Trump warns Canada, Mexico tariffs are coming on Saturday

[mydoglovesme@lemmy.world]

Let’s talk about that summertime electricity from the north. Can Canada turn that off?

[not_that_guy05@lemmy.world]

As an American, I support the effort Canada and Mexico will do to fight back.

[not_that_guy05@lemmy.world]

Guys I hope people haven't forgotten that the trump admin changed NAFTA when they were in previous term.

We are in this "unfair slump" because they can't even do a deal right.

WTF was it, something something art of the deal or something?

He will tank the US just like he tanked all his businesses.

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

he's not a business man.

he's a liquidator.

[foggenbooty@lemmy.world]

I know, it's crazy how his supporters don't put two and two together. HE MADE THE TRADE DEAL HE'S SUPPOSEDLY GETTING SHAFTED ON!

[drfistington@lemmy.world]

He's a Russian asset, and a traitor

[not_that_guy05@lemmy.world]

The bestest I hear.

[xanthobilly@lemmy.world]

More like money launderer.

Neat the power to the us gets shut off 6 hrs after the announcement

[slopppyengineer@lemmy.world]

He really wants to pump up China's export to Mexico and Canada. Just helping his buddy Xi out.

[lifeinmultiplechoice@lemmy.world]

I assume this is referring to his "Who knew healthcare could be complicated" comment 8 years ago that we have yet to hear his plan for after promising one in two weeks

"We don't need the products that they have but we might not tax oil coming from Canada... Because... We... Eeeh... Don't need it?"

[kecessa@sh.itjust.works]

Trump is considering not taxing oil but it would be very funny if Canada decided to tax the all oil exports to the US as a fuck you to Trump...

[kecessa@sh.itjust.works]

Oh don't worry, it's on the table, funny that this shit is happening not long after Quebec started exporting electricity to the US only to realize they should have kept that capacity for themselves because demand is only increasing... The problem might just solve itself!

[lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca]

Sort of. As I understand it, theres a pretty specific weight/grade/thickness of oil that can be refined into products. Most of the US oil is too thin. Most Canada oil is too thick. So we mix the two and viola!

It'd be nice if someone in Canada would build a refinery here. But then we'd have to import thin oil to mix with.

[thisphuckinguy@lemmy.world]

Fuck this guy

[serinus@lemmy.world]

Those Biden "I did that" sticker on gas pumps are gonna look a hell of a lot different in hindsight.

[werefreeatlast@lemmy.world]

That rhymes!

Trump is a ruzzian asset

And a traitor

Trump is a liquidator!

[obstreperouscanadian@lemmy.ca]

Thanks for the reminder that I need eggs this weekend. They're like $4 CAD a dozen here.

[obstreperouscanadian@lemmy.ca]

Same here. Personally, I'm also going to buy as little from the US as I can for the next while. Same as last time.
