  • Canadian policymakers were just beginning to recover from the shock of Donald Trump's recent threats to impose 25 per cent tariffs on Canada and Mexico when the president-elect detonated another rhetorical explosive.

The article from MSN discusses how former U.S. President Donald Trump's recent comments taunting Canada and its Prime Minister Justin Trudeau can be analyzed through the lens of psychoanalysis. Trump, known for his provocative and often confrontational style, has targeted Trudeau, referring to him disparagingly and criticizing Canada's policies. Experts suggest that Trump's behavior might stem from a need to assert dominance and project strength, especially in the face of perceived weakness or opposition. This behavior could be seen as a manifestation of narcissistic traits, where belittling others serves to elevate his own image. Furthermore, the article explores how such tactics are not only personal but also political, aiming to appeal to his voter base by portraying himself as a tough negotiator on the international stage. The analysis also touches on the broader implications of Trump's approach to international relations, suggesting it might reflect deeper psychological motivations and insecurities.
