    Can you imagine - Canada's tariffs are now suspended for 30 days also!

    Just enough time for MAGA to misremember every detail about it ever having happened!

    Guess Trudeau gave in and will "escort" Melania on her whirlwind "visit" to all of Canada's provinces!

    She insisted apparently - guess she will slide down the Pacific Coastal waterway faucet that Trump opened from Seattle to Caulifornia into Gavin Newsome's DMs before a quick visit to Arhnold's when she is done.

    China better REALLY have something for Trump if they want to beat these "Trump tariffs".

    A visit from Melania probably won't do it.

    I'm sure a cool couple million in his Swiss bank account can defeat them!

    Well, now that the immigration invasion is over - maybe we will do a reverse British Invasion with Ted Nugent and Kid Rock!

    Trump is laughing that his shabby con still works on his silly marks.

    "I'll just babble about doing some fake tariffs, pretend I made someone concede something..... then I'll lie about what is actually happening and take credit for the fake reality! And these idiots will fall for it again!! It's amazing! "

    "Meanwhile I'll steal a whole lot more. :)"

    No it was simpler con than that!

    He lined his own pockets to the tune of tens of millions AND suckered these MAGA gimps once again, like he did with the "Wall Mexico Will Pay For, But Didn't".

    He's a weak sauce conman with no spine that speaks like a child so these simps can understand his caveman logic.

    He plays them like a fiddle and as soon as the checks cleared, he was on to the next grift.

    He actually makes them think that he owned the libs with this game he plays!

    The threat of tariffs is good leverage and part of the "Art of the Deal." Looks like Mexico will send 10,000 troops to the border to help prevent illegal immigrants and drugs from coming across. Tariffs paused.

    You do understand that Mexican soldiers make $415 per month? So Donald Trump has leveraged them for… carry the one… $4M per month. What a genius deal this deal artist negotiated. Seems so worth the threat to industries, inflation, and investors. lol. You guys would do anything for this man.

    We can just repurpose some of the 600MM the Pentagon spent on sushi last year.

    10k Mexican troops were so effective in 2021 at stopping drugs and immigrants. That's why 10k this time will be so effective!

    Again, most drugs are smuggled in as contraband along legal shipments. Or the cartels use American citizen mules. Because as a citizen, the chances of BP stopping you entering the country is extremely small. I've been back and forth through Lukeville on the way back from Rocky Point several times, and never once did it take more than 2 minutes to check all passports and be waved through.

    Soldiers aren't going to harass US citizens. That practice ended decades ago. The resort towns and cartels need the Americans, so they pay off the military. Soldiers aren't going to stop trucks either.

    If you really think the troops are going to make a difference, you should ask me about my oceanfront property in Kansas I'm selling. Great deal, just for you.

    At least the clown ended his tariff scam promptly, so there's less harm to the economy.

    Now he can get back to stealing.
