Trump's Speech To Congress: Tariffs are NOT about Border. "It's About Making America Rich"
(lemmy.ca)
I thought the reason for trashing trade agreements and taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy with extreme tariffs was because of fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?
Apparently not, says Trump, from his speech at Congress tonight: “... Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again”.
By his own words, he has just shown his big lie.
Who's gonna do anything about it anyway ? They're all in on it.
Who is they? American business owners? Because while you might see the big public players on a stage with Trump, the private sector of business is a an extremely diverse group. They don’t support Trump by virtue of their existence, just because they’re businesses.
They == Congress
And they're definitely not a fan of his obsession with tariffs. Just look what's happening to the stock market.
