BREAKING: Trump Slaps Mexico and Canada With 25% Tariff to End Illegal Alien Invasion – Unveils Tough Plan to Halt China’s Fenta...
President Trump has unveiled a bold strategy to combat illegal immigration and the fentanyl crisis, announcing sweeping tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China.
Is Trump going to fix Canada's immigration nightmare as well?? And China going to learn again who's the strongest in the world!
I love him soooooo damn much!
The threat of tariffs is the stick. They will all fall in line
Trump is using their globalization against them with the tariffs. Tariffs are powerful and can be used for many non-market changes that you want countries and companies to make.
He's not even president yet.
You should see the amount of left wing dipshits losing it on social media over this…it’s beyond fucking hilarious
Trump's going to end up saving Canada in the long run. A proper technical recession is something we've refused to accept going on 20 years now.
In 2008, we got lucky off our oil sands. OPEC collapsed our oil sands and we sold Vancouver to the Chinese. Trump tried weening us off China money with calling on us to detain the Huawei princess. The Chinese wouldn't have us and we opened a fucking floodgate to go quantity over quality opening up our visa system as a permanent residency stream and selling that to literally millions of Indian, African, and Arab migrants.
Our whole system is just borrowing against houses (Home Equity Lines of Credit) to buy rental properties to pack with migrants. And something similar and adjacent with construction jobs to build towers for the same.
We've gone soft on drugs. Decriminalizing them so that dealers have an easy market. We decriminalized a lot of precursors and lab equipment and have some of the most sophisticated drug labs in the world. The proceeds of that get laundered for more easy money and multiplied at leverage when they're used as collateral for just more real estate that our government recklessly packs with migrant student workers.
Canada does not have the stomach to clean this up but will make big moves to save what little legitimate business still exists in Quebec and Ontario. If the choice is collapse either way and one of them lets us escape tariffs and hold onto our productive economy, we can rebuild. And maybe Trudeau decides he wants to stick the next guy with this and fucks off before April. If that happens, maybe our capital gains and carbon taxes back down and the Canadians who want to help rebuild won't get drowned.
Trump has exceeded expectations already.
I love this man... this is exactly what our country needs! We as American manufacturers will step up to fill the void created, but it certainly won't happen overnight. There are a lot of critical items that we don't make today at large scale simply because we can't be competitive at high volumes, but we have the skill and technology.
nah...
He shold make them pay a 1% tarrif on all goods crossing the border per illegal caught in the previous year.
It's a carrot and stick all in one
Well, I would do that, and we’re sitting down, and I was, somebody, we had Senator Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka was so, uh, impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that, because, look, child care is child care is. Couldn’t, you know, there’s something, you have to have it – in this country you have to have it.
But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to — but they’ll get used to it very quickly – and it’s not gonna stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Uh, those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care.
We’re gonna have – I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with, uh, the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country, because I have to stay with child care. I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth, but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just, uh, that I just told you about.
We’re gonna be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as child care, uh, is talked about as being expensive, it’s, relatively speaking, not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’ll be taking in. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people, but we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first. It’s about Make America Great Again, we have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation, so we’ll take care of it. Thank you. Very good question. Thank you.
Cuckoo......
I agree, its cuckoo!
The Economic Club of New York trustee who asked Donald Trump what he would do to alleviate the child care crisis in the U.S. later called the former president’s answer "incomprehensible at best."
Trump, speaking at an Economic Club forum Thursday, suggested to business leaders that his plans to increase tariffs on foreign imports would solve a host of seemingly unrelated challenges – including the rising cost of child care in the U.S.

Walmart just leveled with Americans: China won’t be paying for Trump’s tariffs, in all likelihood you will.
https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/walmart-warns-higher-prices-trump-implements-proposed-tariffs
Walmart warns of higher prices if Trump implements proposed tariffs NRF projected that potential tariffs could cost American consumers between $46B and $78B in annual spending power.
Tariffs will cause consumer prices of goods and services to increase. This is not as good as many are led to believe, yet another
"Mexico will pay for the wall" = "A tariff will end the fentanyl crisis"

TROLL ALERT!!!!
Noted!
We'll evaluate him and watch him
You'll love his pokeman video he posted 25 days ago...
Oh, I do love it! Kek!
I don't think so. Look, they got them up. I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard. But I think that they will. I think that energy is going to bring them down. I think a better supply chain is going to bring them down. You know, the supply chain is still broken. It's broken. You see it. You go out to the docks and you see all these containers. And I own property in California, in Palos Verdes. They're very nice. And I passed the docks, and I've been doing it for 20 years. I've never seen anything like it. You know, for 17 years, I saw containers and, you know, they'd come off and they'd be taken away—big areas, you know, you know, in that area, you know, where they have the big, the big ships coming in—big, the port. And I'd see this for years as I was out there inspecting property and things, because they own a lot in California. And I look down and I see containers that are, that are 12, 13, 14 containers. You wouldn't believe they can hold each other. It's like crazy. No, the supply chain is is broken. I think a very bad thing is this, what they're doing with the cars. I think they lost also because of cars. You know, there are a lot of reasons, but the car mandate is a disaster. The electric, the EV mandate.
You are a fucking retard is what you are. The United States up until 1913, paid all of its fucking bills using tariffs. It can do the same exact thing again. Get rid of income tax and tariffs don't hurt, period. Sit the fuck down dude.
To be fair: we could do that then because we were mostly self reliant. Prices of Chinese junk will be raised for sure, but we also probably dont need it.
That said we need this pain to bring manufacturing home or to decentralize chinese control. I can do without most chinese things.
When you watch a movie or news reel from the pre 80s eras, middle class people and maybe even poor people have better cloths (in material quality and construction) than we do today. Food was better. People were healthier.
Cheap Chinese sh1t obfuscates how poor we are. Wealthy people do not need to purchase made in China sh1t.
Yes, so true.
Getting rid of income taxes (FIRST) will make that pain worth it.
You can also choose what is eligible for tariffs and what isn't.
Trump could for example state that core tech products (silicon-based products, CPUs, GPUs, etc.) aren't eligible because there is no feasible way to get fabrication here in a reasonable amount of time.
Or, for example, Trump could set terms of an agreement e.g. they use a certain percentage of American labor-sourced materials for exemptions.
With the elimination of income tax, tariffs can be applied a lot of ways to drive better trade deals for us and pull some manufacturing back to the U.S.
It's a good idea..if the citizenry isn't fucked with the burden of income tax on top of them.
Agreed. I am for Tarrifs, but there is at least going to be some short term pain and we need to drive incentives to bring manufacturing back here to the U.S and alleviating tax burden would help survive it. Hopefully Trump has a handle on all of this so I am not too worried.
👆 This.
In 2017, when he was in the White House, Trump put a 9% tariff on imported washing machines. After that tariff was in place, the consumer price of washing machines rose 9%

Dumbass liberal economist doing what dumbass liberal economists do best.
Tariff’s absolutely work.
Tariffs work. I use tariffs every day. Get lost
Tariffs do work. They are needed, otherwise it’s all a race to the bottom and it all collapses anyways. Society requires artificial restrictions and limits to prevent bad actors from taking advantage. That narrative you believe has been pushed by bad actors with their own agenda to profit and or indirectly benefit from less or no tariffs.
