Why is Canada letting dipshit pick and choose which industries he protects for political reasons. Canada should switch from the tariff method and put an export tax on everything.
I wasn’t referring to our select tariffs I was referring to the orange baboon being allowed to, by Canada’s lack of response, give relief to certain industries where a tariff would hurt the U.S… If we let him pick and choose without making all his constituents feel the pinch I think we’re giving him an easy win. Now I’m not entirely against Canada doing selective retaliation against mostly red states but I question the whole approach to tariffs at all. My preference would be for Canada to add an export tax. Appease trump by saying yeh, you’re right, we’ve been totally unfair to you (or something like that), so we’re going to tax all our exports to level the playing field. Then Canada keeps the money and trump can’t raise money through this approach to trade. Now I don’t discount that he would still have tariffs and so this would be a double hit to Canadian exports, but I’m curious how this would play out.

Because unlike the orange baboon, we have adults in charge and they are targeting specific things to hurt the states and minimize damage to us
