Thanks to the SCOTUS, the worst Trump can do now is a 15% tariff which expires in 150 days. So Canada must not allow permanent tariff to be a part of any new deal. We should stand firm. No deal is better than a bad deal
Tariffs are illegal

Did you actually listen to the entire clip?
If the middle-class and lower-class learned how to invest properly, it could help them too.
Problem is, many of them either dont know how to, or plainly cant be bothered
The point is, he's hurting the middle class and the lower class. Investing can go either way and some folks prefer working and putting extra funds into savings.

Let's try again and hopefully make you see the light so you can smell the fresh air!! I know you won't read the entire article so I pulled out some of the important tidbits. You're Welcome.
"The deteriorating state of the country’s fiscal balance threatens to extinguish the benefits of America’s strong economy. Under current policies, general government debt—the measure of how much more the country is spending than taking in—could hit 140% of GDP in the next five years, according to the IMF, possibly more than $50 trillion. The agency noted a troubling paradox in recent policy shifts. While tax and spending changes legislated mostly through the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act last year are expected to modestly boost economic activity this year and next, they’ll be overshadowed by increased spending and lower tax revenue that continue to push federal debt higher.
Trump has framed his tariffs as a key measure to bring in more revenue and reduce the deficit, but Georgieva implicitly pushed back against that narrative. She called U.S. tariffs a “headwind to even stronger growth” that dragged down productivity. In the story of a strong U.S. economy, “we could have seen more of the good news” without the penalizing effect of tariffs, she said."
" The IMF calculated the deficit to be 5.9% of GDP last year, and argued that lowering it to that target would require significant spending cuts and increases in government revenues. Much of the IMF’s policy prescription went against the Trump administration’s stated agenda of sweeping tariffs and reduced immigration flows. The agency recommended replacing tariffs with a destination-based consumption tax similar to VAT—a type of tax borne by consumers that tends to have a neutral impact on trade; a significant restructuring of expensive programs including Medicare and Social Security; and implementing a skills-based immigration system to keep the labor market competitive. "
Go get laid or something, @squeezer.
Nobody gives a shit about your tariff whining.
Even CNN has given up
LMAO, The Supreme Court shut him down and he's now is going to be shut down by Congress. Phil, are you into the 24 already or are you just MAD again because you can't handle the truth? Remember, watch your blood pressure!!!
That's as close as you'll get to Phil admitting he was wrong.
Now he just wants to move and and pretend he hasn't been pushing tariffs for a year.
No, much of the middle class is struggling to pay their rent, mortgages and food. About 80% of investments are owned by the wealthiest. The market has been great for the wealthy who can afford to invest. It is based on rapid earnings growth by mostly the largest companies, benefiting from massive tax cuts like 100% write-offs vs. depreciation, lower rates, and many ways to manipulate global earnings to avoid taxes, which increase their profits.
They also benefit more from 3% inflation and are largely passing on the tariff tax to consumers or those they sell to.
When the middle class is facing increasing evictions and foreclosures, don't blame them for not investing when feeding the family is more important.
