Did you know Tariffs are awful for free trade?
Not a leftist but the tariffs haven’t gone into effect so unable to see the affects.
Damn, David Hogg is also a Nazi!
It was never about actually imposing tariffs. It was about threatening to in order to get a change in behavior. Worked against Colombia, then Panama, and now Mexico. Canada will fall in line shortly. The fact that most of our resident lefties in here were screaming about how it would cripple our economy and hurt the average Americans shows how little they know about any of this... and they won't learn a thing from it. By tomorrow the same ones will be crying, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!!!" about something else they don't understand.
Is that the only thing MX agreed too? Sending some troops to the boarder? I'm not sure how affective that will be with stopping drugs, probably will be more affective with stoping some of the migrants crossing.
Propaganda started by the left.
Do you think drugs walk across on their own?
Nah, just having a laugh at the constant, crying, spluttering, frustrated meltdowns from the losing side. We don't want you to stop. It's funny to watch the hysterical, irrational tantrums over made-up nonsense and things you don't understand. It has a purple haired "I'm so scared that I'm moving to Canada" or Selena Gomez bawling vibe to it. It's glorious! By all means, keep going!
Drones, tunnels,cars, boats... don't be so naive
You can't even let this go into effect before declaring it will be a failure?
It's just the initial thing they agreed to in order to avoid the tariffs. Negotiations are set to continue later this week.
I didn't say failure. But we must put our faith into the Mexican government/ military all of a sudden.
Technically you didn't. Your post implied it IMO.
Naive would be thinking you thought of drones, cars and boats first and that thought will never reach the southern border.
Oh I already got selected lol. Just have to let a doctor look at my butthole and fondle me to make sure I'm fit to sit at a desk all day.
It seems rather odd, and concerning, that this Turkish fucker with no security clearance who has no real role in the administration is wandering around with a bunch of literal teenaged incels gaining access to our social security numbers, Medicare, etc.
Elon has a top secret clearance.
Ahh, but the threat of them sure works well when used correctly. Colombia, Panama, Mexico and Canada all fell in line almost immediately. So much for them destroying free trade and hurting the American consumer, eh?Tariffs have never worked in modern times. Look at GwB did with the steel tariffs, horrible failure.
So, is 43 pounds of fentanyl worth roughly $31M in street terms. Trump put tariffs that lead to retaliatory measures costing $7.5B, so that's ~$175M per pound that was seized in 2023. So basically he paid 240x the market rate if these tariffs stop all fentanyl.
Masterful gambit Mr. President! Those dumb lefties are so emotional and can't quantify what an extreme win this is!
Fucking brain dead to support this. Of course the Canadian dollar is tanking, the US dwarfs the Canadian economy exponentially, but spending 240x the cost should be something rational people would take issue with but I know IE MAGA can't and won't say that.
Fentanyl Analogs
Fentanyl analogs are illicit—and often deadly—alterations of the medically prescribed drug fentanyl. The analogs have similar chemical structure, and they mimic the pharmacological effects of the original drug.www.pnnl.gov
