Canada Tariffs for YEARS on America:
Steel - 25% , Cars 25-%, Meat - 26%, HVAC - 25% , Vacuums - 35%, TV's - 45%, Aluminum - 45%, Copper -48%, Sausage - 69%, Chicken - 238%, Cheese - 245%, Milk - 270%, Butter - 298%
About time we use a 25% Tarrif on Canadian goods. They are Really going to be upset April 2nd when we match their tarrifs percent for percent. Treat others as you would like to be treated. The Golden Rule? Maybe Carney has heard of it?
To All Canadians:
This trade war and belittling of Canadians is absolute insanity and makes zero sense. Most importantly, I need every Canadian to know that despite our President's actions, Americans don't hate you—we have nothing but admiration for you. You truly are the nicest people on Earth.
I don't have a single friend or acquaintance—not one—who supports our @POTUS imposing these ridiculous tariffs on you. Your border isn't leaky, and the tiny amount of fentanyl coming through Canada is a pathetic excuse for this aggression.
Nobody—not even the president himself—can explain what "success" from these tariffs would actually look like. If he's trying to destroy your economy and force you to become the 51st state, it's beyond idiotic. You have your own national pride, and actions like this will only strengthen your identity (just like our president's new BFF, Putin, inadvertently strengthened Ukrainian identity by invading in 2014).
We absolutely don't want Canada to become our 51st state. You have your own unique and wonderful culture that deserves to be preserved. Besides, Americans can barely handle English—adding French as another national language to the mix would crash our reading comprehension even lower!
When you see Republican senators, congressmen, or Trump's cabinet members endorsing these tariffs, remember they're terrified of contradicting Trump. They must praise "dear leader" at least three times per interview or fail his loyalty test. I grew up in Soviet Russia, and trust me—they sound exactly like Soviet politicians fawning over Brezhnev during mandatory speeches.
I have friends across the political spectrum who agree and disagree with Trump's other policies, but I cannot find a single American who thinks these Canadian tariffs are fair or deserved. This point matters deeply because the madness of one man in the White House does not represent the hearts of everyday Americans.
Dear Canadians, we stand with you. We believe this trade war our president started is completely unfair and undeserved. If you choose not to visit us because of this, we understand—we'll travel north to you instead.
To my fellow Americans: please share this message to show Canadians that we love them and strongly oppose these senseless tariffs being imposed in our name.
“I know that these are dark days, dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust,” Mark Carney, next Prime Minister of CANADA!
Fabulous. Is this who we want to be?
Even NAM feels has to suck up to POTUS. zero chance they like what is going on. Tariffs are huge threat to US manufacturing. Where do you think our raw materials come from, NY? Chicago? Does your job depend on manufacturing?
Hot take- yes, it does.

Today’s action by Congress is a key step to eliminating the EPA's burdensome methane emissions fee. This unnecessary and counterproductive policy penalizes manufacturers critical to an all-of-the-above energy approach and finding innovative ways to control methane emissions.
The hardest part of this political thing for me is the spinning of BS and the absolute ignoring of actual facts. When did this deficit increase actually start? Get real people. You’re being sold. https://t.co/53IAjuQDPR
@kreegan99 Unfortunately, sanity and logic have zero influence right now. 🤣😂🤷🏻♀️🙏🏻 My fav right now: “ I didn’t know you were a Native American.” Them: “Uh, well, er, uh, ….. “ Me: “oh, so you are descendants of immigrants…….interesting.”
Credit to Jalen Hurts — tremendous lesson for kids out there, benched at halftime of the national title game for Tua, refuses to publicly pout, commits himself to working his ass off to get better. And now he’s a Super Bowl champion quarterback. Phenomenal comeback & resilience.
@Chris_arnade Exactly. In college I could not be forced to read anything more than Cliff Notes. Absolutely zero interest. Now, at 60, one of biggest regrets of my life that I did not pay attention. I live literally in Mark Twain country and I don’t know 5% of the important work he wrote.
trump has signed 100 executive orders on his first day in office. None of which lowers the cost of eggs, housing, or healthcare.
He did however, get himself $40,000,000,000 dollars richer in the last week. So there's that.
y'all got played.
