dint he just do 50% tariffs on steel
“I feel terrible for the American people because it’s not the American people, and it’s not even elected officials, it’s one person,”
Like hell. Congress is the one thing with the power to end this madness. The Republicans in control of both houses are absolutely responsible as they are doing literally nothing to rein in Trump’s madness.
The vast majority of people either voted for Trump or didn’t vote at all. Americans chose this madness either through action or inaction. They should feel accountable for the forthcoming consequences. Democracy in action.
they are enabling and complicit, the gop also dont want to feel TRUMPs wrath and they also want to grift from whats hes getting from billionaires and russia.
Idk how much of a threat it actually is, but wasn’t musk threatening to primary anyone who went against him?
I initially read this as if Musk said he’d have them killed, since in EVE Online “to primary” someone means for a fleet commander to call someone out as the primary target and have their fleet start shooting at them.
If a threat from an unelected foreign Nazi is all it takes to keep you from doing your job, you’re not fit to hold public office.
Agreed. It’s 80% of the elected officials at this point. It’s unfortunate that foreign puppets are in power.
American here.
Keep doing what you’re doing Canada. Don’t play this retard’s game. The ONLY thing conservatives understand is money. Hit them where it hurts. It’s the only thing that’ll make them sour on this traitor.
I think that the Canadian politicians fear that then the economic struggle due to tariff wars may cause resentment against them than the USA. So they try to find a way to avoid a war
Yeah the world’s doing its part, but it’d be nice if Americans did theirs.
Other than Bernie Sanders, the rest sure like to bitch a lot, but actions speak louder and they’re not getting out of their couches…
American trade is nearly worth half of Canada’s total GDP. something like 75~80% of total Canadian exports go to the US. if they actually retaliate in force they could be dooming their country to an economic crisis if Trump is spiteful enough. so far the Canadian tariffs have only touched about $30B worth of goods, or 7% of the total trade.
Honest question - are Canadians generally fine with normal US citizens with no untoward agenda still coming to visit and shop in Canada? I love partaking in the cuisine, a museum, and a library in a relatively nearby border town. Especially the more ethnically-diverse cuisine, because shitty generic Americana fare gets tiresome. Canadian Tire is fun, too, although I do secretly wonder why it’s not Canadian Tyre. Curious to know if US plates on a car in Canada generate a negative response nowadays.
Also, I’m sorry about the reality for which I felt the need to ask this question.
Come spend your money, just don’t act all full of yourself like some Americans do.
Also, “tyre” is British spelling. We kind of have our own spelling where we generally use British spelling, but not for everything. For example, we don’t spell fetus as “foetus” or estrogen as “oestrogen” either. There’s probably some fancy official name for it.
