Chrystia Freeland served more than a decade in Canadian politics with roles spanning deputy prime minister to foreign minister to minister of finance. She also handled tasks including brokering trade agreements alongside leaders in Washington during President Trump’s first term. Now, the bestselling author and award-winning journalist-turned-political leader is out with a candid new book about her time in office, titled “Unreliable Boyfriend: An Insider’s View of Dealing with a Chaotic Superpower, Plutocrats, and Other Complicated People.” She joins Morning Joe to discuss her book and explain why she describes the Trump administration’s current actions toward Canada as “deranged and unacceptable.”

With 16 days until the election, candidates are making their final pitches.
