"Since Donald Trump began his tariff threats against Canada and his ‘jokes’ about making Canada the 51st US state, I have not bought a single product originating in the US,” said Lynne Allardice, 78, a retired business owner from New Brunswick, Canada.

“Not a single lettuce leaf or piece of fruit. I have become an avid reader of labels and have adopted an ‘anywhere but the US’ policy when shopping. I will not visit the States while Trump remains in office, and most of the people I know have adopted the same policy.”"

    Yeah I don’t understand those people’s perspectives. For the last 80 years, the US has built a world that revolves around its currency, its military, its culture, benefiting from it all.

    Then you have brainwashed conservatives not realizing this fact, and somehow coming to the conclusion the US is this underdog, this taken advantage of nation. Who exactly is ripping the US off and how??
