There's already twitter trolls tweeting "If Canada doesnt want to become 51st State, we'll just invade and take their country from them".

After just 2 months of Trump this is where we're at now, folks

While the majority of Aluminum to the US comes from Canada. He is going to cripple his own country, Trumputin AKA DUMBASS.

btw....where is Mitchy? It's been very very quiet without all the misinformation vomit the last few days. Nobody has been ordering my vomit suits and they are tariff free for now. I also miss my :ROFLMAO: badges dammit!!! Where's Ritchie, come on Ritchie, slap a :ROFLMAO: on me man.

He may have packed his belongings and moved to Florida to be close to his master. Hopefully Mitchy has been given an office next to Marjorie.
Eatching Bloomberg, they don't have the capacity on Aluminum due to the high electricity cost to make it. And US manufacturers won't increase production without long term (20 year+) contracts. Steel they run about 75% capacity and can increase production. But it won't actually result in more jobs.

We need Manitoba and the prairies to match the Electricity and add Oil surchanrges now. Really ramp up the pressure.

Phil, are you yet regretting having supported the POS??? I think you are, you woke FUCKER!!! LOL
Not yet, but I'm slowly getting there.

If its any comfort to you Lefties, half of America is on Canada's side right now, and against Trump.
I've gotten a bunch of texts and emails from US friends and former colleagues, and they are all embarrassed at whats happening.
And that number appears to be growing, especially amongst people who voted for Trump

Will there be the same anti China sentiment as there is anti American in Canada next week when they slap retaliatory tariffs against Canada for putting 100% tariffs on their EVs?

If they want to starve their people that's up to them. Chinese EV's are shitty as all hell. We don't want those explosive devices on Canadian roads. Especially on salt roads in winter.

Doug Ford and Lutnick will meet this thursday to try and hammer out a new USMCA deal.

I think they'll work something out

The question is when will the pressure on Trumputin and Elon Mush be overwhelming and make these two douchebags back off of tariffs and crazy cuts. Everyone in the know was saying Trump's policies would put the US into a recession yet they happily voted for him believing he would make America great again! LMFAO
Don't think it'll happen. I'm from the U.S., and despite the damage that's been done the past two months, this is how most of his supporters think: It's OK if he fucks us over as long as he fucks over people we hate (i.e., people of color, immigrants and essentially every other country in the world). Most countries would have hanged this guy long ago for all the damage he's done to mankind. Here, there's a gigantic cult that wears stupid red hats while wrapping themselves in the flag and whacking it to Fox News. It's true, you can't fix stupid.

Who in their right mind thought a real estate agent was a some type of master business man? :ROFLMAO:

Eventually, I think Trump will settle on a much lower deal, but claim it's a huge victory. These stall tactics can't work for 4 years.

A great article in the Financial Post today with another angle on the tariffs.
Deeper issues than tariffs roiling markets | Financial Post

A synopsis:
"One key underlying issue is the current administration’s need for significantly lower interest rates.
Historically, the most effective way to push the U.S. Federal Reserve toward easing monetary policy is through signs of economic weakness and a declining equity market.
This strategy may be particularly critical now, given the looming wall of U.S. debt maturities."

I think poor rural Trump voters will never change, even when he cuts off their benefits. But middle-class and especially upper-class Trump voters are not going ignore this.

They don't want to lose their jobs and they don't want to lose their investments.

It reminds me of Trudeau introducing the capital gains tax. His rich Liberal supports started distancing themselves.

@squeezer , I'm really off Trump right now. In fact, I hope Carney beats Pierre in the up coming election!! Trump has carried this tariff crap way too far.

I think Trump will respect Carney much more, then he would Pierre. Trump will be impressed by Carney's financial background. Also, I think Doug Ford is doing a great job, in his interviews on the American networks. For someone who was a huge Trump fan, I'm not anymore.....LMAO
Holy fuck! MITCHY, fuck....I can't give you a :ROFLMAO: for this post. Wait, is it you behind the keyboard??? Ms. Mitchy, give Mitchy his keyboard back, I'm worried about him right now.
