Good start. Except I would make it 100%. It won't take long for them to correct it. Both countries have huge trade surpluses with us.

Shape up you *******....

Absolutely

This is what a real President supposed to do in protecting his or her citizens

Yes!!!!

These are the type of painful but necessary steps that have to be taken to fix this country. We all have to pay in the form of higher prices until the markets correct themselves, but if we don't our children and grandchildren will be living in a full on socialist hellhole. 98% of Republicans in politics don't have the stomach for it. That's why it had to be Trump.

Lets be fair, make it 50%. One for me, one for you.

My guess is the tariffs won’t last long, or never happen. Trudeau is already folding.

To be clear, according to Trump the 25% tariffs will not be implemented, or if implemented will be removed, once Mexico and Canada stop the flow of illegal immigrants and fentanyl into the U.S.

In other words, @realDonaldTrump is going to use tariffs as a weapon to achieve economic and political outcomes which are in the best interest of America, fulfilling his America first policy.

This is a great way for Trump to effect foreign policy changes even before he takes office.

Remember, Trump has said enacting the tariff is not always necessary, but the THREAT of the tariff always is.

We can toss in "her" if and when that day ever gets here.

Americas appetite for drugs will ensure they don’t stop flowing.

They never have before.

They aren’t going to now.

The problem is the companies in the US will raise all the prices on us, and neither countries will do anything. We are gonna suffer paying higher prices for food, cloths, housing, cars, etc.

Temporary pain for long term gain.

Considering what Biden/Harris did to us from the start, I wouldn't get too wound up just yet.

Worth it.

I'd also pull all Canook military personnel out of NORAD. They are not capable to defend crap with the pansy-ass PM in charge. He is not our friend, making the country suspect. It is our freaking mountain, send the bastards back north of the border to ***** about how mean we were at the their weekly Timmy Horton's coffee super-terrific happy hour.

Let the bastards all choke on an overflowing sack of maple-syrup brined cocks. Canadia sucks balls.

Canada and Mexico would be useless if North America was ever invaded.

Tariffs are a tax resulting in higher prices, all other factors equal.

Enhancing national security is an acceptable reason for a tax and I hope a resurgent of American productivity (through DOGE and other means) will largely mitigate cost increases.

Our friends to the north and south merely have to do the right thing to avoid economic pain they will experience disproportionately compared to the US.

Finally, someone else shows that they know that iceberg up north should be called Canadia. If you are going to call your people Canadians then they come from Canadia. If you want to call them Canadans well OK, since they are from Canada, go for it.
