Trump Tariffs work in less than three days!

[Valletta]

You think the information on fentanyl came from democratic leadership?

Who else would claim that fentanyl from Canada is not a problem? Notice a lot of the calls from leading Democrats are word for word the same.

Wow, the minuscule amount of fentanyl coming acrost the northern border should get all of the attention that it deserves.
Should we maybe focus on this trickle and ignore the torrents elsewhere?
Sure, why not?

 

[FAITH-IN-HIM]

Except there is far fewer Canadians consuming our products than us consuming theirs.

Your paycheck covers everything and not just Canadian syrup. All your goods haven't gone up 25%. Although it came close under Biden.

Canada needs us buying their stuff more than we need them buying our stuff.

You are correct; fewer Canadians consume American products. This is due to the population difference, with 41 million Canadians compared to 340 million Americans. You do not imply that 41 million Canadians should consume the same amount as 340 million Americans, do you?

All Mexico and Canada have to do is properly coordinate with the United States. Currently terrorists through Canada are more of a problem than in Mexico, fentanyl through Mexico is more of a problem than in Canada. China supplies the ingredients for fentanyl and steals much U.S. intellectual property. Of course this can change, the enemies of the United States find the weakest link. I thought Trump was quite transparent in his campaign, as he is now. Trump provides a list of what he is accomplishing. Remember Pelosi said let us pass a bill and read it later. As I've said many times I am an advocate for government transparency and accountability.

Oh!? Other countries just have to accommodate the USA and do things because we asked nice and issued tariffs on them?
How discourteous of them to not do the things that we Americans say that they should do!

Currently terrorists through Canada are more of a problem than in Mexico, fentanyl through Mexico is more of a problem than in Canada.

Where do you obtain your information, I would like to peruse your sources?

China supplies the ingredients for fentanyl and steals much U.S. intellectual property.

China the nation-state or “Chinese companies“?

Of course this can change, the enemies of the United States find the weakest link. I thought Trump was quite transparent in his campaign, as he is now.

Oh a fair number of us can see through Trump, but this isn’t the same as him being transparent.

Trump provides a list of what he is accomplishing.

Right, all-the-better to have us worship appreciate all he’s done to for us!

Remember Pelosi said let us pass a bill and read it later. As I've said many times I am an advocate for government transparency and accountability.

How is the PP-ACA fairing these days?

Democrat leaders said the border was safe, secure, and closed and that Joe was energetic and sharp as a tack. Why would you believe them about fentanyl?

It is not Democratic leaders who have made the claim.

Source?

"To date in FY23, 85% of all suspected terrorists encountered at land border ports of entry have crossed into the United States along the Northern border, according to U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP). That number is up from just 34% in FY2021."

You have cited a government agency as a source for your information about terrorists flowing in from Canada. Well despite your misrepresentations to the contrary, it is also a government agency, not "democratic leaders" that is the source indicating that well under 1% of the fentanyl coming into the United States is coming from Canada.

Now then, do you or do you not trust government sources? If you trust them on the matter of terrorists from Canada, why do you not trust them on the matter of fentanyl from Canada?

 

[expos4ever]

For the moment, I have no reason to dispute the claim that 85% of terrorists nabbed entering the US crossed at the Canadian border. But let's talk about guns. In Toronto, 90% of the guns used in crime came from, yes, the USA. Should Canada, then, impose punitive tariffs on the United States in order to stem the illegal flow of guns into our country, guns that kill Canadian citizens?

I trust the point is clear.

I misrepresent nothing, please stop false accusations against me. I took the time to find "a" source for you, there are multiple sources which have reported this fact.

There is no way that Tariffs help us.

I'll just leave this here....

Trudeau issues BRUTAL WARNING to Trump

 

[loveofourlord]

...trump already has caved and giving exemptions to the auto manufacturers this is just hilarious.

 

[loveofourlord]

"A trade deficit simply means a country is importing more than it is exporting. As the Congressional Research Service reported in 2018, Trump’s fixation on reversing the deficit “contrasts with the views of most economists.”​

​

"No one can answer why we subsidize Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year? " --Trump​

The first comment was back from 2018. It has always been about the trade deficits that he doesn't understand.

I've been thinking this, Canada has 1/10th the population, but some how still almost buys as much as the US, looks to me the US isn't doing their purchasing share.

 

[loveofourlord]

Really? Let's look at that deficit next year after the tariffs take effect for a while.

Uh, huh - and then the Canadians moved instead of just talking about it.

Please, please keep repeating the "Trump lied" line - it helped get him in office and will help the elections in two years. Thank you!

It's going to probably be worse, Cnadains are refusing to buy stuff unless they need it, and the US still needs our items.

 

[loveofourlord]

In the tariff war, Canada is likely to lose due to its smaller economy compared to the US. The US can sustain this tariff war, but it will not reduce the deficit as advertised. Many Americans seem to have forgotten basic math.

The problem is that Americans see this as an economic issue and will likely forget the price in six months, reverting to buying Canadian goods. For Canadians, it's a patriotic duty. Many Canadians are upset and are already changing their consumption habits of American products.

except that Canada hasn't just alienated most of the world and is already looking for alternatives to sell stuff too, but the US still needs stuff from us.

 

[expos4ever]

I misrepresent nothing, please stop false accusations against me. I took the time to find "a" source for you, there are multiple sources which have reported this fact.

It is not a false accusation.

To wit: when I stated that only 0.2% of the fentanyl came from Canada, your response was this:

Democrat leaders said the border was safe, secure, and closed and that Joe was energetic and sharp as a tack. Why would you believe them about fentanyl?

The figure of 0.2 % did not come from "Democratic leaders", it came from US Customs and Border Protection.

Now then, are you trying to distort what it going on here by implying that just because "Democratic leaders" may have cited this figure, they are therefore the source of this figure?

Simple question, yes or no.

 

[FireDragon76]

LOL! Mexico sent 10,000 troups to the border in 2021, while Biden was President, and Biden didn't have to bully our southern neighbor nor cause the stock market to go down or cause anxiety to American companies, like the automotive industry that depends on Mexican made parts for their cars.
And Canada announced the same plan back on Dec. 20, 2024. Trump didn't get anything new except alienating our neighbor who was there for the US after 9/11, and who helped Americans escape Iran during the Iranian hostage crisis in the 70s.

It is all marketing baloney.

Biden accomplished the same thing with a smile and a handshake and alot less drama.

To celebrate Trump's accomplishment here is to revel in needless cruelty and contempt. This is not a proper Christian attitude.
