Trump introduces sanity to world trade with 200% tariffs

They are doing it strategically, that's the problem. Much like when Ontario was targetting Michigan for energy export tariffs. Canada is also talking about specifically targetting U.S states that Trump won. Trying to hurt him politically.

It is going to backfire.
Tariffs are going to bite the global economy in the ass. Trump will take everyone down with him.
 
Actually, The EU and many many other countries started it all with Tariffs and VAT's
long ago. We finally have a president who is tired of the US getting screwed.
Life can be a bitch at times, huh? :wink:
We had trade agreements negotiated with Europe and Canada. Europe had some tariffs on us and we had some tariffs on them.

The only people getting screwed with Trump's trade war are those with 401ks watching their portfolios dive and the price of goods rise.

The Wall Street Journal has called Trump's trade war the dumbest ever. It figures MAGAs would be in favor of it.

It will force U.S employers, who are the largest in the world; to build businesses in the U.S.

It will also force nations who have enjoyed an extended number of years with trade surpluses to give billions back to the U.S for the privilege of selling into the U.S. while facing tougher competition for that marketshare.

Europe has been excessively tariffing the world for decades, why are you now bearish on them as valid tools a country can employ?

Canada will lose this trade war.
Canada was going to lose without tariffs, we are a caste system de facto police that, bankrupting our nation, suppressing freedom and rewarding the lowest performers. We aren't built for the competitive economies of 2025, all Trump is doing is speeding up the process.

By the way, I first advised Canadian politicians of this eventuality 20 years ago. It seems I have better vision than some of the "experts".

No, it will not.

But do try to tell us that the Smoot-Hawley tariffs levied at the start of the Great Depression got us out of the depression.
 
Like all bullies trumpy doesnt react well when people stand up to him.
Funny how you ignore the long standing Quebecian 204% tariff.

Why is that tainty? Interfere with your Trump hate fest?
 

Its about time that a world leader stepped in to end the madness. Hail Donald !!
What this will do for Sancerre afficionados in the US is not clear.
The super rich will still be able to afford it so thats not going to be a problem.

The frogs are due a slap so this is timely. Maybe an EO renaming French fries is in order ? I cant think of a new name at the moment.
Where've you been Taint? Turdeau has had a 257% tariff on American dairy for some time. Please keep up.

OMG, you think Trump is the father of Tariffs? Trump is pushing back against them against the USA.

Globally, tariffs are very low. Every country has some tariffs on some products, including us. This isn’t “pushing back” since we do exactly what everyone else does.
 
Funny how you complain about a US tariff but no qualms over Canadian tariffs. Run along, your anti-American position has been noted.
You think we didn’t have any tariffs on Canadian goods before Trump started this trade war?
