I thought the tariffs were about fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?
“… Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again,” Trump said.
By his own words, he has just shown his big lie - his previous border excuses as the reason for trashing his trade agreements which are taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy.
No no, it’ll make AMERICA (Trump’s America, the billionaire and multimillionaire class) wealthier. That’s what they want. The entire idea is to effectively crush whatever little middle class is left, and make the lower class dependent upon the whims of the aristocrats like him.
Basically, we’re rapidly sliding back towards feudalism, with us as the serfs.
