And lemme guess what we’ll hear in the next couple of weeks or months:
“I’ve made the best deals with Canada and Mexico. They’ve been rude and uncooperative in helping us secure the borders, but now look, they had to.”
And then there’d be the the suckers and ass-kissers:
“Fentanyl’s not a thing anymore in the USA because of Trump.” (says a person who lives in a neighbourhood never affected by fentanyl abuse)
“President Trump has made our country more secure than ever, preventing illegal immigrants and drugs coming in from Canada and Mexico, while making them pay for it.” (vixen news or something)
“Illegal immigration was at an all time low under President Trump.” (says a person who’s never looked at the stats)
Given what was actually realized, Trump did not have to play coy and use tariffs as threats, and it would’ve been a rather easy call to ask for what he wanted. He’s essentially sent US allies on a wild episode to essentially bully them to show off his regained powers.
Oh, and of course he only “pauses” the damn thing. He could re-use it after all. Classic bully behaviour.
