'Cause I don't believe it.
There's no trade war. Haven't you got that yet. The threat of tariffs had nothing to do with trade. Trade was just the threat.Some of Trump's actions may accidentally result in a net positive outcome, but this trade war with Mexico and Canada is not one of them. It does warn the rest of the world that he remains volatile and highly irrational.
They are falling in line.
Keep the skeer on them....Keep on winning and working for America.
Fake crisis. Fake solution.Trump should demand that Trudeau take down his pants and let him f*** him up the ass on international television.
Not in a gay way, mind you. But rather -- LIKE A VIKING.

Why is it a fail from an economic and diplomatic perspective?Well if the ends justifies the means, this is a win.
From a diplomatic and economic perspective, it's a fail.
Half empty or half full?
Again, some of his boldness will result in much needed changes. I'll concede this to him.
It has always been about border security. The US asked both nations to halt the flow of fentanyl and undocumented people crossing into our nation.It was less about trade and all about border security.
That's what Trump promised America, that is what he is delivering.

Illegal Immigration and Fentanyl at the U.S. Northern and Southwest Borders - FactCheck.org
In recent remarks to the press, President Donald Trump restated his intention to impose 25% tariffs on U.S. imports from Mexico and Canada as early as Feb. 1. His reasoning: "vast" illegal immigration and "massive" amounts of fentanyl coming to the U.S. from those countries. But Trump drew a...www.factcheck.org
Obviously the numbers are small compared to Mexico. But, with Trump shutting down Mexico crossings, 97% so far, Canada will be the next likely area for people to get to and come in to the U.S. It will be more difficult except for the Chinese to bring Fentanyl in. Funny how when Trump says something and to the left they make a big deal about it. But, with Biden and his dementia they never said a word. They just kept telling us how smart Biden was and how healthy and hardworking he was. What a joke. Trump is doing the right thing to also balance the trade deficit as well.
Hours before 25% tariffs on Canada were set to take effect, the country's prime minister said the U.S. and its northern neighbor have reached an agreement to delay the import taxes.
President Donald Trump confirmed the deal later in a post on Truth Social.
"I am very pleased with this initial outcome, and the Tariffs announced on Saturday will be paused for a 30 day period to see whether or not a final Economic deal with Canada can be structured," Trump wrote.

In other words, Trump's bloviating bullcrap is about his bragging rights and nothing to do with what is good fr America or Americans who are being told to bend over and accept some pain
A. that 97% number cannot be real.
B. Most fentanyl comes in from China in shipping containers.
Problem is who can trust any version of any event that Trump puts out?

If you say so little shitty kittyF-off, Democrats were okay with telling Americans to accept some pain with sending our tax money to Ukraine.
Ant tariffs Trump proposes with Mexico will not do a thing to stop Americans from smuggling the Fenti and components into America.So, you think stopping fentanyl is irrational? That's what you said. And, getting Canada and Mexico to trade fairly and eliminate trade deficits is irrational? Nothing accidental about it. I have no idea why you think making sure the strongest nation on earth remains strong is volatile and irrational. Biden spawned threats from evil nations around the world with his stupid reversal on what Trump had established and you think that's irrational? You are the irrational one.
Creepy's algorithm doesn't allow for research."MEXICO
Mexican TCOs are producing increased quantities of fentanyl and illicit fentanyl-containing tablets, with
some TCOs using increasingly sophisticated clandestine laboratories and processing methods (i.e.,
laboratory grade glassware, unregulated chemicals, and industrial size tablet presses). DEA, working in
conjunction with Mexican officials, has seized and dismantled numerous fentanyl pill pressing operations
and fentanyl synthesis laboratories in 2018 and 2019, highlighting the role TCOs play in supplying the US
fentanyl market. Fentanyl is smuggled across the U.S.-Mexico border in low concentration, high-volume
loads, kilogram seizures often contain less than a 10 percent concentration of fentanyl.
TCOs are also increasingly producing wholesale quantities of illicit fentanyl pills and smuggling them into
the United States. In December 2018, Mexican officials in combination with DEA authorities seized an
illicit pill mill in Azcapotzalco, Mexico City. Law enforcement officials seized illicit fentanyl-laced oxycodone
M-30 pills, suspected fentanyl powder, precursor chemicals and multiple other items related to the
production of fentanyl-laced illicit pills. As with the Mexicali, Mexico fentanyl pill mill seized in September
2018, DEA reporting indicated the organization operating the pill mill in Mexico City is linked to the Sinaloa
Cartel.
DEA reporting continues to indicate the Sinaloa and the New Generation Jalisco (Cártel de Jalisco
Nueva Generación or CJNG) cartels are likely the primary trafficking groups responsible for smuggling
fentanyl into the United States from Mexico. To date, the fentanyl synthesis and fentanyl pill production
operations dismantled in Mexico have either occurred in territories controlled by these cartels or have
had involvement by members/associates of these cartels. In addition, these TCOs are known to control
the trafficking corridors in Mexico that connect to California and Arizona, indicating drugs passing through
these associated areas would need to be approved by these organizations."

You don't realize that Canada announced this on Dec 17th, 2024.
You think trump talked them into this, don't ya.
Unless, trump was really part of the $1.3 Billion plan in December, 2024.
Was trump, or is trump just finding out about this too.
Looks like trump got played.
No Trump is folding his tent. He clearly is looking for a way out.
