United States President Donald Trump signed three executive orders on Saturday imposing tariffs of 25% on all goods from Mexico and Canada, the New York Times reported. Trump imposed a 10% tariff on Canadian oil exports, as well as a 10% tariff on items from China. He is imposing the tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. They are scheduled to go into effect on Tuesday.

Update: Trade war has begun as of March 4, 2025.

Am dum, explain how this helps anyone
In the long run it's Trump using america's economy as the metaphorical big stick to tell Castro Jr. to knock it the fuck off and tighten border security on his end. Castro Jr. thinking he is wearing the big pants is trying to use a much smaller stick to get America to back down.
 
Trump's path to victory
  • Buck break Canada's economy
  • Turn Canada's people against their government
  • Get Canada's leadership to agree to terms favorable to the United States
  • If he can't achieve his goals in office, get Vance elected to carry on the trade war for the next four years
Canada's path to victory
  • Turn America's people against Trump
  • Getting rid of all the Pajeets and bringing the cost of living down
  • Toughing out the next four years and somehow getting a Democrat elected
  • Join BRICS (thus becoming BRICCS) and somehow make up all trade deficits with the United States
 
TDS has gotten so flagarant that ree-ing retards, despite being obessed with this man for a decade, can't even understand that this is just another page in Trump's playbook. He's done it in real estate, he's done it in business, he even did it to a lesser extent in his first term. This is classic anchoring/brinkmanship. Give me an updoot in a few months when Canadians and faggot redditors are smugposting that they called Drumpf's bluff and got him to back down and only have to pay a 10% tariff. Take that, chuds.
 
Progressives on twitter and reddit actually think Mexico a failed state with a GDP lower than Alabama is going to defeat the U.S in a trade war.

:stress:
Reminder that even the poorest state in the US outperforms the most successful provence in Canada as well. People underestimate that there's a reason we're #1 on the global stage.
 
The height of delusion for this canucky government to think it has any power to counter-tariff when it's has run the economy into the ground for a decade is the purest comedy. There's no leverage here, the head fool has spent a decade sabotaging the entire economic engine of the country and now he wants to weaponize it? Instead of what, working on border security because it's letting shit through like a sieve?
