That’s why all Trump talks about is absorbing Canada & with that, everything the U.S. needs & cannot function without.
He is lying to strengthen his negotiating position but it’s just so damn obvious, it’s insulting.
This fokker, right out of the gate wrecked it for himself.
And that is just how f'ing stupid he is.
What we should do though is quadruple the prices of each of those items. I want to see the ensuing riots
We know mango Mussolini wants our resources. His story may change daily but we know.
& now we’re pissed.
Should read:
80% of the potash used by U.S. farmers comes from Canadian mines, and the costs WILL skyrocket WHEN tariffs happen...
What part of 25% tariffs on everything Canadian and Mexican don't they get???
Trump will invade when countries stop selling their products to the US.
It's called entitlement logic.
(And this feels weirdly like 9/11 right now; we know for certain that the world has just irreversibly changed, but have no idea what's ahead.)
😕

If Russia pulls those contracts in order to send it to the US, Putin will have some angry allies on his hands.
The EU is increasing the amount of potash they get from us.

Yup, this is why Grassley asked/pleaded with Trump to exempt potash from the tariffs he placing on all imports from Canada

Le sigh.
Stop all potash delivery for "safety inspections"
Turn off the oil to American refineries.
I'll eat grass before I would kowtow to that stooge
You might want to mention it to your Russian asset.
This week, I did not buy even one item at the grocery store, from the USA. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was.
There were over 100 train cars heading south.
When dictator Trump says Canada doesn't have anything the US needs, we know it's an odious lie.
USA, you must delete Trump-Musk-Vance and a few others. Clean your act. Fast.
Together, we can have significant leverage and power over the oligarchs. But we must take action.
Don't buy a Tesla, cancel your X profile, don't use the Meta platforms, etc.
Stop usingall the Meta platforms (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc.)

Don't follow journalists/media who bent the knee
Don't buy from Whole Foods (Bezos)
Don't use Airbnb
Don't use Spotify
Etc.
Not only potash but electricity, heat and water. Canada has the most water in the world and we supply it to Nevada and other desert states. Canadians don't want to shut anything off and don't think our leaders will unless Trump gets very ugly & heavy handed with us
David Chartrand, president of the Métis government, uttered the phrase upon announcing the MMF had signed a royalty agreement with the developer behind Manitoba’s first potash mine.
We in Canada could however, raise the price, but that would only screw over farmers and give more for trump to steal.
I revisited your comment and want to confirm that you are right about the mechanism behind tariffs. My comment should have said: Canada ought to raise the price by 25% to inflict pain on Trump voters even if it means that the US market might break away.
I’m just so furious.
I can live on rice and beans if I have to.
#FAFO I'll always be okay. Magats and farmers won't.
Just look how that egg thing almost drove them insane.
Can someone do extensive quotes.
And there is no alternative.
Oh wait, Russia and Belarus.
Impose sanctions on Canada and grab some cheap Russian potash.

Not any will do.
Farmers can farm without it or a smaller spread BUT yields will go down drastically.

You can search for your pins.
If you can’t MANAGE a Family Farm ( handed down & been payed for by Grandparents) get a different job.
There is no plan. The Krasnov WH does not care about average Americans.
Major potash-producing countries include:
• Canada (largest producer)
• Russia
• Belarus
• China
• Germany
Get your potash elsewhere or pay up.
We don’t care.
We’re done with the fucking threats.
80% sounds a lot like a virtual monopoly; the Orange asshole said Canada has nothing the US needs. Let’s take him at his word and just cut it off completely.
Abuse, repeat ! Trumputin!
We do, however, mine a lot of it. Kazakhstan is the largest producer, Canada second. The US of course is the biggest importer.
Either that or they reduce application rates and settle for lower yields - which also drives up prices
He is a loathsome idiot of a man
Yes, Donald, you'll be increasing EGG prices even more
Let MAGA experience this isolationism to its fullest since they think that's what makes us great.
I am tired of waiting for the hammer to fall. Its time the world teach MAGA a lesson. Sadly, WE have to suffer as well.
The top destinations for Canadian potash exports were the United States, Brazil, and China.
I sit in middle America, right now. I know this will hurt ME too.
This needs to happen for a generational reset to happen. The USA since Gen X generation has had it very comfy. No polio, no measles, no depression.
Crybaby wanted x shut down because he couldn’t control the narrative.

You sound like you want to help MAGA farmers. Your red hat might be on a tad too tight, this morning.
Queen is my alpha and omega. I cant watch a queen documentary without weeping like a child.
You spotted my nod to the band, and replied correctly!
NICE WORK!

Saw Queen+Lambert in 2017 and again in 2023. Been to rock concerts my whole life. I kept asking my wife to check my bias, but the 2023 Dallas Show WAS THE BEST concert of my entire life. The band, the setlist THE SOUND.

won’t pull their punches.
Canadians are genuinely nice,
peaceful people. I’m a New Yorker
and I’ve been around them all my
life. Canadians are decorous and tolerant, always.
Until you try to swindle them
out of their money😂
Then it’s FAFO 100%
We have had it too good for too long. I am 55 and when we covered Polio in school, it was half a page in a history book. Nearly a footnote. My generation and the ones who've followed have never seen a pal in an iron lung.
THIS is why everyone (half of everyone) that it would be super swell to put a reality TV host in as the leader of the free world.

The MAGA cult will nod in agreement.
They continue to reinforce their stupidity as witness in the numerous second guessing who they fired.
No forethought seems to be the new norm?

Pure bs.
Oil & gas. Potash. Mineral wealth. Fresh water. Territory straight to the Arctic Circle.
All things Trump conveniently fails to mention when claiming 🇨🇦 is such a worthless case the US really should make us the 51st state.
🤔
Now I'm hungry. Soon America will be (Hungary)too.
