It's pretty funny, Canada and Mexico are free of a huge headache.

You could say they're... cutting out the middleman. 😉

It starts a ten year countdown. Ample time to chicken out, it's probably his idea of a negotiation tactic.

But this will set wheels in motion regardless. Canada will seek more reliable trade partners.

I can't help but think that killing the Canadian auto industry could end up being a net win, sonce the USA is going to be 10 years behind on EVs.

The United States is already 10 years behind on EV technology, this should be a nice extra nail in the coffin.

He's doing an excellent job of destroying America. I'm sure Putin is happy with his investment.

The orange parts of his face were there all along. It's the eyes, the deadness

Trump tired. Can't pay attention to no trade deal. Trump tired of everything and just wants a dirt nap.
