No doubt, but if you think that is going to last under all this uncertainty and chaos, I have a bridge to sell you. The world is too connected now for the US to go it alone, and the people who think it can are living in an alternate reality. Sooner or later, the rest of the world is going to turn its back on us, and when they do, we will have only our ignorance and pompous nationalism to blame.
Nonsense. This is the same mentality that said Trump would lose in a landslide, that the stock market would crash if he became president, that taxes would go up on the middle class if he cut taxes, that unemployment would go up, things would get worse for minorities, that he was going to get us into WW3 with NoKo, that ISIS couldn't be defeated & that a blue tsunami was going to wipe out the GOP in the midterms when they were up by 17 points.
The stock market is stable and will stay stable because there is no uncertainty. Invest in American based corporations, or corporations smart enough to invest in America & you'll make money. The idea that the U.S. has to sacrifice it's middle class in order to placate the world is cowardly. The rest of the world is never going to turn it's back on the U.S. We are the prize or all prizes of all consumer markets & with our economy roaring, wages up & people having more money, we only become that much more attractive.
I imagine this the very 1st time ANYBODY talked to Trudeau this way....Bravo Mr. President. Knock him off his white horse.
For too long they have been used to calling US presidents names and be thanked for it. Bush was treated and called all sorts of names but he had to be a diplomat and take it on the chin. The party is over.

Agreed. Like Trump said, Justin was meek and mild face-to-face, then found some courage once Trump was on the plane. Justin couldn't say any of that stuff top his face. No problem, Trump just tweeted out he's looking at 25% import on car imports now. Coincidentally (ahem), Trump met with Abe of Japan all week. Watch Japan agree to new trade deals and agree to move production of some of their auto manufacturing to the U.S. Is there any reason for Japan to keep their plants open in Canada, if they have to pay a tariff to import to the U.S.? No. Instead they'll close those plants and expand in the U.S. All because Justin was greedy and refused to even discuss closing the loophole in NAFTA that's crushed our manufacturing and middle class.
Stay tuned July 1. The USA has initiated a trade war such that Canada, Mexico and the EU have no alternative except to retaliate with tariffs.
It's Trump's war. Canadians don't speak gibberish so they can't make sense of what he's on about, but they will respond to the USA labeling Canada as a security threat and initiating a trade war.
"President Trump is targeting the dairy sector because he wants to dump U.S. dairy into Canada," Lampron told The Canadian Press, adding that Canada imports five times more dairy from the U.S. than it exports.
"President Trump wants nothing less than wiping out Canadian dairy farming."
Of course he would say that. He is hiding behind 270% Canadian tariffs. And all you who have just discovered how awful tariffs are, why aren't you speaking against Canadian tariffs? Stand up for your country for once.
And this s none other Schumer speaking before Trump came on the scene.
“Canada, when it comes to dairy, acts like China when it comes to trade,” Schumer told hard-pressed farmers in upstate New York. “They’re unfair. They put up barriers. They treat us bad.”
