【The U.S. and Canada Enter a Mutual Sabotage Mode】Trump has provoked a dispute with the people of Canada—the most friendly nation on Earth to the United States.
Trump published a lengthy post, humiliating Ontario Premier Doug Ford: "The U.S. has been propping up Canada for decades—enough is enough!" He claims that the U.S. will always be bigger, wealthier, and stronger than Canada, and that Canada cannot survive without the U.S., blaming this dire situation on poor leadership, primarily Governor Carney and his sycophantic lackey Ford.
Trump reminded Canadians that most of their electricity, oil, and natural gas are transported through the U.S. Someone should make these clowns “fall in line”—or face even worse consequences.
He stated that Canada’s unemployment rate has reached 10% and is rising rapidly, with Canadian companies fleeing to the U.S.—all due to failed policies and incompetent leadership!
"The days of exploiting American farmers and other businesses are OVER!"
Ontario Premier Doug Ford responded with a uniquely strategic countermove, targeting Republican-led red states in the U.S.—Trump’s core base.
He said, "Canada did not start this conflict, but we’re ready to win it—electricity, critical minerals, everything is on the table."
Ford told Trump: "You're a loser." "I have so many real estate properties on my backside that he has plenty of room to kiss it… kissing my little toe wouldn’t even be worthy."
Ford harshly criticized Trump’s unreliability: "He constantly changes agreements, keeps shifting targets. On day one, he’ll steal your lunch money; on day two, your hat; on day three, your shoes."
The U.S.-Canada trade war is turning into a verbal duel.
But if we return to the essence of trade wars, the fundamental facts are:
62% of U.S. crude oil imports come from Canada;
99% of U.S. natural gas imports come from Canada;
85% of U.S. potash imports come from Canada;
30% of U.S. critical minerals come from Canada.
