Then why was Canada also threatened with the same tariffs?
If Trump solely goes after Mexico, he gets hit with picking on poor, brown Mexico. Good or bad, Canada could be a distraction. Challenging friend, neighbor and adversary alike can be deception on some level.

It's not obvious to me that this was part of the landscape on this.

This was just Trump being dumb, senile and hyper aggressive.

If this was all done because Trump hated Justin, why were the same threats made against the EU?
Follow the wider reach of all this global trade rhetoric. By the way, you said Trump was hyper aggressive. Then why wouldn't some of Trump's demeanor and actions with Trudeau be petty and personal?

The Trump Administration's stated goal is to reorganize the global trade order. The U.S. can't be the consumer of last resort for the global economy at this magnitude indefinitely. I'm not defending Trump and his antics per se. I'm just trying to look at the bigger picture on global trade. They have been my personal views long before Trump.

Trump will be massively criticized every step of the way on trade. If he stands up to China's unbalanced trade, he will still be criticized.
You know Americans need their cheap stuff. I just bought something today that used to come from China. It was made in Vietnam. In my opinion, that's a little bit of progress.

One cult follower calling out another cult follower.
You didn't even notice when you became part of the same team.

Though here in Ontario, our own leader is also apparently a member of that cult.

Not surprising, as even her husband Dumb DOFO said this after Trump had won the elections:

Ford seen on video saying he was '100% happy' Trump won U.S. election — until tariff threat
Ontario paused retaliatory measures to U.S. tariffs Monday after Trump delayed them by 30 days

Seeing as he's the leader of the cult then he is not a follower. The other thing is that he doesn't actually believe half of the things he says. He knows he's playing the tDSers and laughing at them all the way to the bank/White House, for believing everything. It's like when he said that "his followers would support him even if he shot a man on 5th Ave". So he is not a tDSer.

If you are going to conduct a clinical psychology study, you can not bias your work by excluding a subject simply because you voted for him.
I believe that I am quite objective and do not display much bias. Trudeau in know way has a cult. TBH, I hardly follow Canadian politics. I don't even think that I even voted in the last couple of elections.

i can not figure out your response because of the quotes

I may have edited it after you saw it. Try this.

hmm
you were talking about those afflicted with trump Devotee Syndrome.
but not about Trump, hmm
Exactly. trump, unlike his followers, is not a fool. There are times that he displays ignorance, but he is nobody's fool.

would you not agree Trumps biggest fan is Trump ? most narcissists are their own biggest fan
would you not agree that Trump has trump Devotee Syndrome?
So he is a tDSers, A tDSer to the max.
Seeing as he's the leader of the cult then he is not a follower. Most famous, successful people like billionaires, athletes, rock stars, movie stars have huge egos. That proves nothing. They are still is not a cult leader who has 80 million sheep ready to do his bidding and give up their free will. The other thing is that he doesn't actually believe half of the things he says. He knows he's playing the tDSers and laughing at them all the way to the bank/White House, for believing everything. It's like when he said that "his followers would support him even if he shot a man on 5th Ave". So he is not a tDSer.

But now Dumb DOFO desperately tries to downplay his remarks about Trump:

Doug Ford downplays hot mic comments saying he was pleased Trump won


What a clown!!

Only a few days into Duck Donalds rule and we are dealing with tariffs

WTF about the auto industry? as they send parts across the borders daily to build cars.

Imagine you are a small business trying to survive the stress of Trumps nonsense

We got 4 more years left of this rapist

Latest news is he is mad because no usa banks are open in Canada
so they can launder mafia money like TD did in the usa

What next? There will be no end to this misery

how can i be stumped when you did not answer the question ?
You do not mess with logic very often do you ?

Again
You want to turn of the gas to the USA
What do you expect would happen next ?


Not without an election it wont be
Trudeau will be out of other peoples money by then and would have to reconvene Parliament


Yes Trump is not a nice neighbour , he is a bad man , he is mean, nasty and vindictive , he likely never played hockey and probably does not like Tim Hortons.
We know all that

Again
You want to turn of the gas to the USA
What do you expect would happen next ?
How's this for logic? No need to shut the gas off. Trump folded. 😁😁😁

Trump Folded. You should have jumped in this thread yesterday. You will not walk around this.

WATCH: As she left RFK JR’s
@RobertKennedyJr
hearing today, Elizabeth Warren
@SenWarren
lied to
@LoomerUnleashed

@TheCharlesDowns
, saying, “I don’t take contributions from big Pharma executives, I don’t take any corporate PAC money, and you and your allies already know that.” Warren was responding to our question asking, “Is your acceptance of $5.2 million from the Big Pharma industry since 2020 the reason why you don’t want RFK JR suing big Pharma?” Records show that Senator Warren has taken over $5.2 million from Big Pharma and the medical industrial complex since 2020.
