A day after offering Canada a one-month reprieve on punishing nearly across-the-board 25% tariffs, President Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs as soon as Friday on Canadian lumber and dairy products.

Dum-Dum doubles down on the dumb.

“The market is having trouble digesting the multidimensional chess that Trump and his team are playing,” said Michael Block, market strategist at Third Seven Capital. “This multidimensional chess game is not going well for the grand master. There may be a method to the madness. He might be trying to confuse world leaders. But the market is saying stop confusing us. we don’t like this.”

Trump a grand master? This is not a game of multidimensional chess with some grand master this is a cat and a laser pointer.

There may be a method to the madness.

Or is may simply be madness.

I know where my bet goes.

No kidding. Its so apparent that trump thought the threats of a tarrif would make the world kneel, once we started pushing back he panicked. Now he’s trying one thing after another to make it work and it keeps blowing up in his face. He cant admit fault or back down. He’s getting desperate.

They know. It’s just a way to say that Trump is dumb behind the curtains of a compliment. The guy is fluent in corporate speak

The benefit of doubt is going too far for the president felon
