Trump Tariffs Canada/Mexico/China

My wife and I walked the streets of Stellies again last Saturday...after 35 years De Akker looked almost exactly the same...and there's even more pubs today than back the...

"The thread was clearly about Trump's tariffs on Mexico and Canada and his actions and comments over the last weekend."

Yes, but this ridiculous comment below of yours wasn't ..... you unbelievably stupid idiot.... maybe the penny will drop at some point in the near future..... how dumb are you man.

"some stupid imagined grievance that the whole world is exploiting America"

Then you accuse me of changing the topic, which in fact you yourself did.

Of course I'm not and you know it. You simply want to change the topic over to misappropriation of foreign aid a topic I never commented on to avoid having to talk about Trump's stupidly simplistic views on trade and his stated reason's for employing tariffs.

Nope, I am simply addressing your false claim about Trump.... simple

"Do you really think screaming liar, dishonest, deceitful every 5 seconds is distracting anyone from the lack of substance in your arguments. You come across as being a very angry emotional chap who holds a grudge and has become more than a little bit obsessed with proving my posts wrong. I'm guessing my last response on that Ashely Biden diary thread stuck a nerve."

Lol, just go back and check who actually is obsessed with proving someone wrong on this forum, with all the posters on this forum, not just me..... and the spotlight lands directly on you dude.... in all the various different threads...... you have blinkers on that blind your judgement to the extent that you become dishonest and deceitful just to try and win some online debate.....you constantly have to prove most people wrong, on so many different topics........ and the proof is all here for anyone to see......so swing it any way you want to, I have proven you to be the liar that you are numerous times now....you just can't help yourself..... it's in your nature.... it's your go to..... and it's a sad aspect of your flawed character.

"Look at the topics thread name"

Look at your stupid comment

"LOL, more of the the brazen balls act. Just pretend I didn't completely refute your argument and call me stupid."

Ok stupid

"Yes you absolute imbecile. Because in the grand scheme of things illegal border crossings and fentanyl smuggling on the northern border is a very minor issue."

More assumptions from you.... your go to tactic

"Oh look he's calling me stupid again how mean"

If the shoe fits....stupid

"not because the Canada are some sort of immensely incompetent people who can't police their own border but because the relative amount of fentanyl being brought across the border from Canada is very small"

And you know this how?

"Yes why does he bother when the wins are so trivial and the cost is so high to America's international standing."

How do you know what the overall potential wins are?

"Or Canada can just designate cartels as terrorist and do nothing else."

Yeah.... that's the perfect way to get additional resouces and finances to fight the problem.... stooopid. 

"The numbers were already trending downwards since the start of 2024 and I except that trend to continue. But if their is a notable increase in the number of arrests made by Mexican authorities I'll give Trump some credit, but I'd be extremely skeptical that any such improvement would be worth the reputational damage done to the US by the whole episode."

I am specifically talking about the number of illegal people coming into the US, not arrests ........ deal or no deal?

I will apologise to you personally on this forum in front of everyone if I get this wrong about Trump

I am saying that Trump will do FAR better than Biden or Harris, within 6 - 12 months, compared to what they did over 4 years...... but I expect the same from you if you are wrong...

Deal?
