Nobody will trust a US treaty again,’ and Japan’s yen is now the new safe haven currency
He is not making America great again, not that it ever was. He has singlehande You really do not know the US economy and are instead spitting out empty talking points. Most Canadian exports are inputs used by American businesses in their own production – more so than with other trading partners. In plain language, the US takes the low cost inputs to make higher value outputs. This delivers a profit. If the USA has to replace those inputs with more expensive alternatives, the profits will decrease and/or the costs to consumers will increase. Therefore, disproportionate share of the negative tariff impacts on imports from Canada would be through the channel of business supply chains and productivity that would drive higher costs and inflationary pressures at the retail level. The USA has initiated a worldwide decoupling of everyone's economy from the USA. The impact won't be seen immediately, but it will be a shift with time as the rest of the world looks to transact with anyone other than the USA. You ignore the fact that the US domestic economy is mostly service based. You can't eat mortgages, and you can't build a shelter from serving processed. junk food at a Denny's. Service based economies do not create long term wealth for the population. The operators of the service firms gain, but not the nation. There is no intellectual capital creation. Only industry and technological innovation builds long term wealth. The USA is slashing R&D and eliminating government supported R&D. Other nations are doing the exact opposite. -

Donald and me at the bar.
I have the misfortune of occasional nightmares, but I think dreaming of Donald Trump would be one of the worst that I would ever have. I'm very thankful that that's never happened. -

Could Trump's plan fail in a spectacular fashion?
I'm somewhat conflicted on this questiom. Decent pro-democracy, anti imperialism, anti Putin, anti oligarchy/autocracy people across the world are now boycotting USA products, tariffs or no tariffs. Should decent Americans do the same? Should we be actively buying NOT American? This gets into the government vs. the people. Is Russia Putin? I think largely so. Is the USA Trump? I think much less than Russia Putin. Even though Trump won, I think only a tiny minority voted for such insanity as helping Russia murder Ukrainian civilians and threatening to annex Canada. -

Hahaha, yeah, of course Pesky Putin always meddling with his imperialistic ambitions, this imperialistic ambitions he's sat on for a whole 20yrs... The worlds bully is the USA, however that was under previous war mongering administrations, so far Trump is the only president in my lifetime to actively seeking to end a war, he has already done far more than any career politician.- 1
