For all you who voted for trump: So you believe in imaginary facts just because you herd trump say it. \nThat is the trouble with MAGA, they don't ever check to see if anything is true. So go ahead and keep granting unlimited power to those who will never let you in the club. Never allow you to get ahead unless it by lying, cheating and stealing. \nYou really can't stand to look at all those trump business failures, bankruptcies and unpaid debts. \nWhy else does he sell cheap Chinese crap on the internet just like all those other late-night fraudsters do. \nYour rage has probably stopped you from reading anymore.

No one can solve the border problem at the border. The solution is at the home countries of the refugees. Lift them out of poverty, that’s the only solution. If China had not lifted 800 million out of poverty, the world would be awash with Chinese refugees. Lifting a country out of poverty took China only one generation. Same can be done for the home countries of the refugees.\nBTW the wars in the middle east has created a lot of refugees.

US trade with China is now only 16% of Chinese exports. Trump no longer has the leverage he had in his first term, and China has learned not to trust any agreements wth the USA because the US always breaks them, particularly Trump. From this point forward, every agreement will be transactional. If Trump goes over the top with tariffs on China, Mexico and Canada it will trigger an inflationary spiral that harms US consumers and an economy already in debt. Voter remorse will be swift.

China is using Mexico to avoid paying the US to have their merchandise cross the border. China is sneaky..be careful with them.\nI dont support Trump but he is half right but so is the president from Mexico.\nTrump and Claudia need to sit down and have a productive conversation on how to resolve this issue. One of the things I would mention is to not have Chinese merchandise cross the US-Mexico border through Mexico, thats where I think the conversation should really focus on. I blame ex president Enrique Pena Nieto for this problem because he allowed China to use Mexico, corrupted president.

lol why do the brainless sheep believe trump when he says China is paying for the tariffs?? - nothing could be further from the truth - it is the usa importers who pay the tariffs and they in turn pass on those increased costs to the american consumers. So when trump says he will put 60% tariffs on Chinese goods, it means that the american consumers will have to pay at least 60% more for those goods.

Everyone was fine with the tariffs 6 + years ago until they bought Chinese good's at Walmart and discovered we the consumer paid for the tariffs

It's about National Security. She will have to surge troops to the border and accept with Remain in Mexico policy. Also - no more building plants for Chinese cars to avoid tariffs.

The problem of those tariffs also imposed on the Chinese car market is for the benefit of his great friend Elon Musk since then he would not have competition and not to help the citizen

This video says 10% tariff on Chinese goods but on news stations on TV last night he says 60%... what is it?

CNN= Chinese news network.

What will Trump do if the Mexicans invite the Russians and Chinese to build Military bases there.

While that Chinese billion dollar shipping port in Peru failed???

Canada and Mexico have trade agreements with European countries and China. American companies and citizens will pay more for everything. Nice veggies from Mexico, +25% more. Construction lumber from Canada, +25%. Houses will cost more. Walmart is already the biggest purchaser of Chinese goods in the world. Tariffs on those as well? Plus 25%.

This is one of the most delusional news channels I have ever seen, but the worst part is the facts that viewers believe what they say. Inflation occurs when the federal government places to much money in circulation. The Biden administration cut the key stone pipeline, subsequently increasing the cost of oil and gas, while negating the billions being brought in via oil exports. Gave a sizable portion of the stretegic oil reserve to non stretegic countries, increased Government spending on bad programs, sent several hundred billion to fund non stretegic foreign wars and hundreds of billions on housing, medical care and debit cards for illegal immigrants, while doing nothing for Maui, North Carolina and Florida or the millions of homeless and diplaced Americans and American veteran.\nAs for this Mexico issue. The people have spoken. Border counties filled with legal immigrants but flooded with violent illegals voted for Donald Trump because they are living the nightmare created by Mexico and the Biden administration, that these media and political hacks theorize about. The Mexican government has failed its people by allowing the Cartels to fill their pockets with billions every year. \nMexico is also working with China to funnel Chinese goods through Mexico in an attempt to bypass tariffs and flood the American economy with cheap Chinese goods. Don't let this Mexican president fool you, they are afraid of Trump holding them accountable for facilitating this mass invasion on the border. She made this statement publicly as a shakedown tactic instead of talking directly to President Trump. Her actions should tell you all that you need to know about these political puppets. In conclusion, Tariffs are affective because these greedy American and Foreign corporations use cheap labor to make cheap goods that they then sell for major profit. Tariffs tend to make these companies movie to America create American Jobs and pay higher American salaries which are a significant savings over tariffs. The companies lose considerable profits but they gain market share because they understand that when you raise the price of goods you only make the American alternative more appealing.

