Trump threatens, then reverses, new Canadian tariffs​

https://www.axios.com/2025/03/11/trump-tariffs-canada-steel-aluminum

Why do only post part of what happened? Ontario threatened to place a 25% tariff on electricity sold to three states, Trump responded by increasing the tariffs on steel and aluminum from 25% to 50%. Ontario folded today, with Trump putting the tariffs back to their original increase. Carrot and stick.

And the tariffs help who exactly? Trump already stated he's not above nosediving the economy to do whatever comes next. It certainly won't help the American public.

Why only post part of what happened? Ontario threatened to place a 25% tariff on electricity because Trump vowed to implement tariffs on Canadian goods first. Trump started this entire trade war because he doesn't understand basic economics, even at a grade school level and he's surrounded by idiotic yes men who are too afraid to tell him he's an idiot.

Or worse, he does understand it and doesn't care because he, nor any of his cronies, will be affected by it.

Australia now next on the list of Trump victims.

Caleb Ragland, a soybean farmer in Magnolia, Ky., voted for President Donald Trump in 2016, 2020 and 2024.

This isn’t the first time farmers have had to deal with new tariffs. Back in Trump’s first term, the trade war with China in 2018 — a time when Ragland said the agricultural economy was “in a much better place than it is right now” — cost the U.S. agriculture industry more than $27 billion, and soybeans made up virtually 71% of annualized losses.

That trade war has caused lasting damage. To this day, the U.S. has yet to fully recover its loss in market share of soybean exports to China, the world’s number one buyer of the commodity, according to the ASA.

And of course, the rumors that anyone attacking a Tesla dealership should be treated like a domestic terrorist.

Get caught vandalizing a Tesla dealership = domestic terrorist.

Get caught storming the Capitol, during which 5 died and over 100 police were injured = A True Patriot.

Yep. 🙃.

Next up: Elon tries to take legal action against any Gran Turismo 7 footage from players that makes Tesla look bad, claiming its an act of inciting treason.

My favorite one was how he accused Japan of spending the last uh... 35 years having their economy being in the toilet and their currency super weak just to get a leg up on the US; implying that all Japan needed to do to avoid his wrath was just make their money more valuable.

Donald Trump said he is buying a “brand new Tesla” and blamed “Radical Left Lunatics” for “illegally” boycotting Elon Musk’s electric vehicle company. The announcement came a day after Tesla suffered its worst share price fall in nearly five years.

Illegally boycotting, lol. Just like how all those companies were illegally boycotting choosing not to advertise on Twitter & Musk was telling them to go **** themselves.

Yep.

Mango Unchained complaining about why do we have to protect Japan & they don't have to protect us showcasing once again that no one in his administration paid attention in high school history classes. We dismantled their military after WWII & disallowed them from foreign operations, we made the treaty that says we will protect them in return for allowing us to have a presence in Asia.

What do the insecure Ferd and Jeemsy pickup blokes think about Trump buying what was, until about two seconds ago, the state car of Commiefornia?

They will be affected by it. Positively. Knowing the news of these tariffs will bomb the markets, they'll all buy stocks low knowing he'll drop the tariffs again and the market will bounce back and they'll all make a tidy profit.
