Summary
The White House claims Canada has “misunderstood” Trump’s new 25% tariffs as a trade war, while Mexico is cooperating.
Trump justified the tariffs by citing trade imbalances, illegal immigration, and fentanyl trafficking.
Canadian officials view the move as an economic attack, while Trump insists it is a negotiation tactic.
Negotiation tactic for what? Mfer didn’t state any reason for them from what I’ve read. There doesn’t seem to be anything to negotiate except for a problem he knowingly created.
That’s been the conservative MO for decades: create a huge, super fucked up problem that would never exist if they didn’t force it into being, and then sell you the solution to it.
