Well, the Ontario Canadian Premier essentially told the syphilitic orange menace to go fuck himself.


Ontario Canadian premier says he will cut off electricity exports to US ‘with a smile on my face’​


"
Ford doubled down on his pledge to retaliate by matching tariffs, noting the U.S. is a major customer of Canada’s electricity.
“They rely on our energy. They need to feel the pain. They want to come at us hard, we’re going to come back twice as hard,” he said.
The Sun reported Ford said he would go dollar-for-dollar in matching tariffs: “That’s exactly what we’re going to do.”"


Doug Ford appears to have a set of balls that none of our republican congress seems to have.
Good for them.

Why I think the tariffs, and possible global trade wars, are a bad idea.
Let me start by saying I like Trump. I think he has good ideas with DOGE and strengthening the border.
Since you like DOGE so much I have a few questions.

Verizon was set to get a contract replacing part of air traffic infrastructure. Now Musk is going to dump Verizon and put in Starlink. How is that NOT a MAJOR conflict of interest that does nothing put line Elon's pocket? The Verizon system does have problems but a government employee who decides contracts possibly taking over one that benefits him personally is the very thing government used to not allow for obvious reasons.

Of DOGE is so hell bent to cut wasteful spending how did they allow Trump to spend 35M in recreational sending in hiss 1st MONTH in office?


Also, what do you like so much about Trump?

Not just a major COI, but also a complete violation of federal contracting. There is a reason career officials are not signing the paperwork: no one who knows how the process is supposed to work wants to be liable for committing various federal felonies.

I think we should always strive to do good for citizens, even when many vote against our self interests.

However, what do you think about Dems (potentially) saving Trump’s ass over tariffs against MX and CA?

I don't read this as ANY of the possible outcomes saving Trump.

1) They vote and it gets shot down - Trump and ALL Rs own the tariffs in public and on record
2) They vote and it somehow passes, Trump vetoes it - Trump and SOME Rs own the tariffs
3) They vote, it passes, Trump vetoes, and there is somehow a veto proof majority to override - Trump gets emasculated

Option 1 is still most likely, but they're all BAD for Trump.
