Only Donald Trump could think it makes sense to punish Mexico and Canada more than China.
Although keep in mind, the real punishment is for Americans. This is a direct Trump tax on us, consumers, that we will pay.

But that protection also allows domestic industry to produce goods less efficiently than in the international market, at a higher price than the one available through international trade.

Then free suddenly is no longer free and the customer is dependent and stuck on the drug.
As a Canadian, I want to see our country tell the U.S.A to go screw themselves.
Time someone stood up to your pathetic government.
Many of us in the US are outraged!
UK escapes this time but will have to take hormone beef and chlorine washed chicken (if there are any left) when it is time to talk trade
When will this fucking madness end?
Canada and Mexico get 25% penalty as we have trade deficits; China has killed "10's of millions Americans (her words)" and are penalized 10%. So which is more important to Trump and Musk: people or goods???

People were complaining about Biden.
Biden was coping with broken supply chains causing Inflation.
People will have MORE reason to complain about #Trump.
Once prices have been raised there is a tendency for them to stay stuck at the new elevated levels.
I like that hashtag, Joyce.
China has a huge Tesla plant.

It’s unfortunate they are dragging the rest of us down with them.
Do you really believe Kamala (who was the VP with top secret intelligence) would walk away from the cheating conspiracy posted on the internet if it was true?
I am not suggesting people do anything I wouldn’t do
1. Pay for their tax breaks
2. Drive down price gouging because no company will raise prices by 25%
Or does our modern day Snidely Whiplash have other plans for this windfall?
Oy vey.
DON F***ING HENLEY!
Pass it in on!
Some builders will go bust and there will be more unemployment.
I'd bet the farm on it.

His rhetoric won him the election & he’ll keep on doing it.
Global warming started it but DJT will turn things to 4 alarm dumpster fire.
Bend Oregon also seeing mortgage failures due to inability to insure.
Palisades and Eaton fires will have grave insurance impacts by 2026.
It's ANOTHER for SANE and RESPONSIBLE Americans and politicians to go along with it!
All I have to say is: WTAF ???
But we are trapped below the border in a hellscape of **Trumpian proportions.
Time to plan a 206 week vacation out of the country!
SUCKERS!
Everyone’s heard the same story about a good brand gone bad, thanks to Amazon & China:
“Doc Marten’s used to be the best shoes! But, they moved production to China. Now the soles fall apart after only a year.”
After Trump tariffs ~ they will be EXPENSIVE crap shoes.
Because when I tell you I've been HOLLERING since yesterday😂😂😂😂
Let me turn it around.
Who wants to face down #Trump.
The law is only as strong as those who enforce it. 😡🥵🤬
But Alas, here we are. Stuck with a dishonest president whose admiration for dictators. And corruption are a priority.
Is lack of math skills a requirement to work in the trump admin?
As for the #OrangeRapist's notion that Canada or Mexico control the USA border, fuck he is Stupid. Only the US has the power to allow or stop people entering the US.
This is bad for everyone but our enemies. Canada should join the EU.
Manufacturing was coming back to North America but who knows now.
Retaliate if you must, but don’t bend the knee. And know there are plenty of Americans here who are vehemently against everything he does.
So he knows that Americans will be met with the inability to afford needed items. He does not care that it is Americans that will suffer.
🇨🇦Canada here:
She looks genuinely pleased to be screwing tens of millions of Americans by jacking their cost
of living. The “First Felon Trump Tariffs” will be paid for by Americans whenever they buy goods from abroad, or domestic goods made with foreign content.
First Felon Trump Tariffs are meant to pay for the Uber-Rich Tax break. Tens of millions of Americans will
Pay more for everything and many more will lose their jobs. Don’t let them bullshit you…
🇨🇦We’re sorry your president is a dickhead.
Or something like that
