Is Donald getting cold feet already? Canada hasn't even begun to fight and we're not in a mood to be conciliatory. Canadians see this grifter for who he is. And we know that a tariff is a tariff is a tariff. Back down Donnie. All the way down. globalnews.ca/news/1106596...

I sure would like to know who has been buying the dips right before Trump announces he has changed his mind and reverses a tariff. Seems like valuable information in the markets to know when he announces a tariff and when he’s going to rescind it.

The second worse thing about this tariff business is having to agree with Doug Ford so much.

Sorry #Kentucky #Tennessee #JackDaniels #jimbeam It is really retailing 101, if the customers won't buy it, use the shelf space for something else, AND put simply Canadians won't buy it at the moment. Even if tariffs are withdrawn many Canadians I've talked to will no longer be customers.

So when is the US setting up a potash factory to help farmers ? "Crickets" But apply a 25% #tariff on potash? How does that benefit American farmers, consumers, workers ? How do you put a crop in the ground when it costs you way MORE and you have no idea who may buy the crop and at what PRICE

Trump claims to be helping farmers with tariffs One teensy problem with that -- America is the #1 agricultural exporter in the world When other countries retaliate with more tariffs, exporters get absolutely destroyed American farmers are about to suffer terribly

Funniest moment last night was Trump telling farmers to “have fun” after announcing a new round of tariffs that will be absolutely hose them.

Not just Minnesota. Trumps #tariff s will destroy farmers. www.axios.com/local/chicag... Maybe Trump will do an exemption for potash, but even if you can grow crops, who will you sell them too ? and what price will you get ?

Farmers. Here is a review of the Trump #tariff s www.axios.com/local/chicag... The tariffs on Mexico and Canada are damaging for input costs and destruction of the exports. Sad when this trade is all covered by the USMCA which Trump signed, but it shows you can't trust any agreement made by Trump.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

Musk states "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy". Charles Darwin, who actually researched this stuff, showed it was empathy, specifically, that enabled humanity to flourish.

Seriously - trust and empathy is what allows sophisticated economies to work, because we cannot put an enforced contract or price on everything - the transactions costs would slow everything to a crawl.

The thing about delaying auto tariffs a month is that, guess what, you're still going to be dealing with the Canadian/Mexican response, and both have significant leverage. Also: delaying a month does nothing to solve the problem of totally integrated supply chains.

1/No one should breath easier because of auto exemption in US/Mexico/Canada tariffs. The damage to US credibility is already done. And they generate huge incentive for corruption as auto companies are over a barrel to maintain these carve outs. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

Fox Business interviewed the owner of a Pennsylvania auto dealership who says of Trump's tariffs, "nobody is gonna buy the truck, because it just had $20,000 price increase ... this is pretty radical." The show then cut back to Maria Bartiromo, who threw a tantrum.

#tariff delay by 1 mth? Can't see how that helps anyone! If I order a new RAM pickup that last month was 80,000$ what price can a dealer now sell it? As a dealer would you sell an 80,000 truck and then order one for 100,000? No You would keep the 80,000 truck on the lot and wait a mth

Yeah you can listen and believe the BULL from the White house about #tariffs or you can check with a new car dealer and get the THE REAL PRICE IMPACT. Ordered an $80,000 truck, but now it's 100,000. So now it will sit on the dealers lot.

Trump is delaying tariffs for the auto industry precisely because his tariffs will result in the "bloodbath" he warned about during the election. Read about how Trump's various tariffs would wreck the U.S. auto industry here: www.mediamatters.org/wall-street-...

Trump surrenders on autos after less than 2 days after the market tanked and he heard from auto CEOs and Republicans in Congress. He’s a feckless dipshit.

Please do the same for #Tariffs, because no country or business can keep up it. They're on, they're off, wait only on steel and alum, Wait auto co and farmers are mad, ok they're exempt for a Month. Now do lumber! Oops can't build homes, drop those. It is a circus of dancing bears and clowns.
