Anyone have a feeling, a lot of retail investors are gonna make a flight to safety with their investments starting Monday, February 3rd, 2025? This should be an interesting and possibly terrifying day on Wall Street tomorrow. #tariffs #tradewar #canada
Your Front Page needs to be 100% Elon coup. If you have to get fired to do it, then get fired. American democracy will be saved or lost in February 2025.
Trumsk cancelled USMCA/Nafta, a deal he brokered only a few years ago as said was a "beautiful deal". Today, Canada's biggest province Ontario, has taken all US booze out of its gov't owned liquor stores (which is all of them) - its just the beginning. He is truly the most short-sighted president
Yes, @nyt--so neutral and calm sounding, but what is really going on here?
Hours after the robbers revealed their plan to hit the bank, the manager developed a security plan to protect it, people's savings, and the employees inside.
Something is off about the whole tariff thing. Wouldn't it be much much cheaper if not free to just up their vetting game of people crossing the border to drop the tariffs?
Depends who "they" are. Trump is complaining about illegals. Well, Canada controls incoming to Canada and the u.s. incoming to u.s. Strictly speaking Trump should have slapped tariffs on the Dept of Homeland Security. They're the ones dropping the ball.
Plus - less than 1% of fentanyl and a trivial number of migrants come into the States via Canada. It is a trumped up excuse concocted by a notorious felon, not a real issue. Don't believe the propaganda.
It'll be quite interesting to watch stock futures Sunday evening to a preview of how the market's going to react at 9:30 Monday. Some are expecting a Black Monday event.
Wait for it. Tarrifs are not the only way to fight back. Contracts are being canceled, buy Canadian means less impact to consumers, and products are being pulled from the shelves. Property is being disposed of. We will not be bullied by a felon.
It's too late for that. They should have used this information to stop him from being reelected. Now, the only way to get rid of him and FElon Musk is to do the same thing Romanians did to Ceaușescu.
Fastest way to make Trump drop his illegal tariffs is to boycott his bros. Stop doing business with Tesla TeslaEnergy, and X. Cancel your META apps: Quest, Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Threads, WhatsApp, WORKplace. Unfortunately there are many other companies enabling Trump, so add to your list.
We’re sorry that the First
Felon “Chode” has jacked up your cost of living with tariffs.
Toilet paper paper may get very expensive
This may be a useful substitute for toilet paper. And remember to flush twice! It’s a long way to the Whitehouse!
Hi America:
🇨🇦Canada here:
If you are experiencing troubling toilet stains caused by Trump Tariffs…there’s a fix for that. It may not clean the dunny any better, but you’ll feel great! Give the “Chode” a swirl! And flush twice; it’s a long way to the Whitehouse…
I don’t know how fascist trump gonna make usa great again by ruining all economic exchange and by standing alone against everybody. He gonna just destroy us economy, us work, and having all the price going like crazy up for citizens. Good luck people.
Link to the protests going on in all 50 states. Something that everyday people can do. Big way to get away from the demoralizion of doom scrolling and into action. https://www.reddit.com/r/50501/s/ZNYiqVtqRP
US Citizen here. To all countries: do this. Do this. I loathe Trump with all my heart. I hate him. I voted against him and I despise him. I want his stupid tactics to blow up in his face.
What would anyone have expected otherwise? Of course they will. Trump hopes to force Americans to only buy American products by raising the price of everything else. It is the poor who will suffer most
like always.
The gouge begins. Prices will increase immediately by 25%, then within weeks another 25% as retaliatory tarriffs take effect. So 50% increase to devastate consumers on both sides of the border Within a month.
An economic war benefits no one! Everyone will lose. America's trade balance in two years will worsen instead of decrease. He should think of other measures to resolve the problems of the American economy
Doesn’t the Times have a Hillary’s email story to write? Or are you too busy giving Tom Cotton covered in space on your back page. Or perhaps you’re hiring another climate Denny for the op-ed pages. Why didn’t I see long farm journalism on why so many Dems have voted for so many of the nominees
Too bad the @nytimes.com didn’t give live updates before the election. Keeping folks informed about how much danger our democracy would be in, if Trump’s elected. Just constant negative press against Biden.
Your reporter, Marshal Petain Baker, referred to Canada and Mexico as "recalcitrant" because they are opposed to the United States violating a legally binding trade treaty, that Trump himself signed, during his first term
Nowhere did Collaborator Baker point out this key fact.
And here's to all countries following Canada's lead. Because the only way to deal with Trump's bullying tactics is to call his bluff. He banks on people caving to his threats. But, like the schoolyard bully who gets punched in the face, he too will back down if you stand up to him...
To be fair, the US has been the world's school yard bully since ww2. Stomp stomp, threats with the world's most advanced military, feeding Israel's war machine, wars to get oil, etc. Now it has a prez 2 match the rep sadly. Sucks for everyone, seeing the legacy first hand. We all lose.
Your gas will go up 15%, and Canada is your lumber source so housing……
Need uranium or surgical mask liners? Canada owns those, baby.
Kleenex? 7.50 and your $10 bottle of maple syrup will now cost $13.
Pay attention to Musk. “What we're seeing is unprecedented in that you have these actors who are not really public officials gaining access to the most sensitive data in government,” says Don Moynihan, a professor of public policy at the University of Michigan.
Dear Canada, Mexico and China, Australia will happily step in to supply you with the wheat, iron ore, grains, beef, fruit, seafood, wine … anything you want.
And we won’t impose any tariffs upon your exports to us.
Give us a call.
Great job reporting on things that you helped 45 accomplish.
The NYT is complicit and has become a mouthpiece for the 1% and their campaign to enslave the world.
Believe it or not, the next election cycle, maga will be angry that next Dem candidate will want to bring down prices. Thats right...maga will equate higher costs of living to "cost of Freedom". Thats what will be the next propaganda phrasing.
This is a battle of wits. Who folds 1st matters. But from the comments I see here, many would have folded because they do not understand international politics and economic bargaining.
Translation (solving for NYT weasel words): Trump's Tariffs Will Increase Inflation. Fed Officials expect that these levies will lead to higher prices.
You helped elect this vile waste of skin, a sexual predator, felon conman! And then in another article about this your headline refers to Canada as recalcitrant, like they are a disobedient child!! For shame!! Looks like you’re taking the bended knee. Deplorable.
Hell ya. This is an illegal and unjustifiable act by the American people. We have a signed trade agreement with the USA and there is minimal movement of drugs or migrants across the Northern border - that was just an excuse for Trump to break the law.
