Summary
Donald Trump pledged to impose a 25% tariff on all products from Mexico and Canada on his first day in office, blaming them for failing to stop illegal drugs and immigration.
He also vowed to add a 10% tariff on Chinese goods until drug trafficking into the U.S. ceases.
Economists warn these tariffs could drive up consumer prices and inflation.
While violent crime has declined in recent years, Trump continues to link trade measures to border security and drug issues, echoing his first-term trade policies and immigration stance.

Has become
Yah, that’ll fix inflation, you fucking stable genius.
What a shithole country.
I’m pretty sure most of the drugs coming in from Canada are in the possession of seniors who can’t afford American medical care.
He doesn’t give a fuck. He will avoid prison and that is all that matters to him.
Oh I know. I was just pointing that out considering how many of them voted for him.
It seems pretty obvious that the plan is to deliberately destroy the US economy.
Makes one wonder who would benefit from that…

They’d just buy assets that others won’t be able to afford and hoard more
I think you misspelled “create buying opportunities for the oligarchs”
/s
And Canada’s and Mexico’s as well.
The orange asshole just doesn’t gaf about anyone but himself.
He should be first on the BBQ menu.
This will look just spectacular on my grocery bill. Prolly like 75% of my produce comes from Mexico right now.
Not to worry. All the farms in the US will pick up the slack thanks to all that plentiful cheap migrant labor. Oh, wait…
Wow. It sure is a good thing we still have domestic products that can compete with all of the imported goods from these major trade partners …right? Right?
its a good thing the US isn’t dependent on Canadian electricity or gas…
GM stocks are down 8% today.
Congratulations to all the auto workers union members who voted for Trump.
What does the price of imports have to do with illegal immigration? Do you think he even knows?
Adieu US economy.
I hope he does it. I really do. The quickest path to revolution is when people aren’t just vibe struggling, it’s when they’re literally starving because nobody can pay for enough calories to sustain themselves. The faster we get to that point, the faster we can fix all of America’s problems by deposing the oligarchs, rewriting the constitution to restore the guardrails of democracy and restructuring the government and the judiciary to serve the people and not corporations.
No balls, Trump, you fucking won’t. You’ll pussy out at the last minute or get bullied by another world leader with more gumption than you can muster.

The whirlpool logo looks too much like a halo to be a coincidence…surprised the pic doesn’t burst into flames
That looks like a ludicrously bad shop job. Also, Whirlpool appliance boxes are not printed in color like that.
And for anyone wondering, practically all of Whirlpool (and all the other “American” brands) refrigerators are made in Mexico. Just saying.
Looks like a don’t-buy-me sign to me.
