Funny thing though, tires and fake leather are made from oil, as is PVC and hair spray. The list goes on, and the USA relies on Canada for millions of barrels of oil per day. If the USA wants to make-local, the country has to have a global supply of all parts and components. It doesn't. The USA needs Canadian oil to thrive.
Importing cheap in the 1960s was stamped "Made in China". Does Trump want the population to return to "Made in China" quality while the elite skirt across the top like Putin and little rocket?
That’s the second time you have claimed the US depends on Canadian Oil. That’s ridiculous. The US is now exporting oil because we produce so much. Canada subsidizes their oil and just Nationalized their pipelines. Canada does not have enough refining capability, so they ship oil to the US to get it refined.

We subsidize our oil companies also. In a free market that does not get done. When do you suppose Trump will argue to end that?
We need more national embarrassments like Trump going forward to keep the United States economy strong and the United States unemployment rate at historic lows.
Trump is destroying relationships with allies and trying to build relationships with countries he doesn't understand (e.g.: Russia, North Korea).
Trump is making noise about extending the 6 month termination clause in NAFTA to 5 years sunshine clause while arguing that he wants an option to renegotiate. He already has an option to renegotiate every 6 months, so yes Asians will view him as a gibberish speaking buffoon. Plan to lose the deal.
Termination means the USA is out of NAFTA, that 6 months has already been activated - the clock is ticking.
His offer was “I stop the Termination” and we agree on a 5 year deal that is up for change every 5 years.
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.
Actually, there wasn't a Korean conflict during WWII other than the Japanese invasion of Korea. As far as Putin, the Soviet Union was on the same side of the war as we were. You might want to beef up a little bit on your basic history. I'm willing to bet WWII veterans are more insulted by you not knowing the basic history about the war they fought in than anything Trump is currently doing.
As it said in the OP's article... we aren't the world's piggy bank anymore.
I don't see what's wrong with taking a stand.
Now I can understand being put off on Trump's method of communicating his displeasure... but that's who he is. It's such a drastic change from having US leaders put on a smile and give away the store, that they don't know how to deal with him.
Exactly. Take a look at the various reports in the days before this G-7 meeting. America pays 270% tariff on our dairy products....Canada pays none for exporting theirs to the U.S.
That is stupid no matter how you interpret it. Get over your anger at President just because he exists....and give some rational, logical thought to why he is trying to change things for the better for the U.S.

Trump standing up for the US = "Trump is an embarrassment to the US"