Biden didn't reverse tariffs since American companies raised prices, to match new higher prices of Chinese products. That was beginning of inflation.

People don't understand, when we buy their goods it grew their economy because our currency is higher then the rest of the world, if they want to buy from us they spend millions on it that is why they trade with Chinese in buying. Currently, they spend their money on cheap fake good that lasted only for a mouth or weeks from China. \nShe thinks she can grew our economy with their little money. It's time we forecast on our farmers instead of this so called traitors who buys Chinese good and sell their product to us

What product did Maxico sell to China and that they keep on buying their goods? Punish them.\nDid they actually think China will buy their goods? She has loud mouth so shut her mouth up with Tariffs with their goods maybe China buy their Mexican goods ????.\nDid they think Chinese will buy their full grow cow and transport it China which is hundreds of miles away?

It is unfortunate that we are going to destroy NAFTA 2.0 with Canada and Mexico . Mexico has options, and the Chinese are already fulfilling México needs. China has already bought most of South America infrastructure 8n key countries isuch as Chile, Peru, Ecuador etc. Home prices are going to be up on new houses because most of our building woods and metals come from Canada. Furthermore, auto parts and building components for most household appliances are made in Mexico. This is going to hurt the American consumer and the poor.

Oh, Mexico will respond in kind??????. Let see Mexico. There is a reason why Chinese economic stop growing after Trump Tariffs which Biden kept.

100,000 Americans die every year from the fentanyl that comes out of Mexico, the precursor ms of which are subsidized by the Chinese communist party. This stopped being a simple drug problem a long time ago

This is exactly what China wants. The next thing you know China will be building a port, Baja California a.k.a. resting stop for Chinese navy\nThis tear of shit is going to drive up prices dramatically, and cause a major recession almost immediately

Buy your Tesla's. The rest of the world will enjoy the lower priced, better build and more economical Chinese products.

Sheinbaum also noted that Mexico has taken significant steps to stem the flow of migrants at the border, saying, “Caravans of migrants no longer reach the border.” \n \nTrump said on Monday that he will enact tariffs of 25 percent on all Canadian and Mexican goods, and add another 10 percent tariff to all Chinese goods — many of which are already under tariffs imposed by Trump during his first term.

African and Caribbean men instead of fleeing go fix your failed homelands, before your countries get colonised by the Chinese

There are many city localities in Canada , where are too many chinese. But whole india has problem with Punjabis there , especially with Sikhs .

now imagine it was chinese govt. would trudeau still be this calm? you allow indians over-run your country, yet china is no1 enemy....yeah yeah, democratic alliance with india, yeah? what is so democratic about it? that so many indians cant wait to leave that democracy

How many countries are we gonna let the Indians and Chinese overpopulate and ruin before enough is enough?

The Chinese president is like a robot. No feeling no humour no smile

I live in Canada for last 48 years, and it’s a wonderful place, but problems started when liberal government started giving “immigrants” free money, that was burdened on the system.. and Chinese were buying houses in Vancouver and left them empty.. we don’t have corporations, bribery but values of time is very important… yes we do have some problems with economic issues… hopefully will get sorted out when new government will come next year.. not with EVM

Sounds like cheap Chinese customer

Two massive, now irreversible problems. \n\nForeign (Chinese) real estate acquisitions/treating homes in Canada strictly as investments. Case in point, thousands upon thousands of empty condos in greater Vancouver. Which equates to a shortage of housing for people that have lived here and paid taxes their entire life, as a Canadian. Foreign real estate speculation and land purchasing has not only been allowed, AND encouraged, new properties/condos are being marketed in China well before they are IN Vancouver! Now, it's too late to plug the leak. Thus, rampant homelessness. \n\nCompletely irresponsible immigration policy. Nobody in their right mind would deny that a multicultural country like Canada needs immigrants. Especially with the aging population. But as far as accommodating/housing these people, we're not even close to being on target. We are not only putting the horse ahead of the cart, the horse hasn't even been born yet!\n\nNeither situation will be fixed anytime soon.

