Trump Tariffs work in less than three days!

[Always in His Presence]

US pauses tariffs on Mexico, Canada for a month​

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a post on social media, writing, "Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan -- reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl.​

​

Trudeau also added, "Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border." The moves will result in a 30-day delay in the tariffs in order to work out a deal, he said.​

​

The moves mirror similar promises Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum issued earlier in the day after speaking to Trump.​

​

U.S. tariffs imposed on Mexico have been "paused for a month," Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said in a post on X Monday shortly after speaking to President Donald Trump. Trump confirmed the news shortly after in a social media post of his own.​

​

Sheinbaum said Mexico has agreed to "reinforce" the Mexico-U.S. border with 10,000 National Guard troops "immediately." She also said the U.S. had agreed to work to prevent high-powered weapons from being trafficked into Mexico.​

​

BRAVO President Trump

You do understand, that they will up the price of their products. So they make a profit. So, American consumers lose and pay more. Right?

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.

"Working" is not getting Mexico and Canada to capitulate to demands. We can call them "working" only if the actions have the desired result. I think we will have to wait and see on that.

Came here to say exactly this.

They're spinning it as a win, when it's just a reversion to the status quo. The methodology is this: See a problem (real or imagined)-invent 'crisis'-make performative threats of the 'other'-avert 'crisis'-revert to previous arrangements-claim victory against the 'other'.

The net result has been zero change, except the US' reputation as a reliable partner has taken a huge hit. Don't be surprised if Mexico and Canada start negotiating trade deals with other markets in order to diversify their revenue streams.

They musk be distracting you from something pretty big, pulling such a load of this stuff this early into the presidency.

Trump announces pause on Mexico tariffs after striking deal

Trump revealed he negotiated assistance from Mexico to strengthen the United States’ southern border.

This is what happens when a strong POTUS is putting America first and fulfilling his promise to close down the borders against illegal immigrants and fight against the massive flood of fentanyl which is killing a hundred thousand Americans a year.

Ronald Reagan speaks from the grave:

Part of the difficulty in accepting the good news about trade is in our words. We too often talk about trade while using the vocabulary of war. In war, for one side to win, the other must lose. But commerce is not warfare. Trade is an economic alliance that benefits both countries. There are no losers, only winners. And trade helps strengthen the free world.

Yet today protectionism is being used by some American politicians as a cheap form of nationalism, a fig leaf for those unwilling to maintain America's military strength and who lack the resolve to stand up to real enemies—countries that would use violence against us or our allies. Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag. The expansion of the international economy is not a foreign invasion; it is an American triumph, one we worked hard to achieve, and something central to our vision of a peaceful and prosperous world of freedom.

Now then, who do you suppose that dangerous demagogue is in our time?

That's what I said to my husband last night.
How do you defeat a bully? You get together with a few of your friends to defeat the bully--and that's what will probably happen.

You don't defeat a bully by making a big show of putting up a resistance and then caving the next day and giving him your lunch money.

An America first agenda is not being a bully. It means standing up strong and refusing to allow globalists to take advantage of the USA.

I'm sure many bullys, in their mind, are standing up strong and refusing to be taken advantage of.

It looks like bullying behaviour to me. It certainly looked like bullying to Canada and Mexico.

Biden got Mexico to deploy troops temporarily. Trump says this will be permanent.
We will have to wait and see

 

[Always in His Presence]

Mexico and Canada are SENDING 10,000 soldiers. That means it is about to happen, regardless of what happened during Joe’s regime.

The difference is found in the number of illegal border crossings.

 

[Fantine]

That's what you think.
What matters is the perception of the victimized countries.
The victimized countries rethink their "alliance." They become suspicious and walk on eggshells, defensive, on alert, as they gradually pull away and form new alliances.
And they aren't thinking, not for a minute, "Trump's supporters say he's not a bully and they must be right."

Rather than using diplomacy, Trump bullies others. He could have sent an ambassador type to discuss the issues and make a plan together, but diplomacy is not Trump's thing. He makes threats and presents 'facts' that are not true. For example, the US does not subsidize Canada. There is a trade imbalance because America is a bigger country population wise, and buys more from Canada than Canada can buy from the US. It is not rocket science.
Trump also did not tell the truth about US banks in Canada. YES, there are US banks in Canada:

Trump wrong, U.S. banks can and do operate in Canada, association and professor say

The association representing bankers in Canada says U.S. subsidiaries and branches represent half of all foreign bank assets in the country, despite false claims by U.S. President Donald Trump that American banks can't do business north of the border.

The association representing bankers in Canada says U.S. subsidiaries and branches represent half of all foreign bank assets in the country, despite false claims by U.S. President Donald Trump that American banks can't do business north of the border.​

​

"There are 16 U.S. based bank subsidiaries and branches with around C$113 billion in assets currently operating in Canada," the Canadian Bankers Association said in a statement Monday.​

​

​

"These banks specialize in a range of financial services, including corporate and commercial lending, treasury services, credit card products, investment banking and mortgage financing. They serve not only customers with cross-border business activities, but also Canada’s domestic retail market."​

I grow tired of his false 'facts'.
