We are, in some ways, the smaller problem for him. For all the rhetoric he knows they need us.I believe Trumputin respects Carney. He's heard of Carney within his past circles and respects Carney's accomplishments. He had no respect for Justin, probably because he knew Melania and Ivanka wanted to maul Justin and was badmouthed by Justin with Macron. He has no love for Pee Pee. Pee Pee, for some reason, was getting under Trump's skin even though the right wing podcasters were pushing Pee Pee. This surprised me if I'm going to be honest.
I think threats about energy surcharges were made. I think that's what that Ford/Carney meeting was about. And there was probably a quiet one with the Quebec Premier.
That tamped things down. But in the end Trump is still chaos. So buckle up. The shipping of goods from China is about to drop by 35%. Store shelves will have maybe 7-8 weeks after with pre tariff buys and stock ups. Layoffs are happening. Debts are about to be called in.
Second quarter will clearly show a recession. Then the stock crash will happen.
