He went into a temper tantrum over an ad from Canada. He is laying on the floor pounding his fists and kicking his feet. Wahhh...! Wahhh...!
October 26, 2025Donald Trump has said he is increasing tariffs on goods imported from Canada by 10%, after the province of Ontario aired an anti-tariff advertisement featuring Ronald Reagan.The US president called the advert a "fraud" and lashed out at Canadian officials for not removing it ahead of the World Series baseball championship in a social media post on Saturday.Ontario's premier said he would take it down to allow trade talks with the US to proceed, after Trump withdrew - but that it would still run in the US over the weekend.
They're picking on me! Wahhh...! And just like a spoiled little kid he hits back!
The US has already imposed a 35% levy on all Canadian goods - though most are exempt under an existing free trade agreement. It has also slapped sector-specific levies on Canadian goods, including a 50% levy on metals and 25% on automobiles.Trump said while travelling to Asia on Saturday that he was "increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now". Tariffs are paid by the companies that import foreign products, not the exporters themselves.
There that will teach them... so there take that!
But the fact remains President Reagan did not like tariffs. All the economists say the same thing... it is a tax on the the people buying the goods not on the counties selling the goods. And trump is using the money that the tariffs are ranking in as a giant slush fund.
