Both Canada and Mexico have made quick concessions in response to Trump's tariffs and Trump delayed the imposition of tariffs to allow time for further negotiations.
Isn't it great having a real president in charge of the Whitehouse again?
I really like the fact that Trump signs so many documents in public while answering questions from the media. We may never know who really signed most documents that bear Joe Biden's signature. I want to see proof that Biden actually signed thousands of pardons and executive orders.
These "concessions" are just for show. They will not slow down the drug flow in the least, but as long as his minions are buying it, it's a win for him. Again, Trump is going around trying to bully his smaller neighbors and allies because that's what he does. Is this really what Americans want? Apparently almost 50% do, which sadly says a lot about the direction our Country is going Speaking for myself though, I want and expect a lot more from the leaders of the US.
I am skeptical of tariffs myself, but if Joe Biden had not been a Walking Dead, Do-Nothing president and tried using tariffs as leverage to stem the flow of fentanyl and illegal aliens into this country, I would have been hoping that he succeeded.
How can any American citizen be opposed to saving lives lost to poisonous drugs and violent criminal aliens?. Why are you so eager to see Trump fail, regardless of his objectives? You never explain why leaving violent criminal illegal aliens alone and ignoring the fentanyl issue associated with an open border is a good thing. Instead, you give us a non-stop Trump hate fest.
Looking at it objectively, which I realize that you can't, face it, Trump blinked. He stated that there was absolutely nothing that Canada or Mexico could do to avoid the tariffs. Was he lying? The markets started to tank and there were warnings that grocery prices and auto prices would increase, so Trump pretty much backed down and them claimed a victory. Mexico moved 10,000 troops to the border last year at Biden's request, so where is this victory?
I will give him credit for addressing the drug problem anyway as the Biden administration did very little to curb it. I don't really understand the emphasis on Canada though, only .2% of the fentanyl seized last year was at the Canadian border.
You don't understand Trump's threatening Canada with tariffs because you confuse Democrat propaganda with news and you have no need for the truth. If Trump is for it, then you are against it. Reading real news would be a waste of your time.
