President Donald Trump is delivering an address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday as he forges ahead with enacting his domestic and foreign policy agenda. Follow here for the latest live news updates and watch the speech live.
I thought the reason for trashing trade agreements and taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy with extreme tariffs was because of fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?
Apparently not, says Trump, from his speech at Congress tonight: “… Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again”.
Thank you. Whenever I watch the American news, the only comments being made are about how Americans will survive the tariff war and be fine. And then how Trudeau should watch his words because canada “has no cards”. No consideration is given to the destruction of the Canadian people and its economy, or any ownership taken for the fact that they just trashed the trade agreements under false pretences. I know there are good Americans out there, but why aren’t more speaking up loudly?
It’s so clearly a pressure tactic to strangle the canadian economy in an effort to annex it for USA and Russia.
As an American I hope that Canada will stay strong and stand up to him. Someone needs to- there is no one in the US willing so do so except Bernie and he’s 84. Godspeed and good luck
We ALL have to make an effort to push back on Trump, or we’re ALL sailing off this flat earth on a burning Russian ship.
