    It is inane that one of the options is “just hold on for a few days and see what happens” and that it is a viable option at all. Government is in shambles.

      There’s only one thing businesses hate more than tariffs and that’s uncertainty. They would be happier with the tariffs being definite, than this maybe existing and maybe not existing on a almost daily basis.

      Because even if he gets rid of the tariffs, he’ll try this again in a few weeks once he’s forgotten about all of the push back and has randomly decided that Canada is still shipping drugs into the US. Because fentanyl can’t be made in the US, everyone knows that.

        He’s stupid but not that stupid. He doesn’t even care where any drug originated from. He surely slotted “hot-button drug name” into place and blamed Canada because he wants to put pressure on them.

        One of the few things in his entire life Donald has learned and been able to apply is the US Republican playbook for blame-throwing.

            I agree, perhaps I misspoke. It’s weird to call out that his understanding of the situation is wrong when he has no understanding of the situation at all and is uninterested in understanding.
