Never in a million years would I think that the United States would subject its people to a catastrophic event that is preventable. What president in his right mind would do such a thing?
The answer is no president, except Donald Trump.
He’s wanted to happen exactly what is happening. Chaos. He wants to declare emergencies just so that he can legally do what he wants to do, and that is to declare an emergency so that he can expand his tariffs legally, without the blessing of the United States Congress.
Keep in mind that what he is doing has been totally illegal up to this point, because the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES DOES NOT LEGALLY HAVE THE POWER TO INSTITUTE TARIFFS ON HIS OWN UNLESS THERE IS AN EMERGENCY. ONLY CONGRESS CAN GRANT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES THOSE POWERS. So Trump is creating his own emergency, affecting all Americans, so now he will continue to threaten Canada.
This morning at 9:15AM ET, Trump published the following Tweet on Truth Social…
Based on Ontario, Canada, placing a 25% Tariff on “Electricity” coming into the United States, I have instructed my Secretary of Commerce to add an ADDITIONAL 25% Tariff, to 50%, on all STEEL and ALUMINUM COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM CANADA, ONE OF THE HIGHEST TARIFFING NATIONS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. This will go into effect TOMORROW MORNING, March 12th. Also, Canada must immediately drop their Anti-American Farmer Tariff of 250% to 390% on various U.S. dairy products, which has long been considered outrageous. I will shortly be declaring a National Emergency on Electricity within the threatened area. This will allow the U.S. to quickly do what has to be done to alleviate this abusive threat from Canada. If other egregious, long time Tariffs are not likewise dropped by Canada, I will substantially increase, on April 2nd, the Tariffs on Cars coming into the U.S. which will, essentially, permanently shut down the automobile manufacturing business in Canada. Those cars can easily be made in the USA! Also, Canada pays very little for National Security, relying on the United States for military protection. We are subsidizing Canada to the tune of more than 200 Billion Dollars a year. WHY???? This cannot continue. The only thing that makes sense is for Canada to become our cherished Fifty First State. This would make all Tariffs, and everything else, totally disappear. Canadians’ taxes will be very substantially reduced, they will be more secure, militarily and otherwise, than ever before, there would no longer be a Northern Border problem, and the greatest and most powerful nation in the World will be bigger, better and stronger than ever – And Canada will be a big part of that. The artificial line of separation drawn many years ago will finally disappear, and we will have the safest and most beautiful Nation anywhere in the World – And your brilliant anthem “O Canada, “ will continue to play, but now representing a GREAT and POWERFUL StATE within the greatest Nation that the World has ever seen!
I can continue to criticize Donald Trump. I can continue to report what the world is experiencing with this lunatic. And I will. But everyone within this country of the United States of America now can clearly see what Trump’s goals are here. Everything Trump is doing has to do with a takeover of Canada, making it our 51st state. This is totally outrageous. Canada will not relinquish its freedom without a war. Trump has in effect announced a war on Canada. It is more than a trade war. It is quickly escalating into something that by ANY other president, would have never happened. Has he been coordinating this planned takeover with Russia? I can argue that he is. Putin is watching. He is watching our economy fall over a cliff, which is the biggest WIN Putin has ever had fall into his lap, thanks to our president and convicted felon, Donald J. Trump.
The markets are CRASHING, just as expected, down by another 500 points. The NASDAQ and S&P500 are crashing. A recession is on the way. Unfortunately, this is just the beginning of the story. But there is no sense now even trying to report what is happening in real time. The causes of our PAIN that we must bear is known. What is still not known is the ACTUAL effect of the pain caused by one callous man, bent on destroying America. I will continue to report stock market updates, but it’s not going to be pretty.
