The gloves are off

[Trumpedo]

Doug Ford used to love trump, now the honeymoon is over. He laid into trump at a press briefing today, basically calling him an asshole for the new tariffs imposed on aluminium.
It's us vs them he said. He urged everyone to stop buying anything from the USA, buy only local items.
trump's response should be good.

Any guesses on what Ford's new nickname will be?

It's a pretty fucking funny move on Trumps part. A: he is not going to "force" open the Canadian border, no matter how fucking hard he tries. B: the US uses more raw aluminium in it's manufacturing production than it mines on it's own. C; Freeland will again target reciprocal tariffs on items mainly made in Republican states which have identical products manufactured and allowed to enter Canada tariff free roughly three months before the US election.

Seriously how stupid or unhinged is Trump becoming? How the price of products that are made using aluminium rising in the US, and the drop of purchases of exported products from the US since similar products on Canadian store shelves will be cheaper, is going to help Trump???

Worse yet, there are a bunch of Americans who will say this is a good move on Trumps part.......I cannot wait to hear their defence....

Not surprising, in general Americans are completely ignorant of any one or any thing out side the US....

At least with the advent of google I have not had too many Americans ask me anymore what it is like living in an igloo....

LOL....GOOD!!!

They take cheap shots at (R)'s and (D)'s let them....time to hit back.

Hopefully Trump just SHUTS THEM DOWN, they get ZERO. I hope we kick those snooty fuckers in the god damn teeth and embargo them like they were Cuba and it's 1958. Fuck Canada.

Chrystia Freeland personally apologizes for WE Charity scandal

Canada's deputy prime minister says she is personally sorry for the WE Charity scandal and hopes Canadians can retain "real confidence in their leadership" as the federal government works toward a safe re-opening of the economy.

But the announcement was overshadowed by questions about why the government awarded a contract to administer a $912-million summer student grants program to WE, a charity that has paid Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's mother and brother a combined $300,000 in speaker fees.

Which has what to do with the Premier of Ontario or the US tariff?

Oh right, nothing....

 

[Trumpedo]

Nobody down here gives a shit.

The 19 US states whose #1 trading partner is Ontario will. A dumb move by trump that will ultimately do nothing but hurt a huge portion of US business. That'll help the economy.

Lol, sit down, child.

Isn't it too early for the potted plant to expose his ignorance? I'm not even done with the first cup of covfefe!

It is amazing how stupid Trump supporters are. They simply do not understand the dynamics of a World economy. One country...doesn't matter even if at one time they had the largest economy...is nothing compared to the rest of the World combined. Let us look at numbers before the virus decimated the US. 24.07% of the World GDP. So doing some math...what is 100% minus 24.07%? Come on you can do it. Then...which is bigger? 24.07? Or 75.93? The US has nothing that can't be obtained elsewhere. So if you isolate by throwing up Trump temper tantrum tariffs...those countries say ok...we will go elsewhere

Now comes the fun question. If you lose market share, how do you get that back? By dropping prices. Econ 101. Lol. Ask the farmers how much they are getting for their crops this year.

I doubt it.

 

[surdeep]

I doubt it.

Dummy. 360-390 Billion in 2 way trade /year between Ontario alone and the USA.

According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, ‘bringing back these tariffs would be like a bad horror movie.

Most of the U.S. aluminum sector opposes them, and they’ll hurt American manufacturers who use aluminum as an input.’

This sentiment was echoed by The Aluminum Association, which represents more than 120 U.S. companies across the entire industry value chain, saying ‘this dynamic is hurting aluminum workers today’ and ‘efforts to ‘Blame Canada’ miss the mark.’

Keep in mind that this president, who brags about being an Ivy Leaguer more than any other president I can recall, still believes that tariffs are paid by the country they're imposed on rather than by Americans who import things.

Keep in mind that if you keep giving tax breaks...and handing out free money...you have to pay for it somehow. His followers are too dumb to understand they are being screwed by paying those tariffs. Even with the tariffs, the products are STILL cheaper and BETTER quality than American made products. All it is, is a revenue source. Other countries have moved on. They don't need us
