Then is not free trade...you can't put a 270% tariff on our products and call it protection and then cry and complain when we do it to your products coming in our country.
What is Trump supposed to tell our farmers? "sorry folks, Canada only has 35 million people so they get special treatment over you, sucks to be you...by the way, vote for me in 2020, I broke my promises"....
Well Trump had no problem insulting one of our largest dairy customers - Mexico. An enterprising country would be buying a lot of cows right now and tell U.S. farmers to go pound sand just because Trump seems to think he's the only person that matters.
America’s $1.2 Billion Mexico Milk Trade Is Now at Risk
The biggest U.S. dairy importer is talking with New Zealand and buying more from the EU. Guess why.

U.S. dairy exports to Canada are 5 TIMES HIGHER than dairy imports from Canada. Do you really think dairy farmers would be happy to see that trade disappear due to Trump?
Once the G-6 figure out how to work around the U.S., it's going to be a challenge to repair the damage. And unfortunately, I feel like if any tragedy happened to the U.S., Trump's created so much ill will, there would not be a lot of sympathy.
Another proud moment for Trump. I did not vote for him, bu he shows his stuff. He does not need or want a joint communique with countries that have for centuries shed people to the United States. He does not tke a supplicant posture, unlike his predecessor.
Now on to Singapore and more greatness for our country!
Trump smashed Trudeau's hand in the cookie jar, in his own crib no less, then set sail for Singapore, where he'll stave off a plan to blow us all up, but the liberal lefty Democrats would rather us all blow up and go broke doing it than to have to thank Trump for preventing it.
All in a day's work.

it appears forgotten that a trade agreement is a contract. our trading partners have long since broken their end of the bargain --we looked the other way in the interest of "global economy promotion"
mr trump has a business sense of--- what is a contract.
Trade agreements are signed by its participants trump is now tearing up all trade agreements making future trade agreements with the USA not worth the paper they are written on,and by default we may start to see the rest of the world carry on trade excluding America . An example of how it works =https://www.theguardian.com/australi...-in-snub-to-us

Good post. But actually I think Trump will pull a "Reykjavik" at this meeting, and then a non-appeasement deal will be cut.
Nonsense. You keep trying to push that red herring though.
It's very simple. Canada is abusing us via NAFTA. Our closest ally shouldn't be doing that. That's the insult, not Trump standing up to it. Justin refuses to even consider renegotiating or making a deal fair to both sides.
That means we're going to have to teach them the hard way. NAFTA is dead & tariffs will destroy Canada. Steel and auto manufacturing will relocate to the U.S. Justin thought Trump was bluffing. It won't be long until Justin sees the light & decides bi-lateral negotiations are a good idea.
Trump said it at G7. Wants no tariff. No subsidies. Pure fee trade.
Does being a total assh--- to our allies rise to a "high crime and misdemeanor"? I think it does.
Trump is friendlier with Putin and Kim Jong Un than he is with our European allies. What an insult to our WWII veterans.
Trump is the single biggest embarrassment in the history of this nation, bar none.
What a crock.... "Hold you friends close but your Enemies closer" is real....
