Is there not a single person in the Administration who can quietly say to him: “Ah, excuse me, Mr. President: - the Canadian trade surplus with us is actually $46 billion, not $90 billion. - their trade surplus with us is only because we buy $110 billion of oil & gas from them, and we’re getting it at a 30% discount! - without the cheap oil we get from Canada, we run a goods & services trade surplus of $66 billion against them. - So actually we’re “ripping off” those dumb Canadians by $66 billion, and getting their oil at bargain basement prices to boot! You should go out there and take credit! We’re winning! It’s proof that your USMCA is in fact “the single greatest trade agreement ever signed,” like you said back in 2018! - maybe we shouldn’t push the Canadians too far, because they sell us 22% of the oil we use, and 2/3rds of the oil we import. - even before Ukraine started that war over there by refusing to become a Russian vassal state, the Canadians were selling us ten times more oil than Russia. - our candidates in the Northern border states are telling us that our tariffs and attacks on Canada are landing like a lead balloon. - how about we move the focus to Communist China instead? For some reason, our voters seem to think that Canada is a friendly ally, but China is an adversary that has been screwing us over on trade for decades.
