The Democrats have done it again. They have taken all their efforts to extinguishing a tiny little flame of competency, a flicker of excitement. They didn't want to risk their entrenched leadership of well-funded octogenarians with replacement by young progressives. They have proven once again they are a dead political party.

If it were truly #reciprocaltariffs, we’d be raising tariffs to whatever level that country was levying against our products, in a sort of a “we’re going to punish ourselves as badly as you’ve been punishing you” maneuver.

Instead, we’re basing US tariffs on trade imbalance and half the ratio we “overly” buy from another country, in sort of a “we’re going to punish you as badly as we’ve been punishing ourselves” maneuver

Another #OwnGoal from #Google. Does no one in that business have a good enough grasp of the English language to know that 'thinking hard', like 'playing hard' or 'practicing hard', is a good thing, that it has positive connotations?

They are clearly trying to contrast 'being smart' with 'doing things the hard way' and have incorrectly assumed that 'hard' always has negative valence.

Nope, Carney is set to Protect Canada and deal with the the Trump Threat, not trade talks.

Canada's relationship with the US is broken. Canada is changing.

And Ontario Premier already added 25% to electrical exports to US.

Is (makers of ) currently offering any courses on how to rapidly destroy (what’s left of) your business? They certainly have the required experience.

But eggs are cheaper now, right?

Tweet from Carlos Turnbull (@cturnbull1969) at 2:40pm 2/4/25 says, “My wife called to tell me that some friends of ours, who are cotton farmers in Oklahoma, just lost their biggest contract with a Canadian buyer. The buyer felt there was too much instability so he signed a deal with a cotton producer in Brazil. The Trump effect strikes again.

The Americans have just shot down one of their own F/A-18F Super Hornets in the Red Sea. The pilots managed to eject, but that's a $70m+ aircraft taken out by "friendly fire".

I think the
#OwnGoal tag applies to those wanting to hand that silver platter.
