... Trump referred to Canada as "a very difficult country to trade with" ...

I'd proffer that Canada is a very easy country to trade with, but that it is not an easy company to try to boss around, as seems to be Pres Trump's deal-making style.

Canada beat Dummkopf Trumpf to the punch. They began Trump-proofing their country under PM Mark Carney and they are ahead of schedule.

Taco Trump is more like the Fart of the Deal these days; everything he touches turns to whatever that is in his diaper.

All these actions are Project 25-based Fascism designed to support billionaire oligarchs, just as it was in Germany in the 1930's by their Industrialists.

And it will have the same results.

Yup.

As evidenced by both NAFTA and USMCA treaties.

So, what's the problem with the current Trump admin?

Senility?

Remember those 90 deals in 90 days? The press will remind the administration for much of the coming weeks. And as for the Big Boneheaded Deal, well many on The Hill will forget about it over Independence Day weekend, just as most have forgotten about all things Doge ...
