Trump pauses tariffs on Canada for at least 30 days, Trudeau says

[lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works]

Actually... As an American, I can also prioritize Canadian goods, I'm guessing. Maybe we can do both, from both sides of things?

[lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works]

Literally do that if you can buy Canadian instead.

He... Never had any credibility? Everybody knows Trump doesn't understand anything, and all his decisions are fed to him by handlers/oligarchs/lobbyists.

[flashmobofone@lemmy.world]

I'm pretty sure it is.

Trump only really manages good things by accident, but in my view, it's objectively a good thing seeing Non-US countries committing more to their own security.

[foggenbooty@lemmy.world]

Yup, my understanding is that Mexico's "deal" was the same. They'd already made those commitments very early on in the "negotiations".

This whole ease off of tarrifs has just been Trump backing down and announcing the things he already had. You can never lose when every loss is a win.

Moving all my data and hosting shit to euro-socialist countries. Tired of this doge and orange pony show.

What exactly is the point of this? By buying foreign products, you pay the US government in whatever import tariff as part of the cost. I'd rather support domestic American businesses over the US government.

What's the point of... what? Boycotting American products? I didn't say I was starting an immediate total cut-off of all of them. Our current stupid government just inspires the desire to this or something meaningful...
