President Donald Trump on Monday agreed to a 30-day pause on his tariff threats against Mexico and Canada as America’s two largest trading partners took steps to appease his concerns about border security and drug trafficking.

Appease? We already were working on it. The orange idiot is lying again. We will stand on guard still. We ain’t stupid. He’ll try again. Plus he pissed us off threatening our sovereignty. I’m not buying anything American. I already buy mostly Canadian. No netflix, prime and apple apps.
As long as the orange baby man believes that Mexico and Canada agreed to appease his concerns, he thinks he won already. Mexico and Canada actually do not need to do anything.
You have the room in this headline. Be honest! The "steps" they took were ones that they already promised under Biden. Trump lied and whined and got nothing new. All he did was purposely cause chaos and harm to the American people.
My takeaway is that Trump knew nothing of the agreements already in
place and got played by Canada and Mexico. They’ve been in touch and strategizing. Then there’s the stock market drops.
Don’t give Trump credit for anything he ‘accidentally’ does.
Canada's fentanyl captures represent .2% of those at the southern border, and Mexico's commitment of 10,000 troops had already been fulfilled during the Biden administration.
Great work, dear leader. You really twisted their arms this time.
FFS Chicago Tribune DO BETTER! You do realize Trump is illegally attacking our federal agencies and Musk and his band of baby hackers are stealing our confidential data, correct? STOP propping up a traitor! You should be ashamed.
Yes BUT TELL THE PEOPLE this agreement was negotiated by BIDEN before he left office.
If your going to report shit, report the correct SHIT cause no matter what DJT will shit on you
Chicago tribune Playing to Trump's fragile masculinity. Did you not notice when you stand your ground with the Felon president he caves. That is what happened today. Trump caved. Canada and Mexico played to trumps ego and he bought in. 😂
U seeing a trend here. The fake tough guy bully will fold with strong blow back. He's. Weak , soft , blowing smoke bull shit Opposition. Apply maximum pressure , constantly on every issue. Wimp will fold
The leader of Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, said Monday he will pause all retaliatory measures against the United States after news broke that the threat of tariffs has been put on hold for a month.
What’s not going away in a hurry is an active,”you can’t trust the USA,” sentiment across almost segments of the population. Parallel to that is a general feeling to stop buying US goods by the average Canadian consumer.
Who knows what that fool Trump will do
People are sick and tired of his whiplash tactics
Canadians must drill down on on buying Canadian - should have been doing it all along
Blue state products should remain on shelf
Red state products should be taken off
Because wgaf about Canada unless its making or costing us money? South Park accurately portrayed the general us perception of Canada.
“Meanwhile, in downtown canada city”…
https://bsky.app/profile/dontvotesplit.bsky.social/post/3lhd53n7fvk2c The moronic TWIT-in-Chief backed down because he finally came upon two tacticians willing to call his bluff. His threats were BASED ON LIES. “U.S. government's figures show less than one per cent of fentanyl and illegal migrants are coming from [Canada].”
🚨🚩🚩 Intentionally misleading headline designed to make it look like Canada and Mexico caved to Trump. They DID NOT. These are things they had already agreed to do under Biden and Trump is trying to steal credit.
Neither country changed anything. Stop lying.
Both announced what they had been doing under the Biden administration and Trump claimed it was new stuff. And you fell for it again. What chumps you are, the new Völkischer Beobachter
This changes nothing. He tanked our dollar as a negotiating tactic. I will be buying only local from now on and my plans to visit the USA are cancelled.
No, please report the facts. BOTH Canada and Mexico had already agreed to these terms and had begun acting on them. These are actions they agreed to PREVIOUSLY. This is what trump is crowing about as his big win. Please, practice journalism.
🧵 There was NO deal. Just Trump's lies and half-truths So based on the orange cancerous felon/rapist the US has no need for Cdn oil, softwood, aluminum, rare earth minerals, electricity, zinc, and natural gas. OK, let's start by just turning off the oil period. Arrest Smith and her cabinet for
2/ treason and just turn the spigot off. That gives the orange buffoon about 2 weeks to come up with 3.5 million barrels of oil before the US economy tanks. For the uneducated, the US refineries NEED Canadian heavy crude to function. Without that crude, the refineries will have to shut down. Yes,
3/ they can be reconfigured to handle lighter grads but that will come at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars and a year or so of work. Now the magic question is what will Americans do for gas while waiting for the conversion? What happens when that pain equals an additional $140 per week to
4/ fill your F150? BTW, China would be happy to take that oil at a much higher price. Let's talk about the softwood lumber. Again the idiot Trump has no clue about what he is talking about. 1st of all the US does have lots of trees but on the whole, they are unsuitable for building. They lack the
5/ strength of Cdn softwood because of the climate. And of course, then you have to have mills, transportation, and skilled workers to cut, deliver, and mill those trees. plan on around 3-5 years of development. And what happens to rebuilding LA, new housing, etc. while that infrastructure is being
6/ built? I guess that is the snake Musk's definition of a little pain. Next up is electricity which again he says America doesn't need. Well, I'm betting Maine, Vermont, and New York would disagree since Canada is the soul source of power to 5,600,000 American homes that would go dark without it.
Wait. Still figuring things out :( He wanted to look tough, but also wanted the distraction while engaging in his illegal move to shut down USAID, which was authorized by Congress. If he wants to shut it down, he must legally move a bill through Congress to do so.
Canada already amped up border patrols in January. Since the Dump is misusing the National Guard to the unprotected portions of the 5800+ border. Does he realize that contraband is slipping past CBP? Here’s what Canada has set up at illegal crossing points with police for arrests.
"trump gets tricked into conceding after both mexico and canada "bargain" by agreeing to do something they already had plans to. Trump has no idea what's going on, and looks silly"
It'd be good if you reported this with a little less orange boot up your ass.
Both Canada and Mexico didn't actually do anything that hadn't been previously planned.
Are you an actual newspaper tribune? Because this is so false.
We didn't take any steps to appease him. All of these plans happened last year and under Biden.

Great work, dear leader. You really twisted their arms this time.
you can't believe a word trump says.
he's damaging the credibility of the US.
I don't expect Xi making any last minute phone calls to trump seeking "appeasement."

Don't let him up.

So Ford may be backing off but I don't think the rest of us are
Canada and Mexico,
Pretend more troops. Really zero.
Trump thinks he won. But no.
Tariff troll got played? Bingo!

He needs to help the working class like he promised. They have THE most justification for having voted for him.
Idiot!!

The stock market crashed.
