Orange Hitler Throws Hissy Fit Over Canadian Reagan Ad

[MajorRewrite]

Nobody but nobody is tripping all over themselves to get to the Canadian market. Carney and Ford should have kept their mouths shut.

Crazy person blames Carney and Ford for the trade war Trump started. And Trump started the trade war because he was upset about the trade agreement HE NEGOTIATED with Canada.

Reagan eloquently explained why tariffs are problematic. Apologies if that upsets your MAGA sheep sensibilities.

Reagan Embraced Free Trade and Immigration

April 17, 1987
"I am today releasing the list of Japanese exports to the United States upon which tariffs are being raised, effective today, in response to Japan's inability to enforce our September 1986 agreement on semiconductor trade. I announced my intent to take these actions on March 27 after it became apparent that Japan has not enforced major provisions of the agreement aimed at preventing dumping of semiconductor chips in third-country markets and improving U.S. producers' access to the Japanese market. The health and vitality of the U.S. semiconductor industry are essential to America's future competitiveness. We cannot allow it to be jeopardized by unfair trading practices.
In my March 27 announcement, I said we would impose tariffs on $300 million in Japanese exports to the United States to offset losses suffered by American semiconductor producers as a result of the agreement not being fully implemented. The products upon which the tariffs are being raised were chosen to minimize the impact on American consumers and businesses. All these products are available from domestic or other foreign producers. These actions are being taken to enforce the principles of free and fair trade. I regret that these actions were necessary.
We will eliminate them as soon as we have firm and continuing evidence that the dumping in third-country markets has stopped and that access to the Japanese market has improved. I am encouraged by recent actions taken by the Government of Japan to improve their compliance with the U.S.-Japan semiconductor agreement. I believe the agreement is in the best interests of both Japan and the United States, and I look forward to the day when it is working as effectively as it should."

Let us know when you figure out the difference between what Reagan did and what the felon is doing.

Until then, fuck off with your disingenuous bullshit.

Canada is a failed state. They did it to themselves.

Not even close.

Two more names to add to your little list, trump and you.

 

[whiskeytangofoxtrot]

Trump is a con man and will be rembrred as such. He creates chaos where there is none because he has nothing to offer. Just empty words. He blames others for his shortcomings. The trade agreements he has negotiated in the past are his deals that he is trashing. And us in the process.

And I notice you clipped off the portion of my comment that listed the things Reagan did to lower tariffs and encourage free trade.

Reagan was responding to his reason for Japanese tariffs. He was indicating that tariffs have a time and place. Reagan, as much as he was a free marketeer, used tariffs to protect US manufacturing and level the playing field. Like Trump is doing today. Canada cherry picked the speech is my point. Fuck Canada!!

You triggered idiot, the Reagan speech said he found tariffs distasteful (and unproductive in the long run), but had to use them in special cases during trade disputes.

Trump calls himself "Tariff Man" and says blanket tariffs (with exemptions for industries that bribe him or big countries like China who can strong-arm him over strategic minerals) are beautiful. He's so ignorant he put a tariff on Heard and McDonald Islands, a place with penguins but no people!

Did you even click on that link? Here's the meat of Reagan's statement:

". . . Now, imposing such tariffs or trade barriers and restrictions of any kind are steps that I am loath to take. And in a moment I'll mention the sound economic reasons for this: that over the long run such trade barriers hurt every American worker and consumer. But the Japanese semiconductors were a special case. We had clear evidence that Japanese companies were engaging in unfair trade practices that violated an agreement between Japan and the United States. We expect our trading partners to live up to their agreements. As I've often said: Our commitment to free trade is also a commitment to fair trade.

But you know, in imposing these tariffs we were just trying to deal with a particular problem, not begin a trade war. So, next week I'll be giving Prime Minister Nakasone this same message: We want to continue to work cooperatively on trade problems and want very much to lift these trade restrictions as soon as evidence permits. . . ."

You're an idiot. My point is Canada cherry picked Reagan's speech leading Canadiens to believe Reagan never believed in the use of tariff. The video was misleading. My point has nothing to do with Reagan's position on tariffs. For your info Reagan was a free market advocate.

Why should we buy their shit if they won't buy ours. Buy American. It's you fucking Marxists that want to increase minimum wage to 30 bucks an hour. Suck it up buttercup. Government mandates to increase wages is not advocating for free markets.

The whole point of the Canadian advert was that Reagan was a free-trader and the USA (and the whole world) prospered mightily in the last decades of the 20th century.

You agree that Reagan is a free market advocate.

So why are you complaining?

Canada was doing nothing like what Japan was doing in the 80s. The two situations are completely different. So Reagan would definitely not approve of Trump. In fact he would shake his head at what has become of the Republican Party.

If Reagan were still alive, I can envision him saying "I didn't leave the Republican party, the Republican party left me!"

How is Canada misleading you? And aren't you afraid Hydro Québec might decide to raise your electricity rates? Or even cut off entirely, until your President TACOs?
