to pointing out what a terrible father Sean Duffy is or plays on “TV”.
Here’s the clip. If you click it. Pay attention to his daughters face.
What’s wild is when she likely goes no contact her parents will ask out loud “I have no idea what I did”…
Puddle is gonna rescue California drivers…
Dear Bruce,
As a California resident that grew up in the valley from 1974 to present day. I remember smog days. I remember kids missing school because the asthma the air in California caused them landed them in the hospital.
I don’t want or need Puddle’s and his clowncar admin fucking with something we’ve worked very hard to change.
Signed,
Fuck you.
AI is great…
Narrator:
Article from 08/21/2026. It’s debatable if it’s the best thing he ever did. It’s also a lie that the money is “free” money. It’s not free it’s mostly our tax dollars that start as seed money.
S&P Global.
Also from the 21st of August.
He posted a video of himself talking up data centers…
Ballroom nonsense.
Economic D-Day that wasn’t posts…
For what it’s worth. When I started the journey to share his Tuesday meltdown, he only had like 5 posts. He added the article links and such in minutes and I just decided time be damned I’d see this one through.
