In his news conference today, Trudeau said Canada will hold firm and push ahead with retaliatory tariffs and other measures until Trump backs off entirely.

The US has always been a laughing stock, but to be this embarrassing is something I never expected in my lifetime. Fuck the US - it's going to take a loooooooong time before anybody can take them seriously ever again.

So much for the master negotiator.

Is anybody surprised this guy can't keep his policy straight? He can't even stay on topic for 5 minutes when he talks.

The Taliban humiliated him. He has one entirely exploitable strategy: try and be a bully and back down when he gets called out.

The result is widespread boycott of American manufacturing, Europe pulling away from a reliance on the US including manufacturing their own arms, a pivot towards BRICS and China, and a hastened end to the dollar as global reserve currency followed by an America that has to pay its debts.

What a fool. America's second vote for Trump has shown the world it is an unreliable partner.