Australia is the new canada....Indians think Australia is as rich as America, Australian govt thinks Indian students are as rich as Chinese students. Everybody overestimating each other.

clear media diversion its like saying eat at chinese restuarantes pre covid..... were facing a fukin tsunami flood like never before from usa of 40 million migrants mainly criminals who are forced to flea to canada.. 10 million enter 2 million leave..... thats still 8 million stay.... its no good simple math is were fuked if we dont do something massive like seriouiisly threaten thse illegals with harsh punishment not mass welfare and child benfit for their 8 person family so they make 10x what they did in their country just off child benefit

It feels so foolish to keep trying bandaid solutions that harm the US labor pool. There's a couple of things I keep thinking about in regards to this. \n\n1. Most developed countries on earth are in the midst of or are preparing to deal with population crisis and depopulation. Strong immigration to the US stems this issue and is actually a huge advantage to the power and continuing visibility of the USA.\n\n2. Deportation and border control strike at the effect of immigration and leave the cause unharmed. People come to the USA because there's opportunities here, so why not make opportunities abroad?\n\nIf the USA were to remove benefits of dealing with china while offering massive incentives for moving manufacturing away from china directly to Latin America, not only would we be countering our Chinese dependency but we would also provide jobs at home and stem immigration. Not only that, but the businesses would be American and be controlled by Americans - a huge incentive to stay friendly to the USA.\n\nI don't know, just seems like our current policy and especially what Trump is suggesting are counter productive and stuck in a bygone way of thinking.

Ironically the Chinese are probably legitimately refugees purely because the CCP is refusing to receive them back, there is also the fact that they are fleeing communism in support of capitalism…..

That last point is the real kicker. A lot of illegial people think of at the min are Chinese, Haitian, or Venezuelan. There is no functional way of deporting these 3 groups to their nation o origin.

If China doesn't accept its citizens back, ban all Chinese immigration to the US. Literally not a single visa more to China

i'll never understand this sort of republicans........ my brothers in christ, you literally have mostly white, catholic nations south of you, wanting to emigrate there, and you restrict them.........\nyour population growing, because of among other things, these immigrants, while chinese, ruzzian, most-of-europe-an are declining........\n\n\nmeanwile, my country will literally give tax breaks, free language courses etc to any descentant currently living in any south american country to emigrate back............\n\nlike bruuuuuhs!

I'm Canadian and we have the best Chinese food anywhere. Just need to find a good spot.

The world is a lie people hate you when you are not white not in this particular situation but it is pretty obvious that he will be harresed more than a white delivery man so it is what it is and the biggest lie is when people in this part of the world says we treat everyone equal \nAs far as my experience goes the darker you are The less human you are ? come to india and you will get everything for free complete different world doesn’t matter if you are white or Chinese or a black man from Africa

That is what’s happening if you deal with the Chinese government

China has over a million chinese nationals living in canada in the northern park right now. In those areas you cannot even go into a store unless you speak Mandarin.

I've been replaced 4 times by foreigners. I worked at Amazon and the entire huge warehouse of hundreds of people was only East Indians with only me and 3 other white people. I worked at Ballard and the entire production floor could not speak English at a elementary school level and was replaced by a guy from Iran who had never been to Canada and was in the country for 1 month. All the shift mangers were from Iran and my section was only Iranians, East Indians and Chinese. I was the top production worker by far doing the work of 4 other workers proven by the actual numbers in an attempt to keep my job but still got removed of course to make way for more Iranians because it was obviously a way to bring their people here. Zero locals were in the entire production floor. I can not have the dignity to own my own home and never will be able to even though I grew up here went to collage and university and worked hard. Rent is beyond insane and they raise it the maximum legal amount every year which is huge. All my life I had to bow down to foreigners. The locals have lost their homes and can not buy another house or could never buy one and never will be able to. All are slaves to foreigners who think they are superior and treat them like garbage. The foreigners get help from the government somehow and get loans they never should be able to get because they have crooked contacts in the Chinese owned financial institutions. They then build 5 to 10 unbelievably horrible illegal suites and that is where most of the locals now have to live in. The neighbourhoods went from a very low population of Chinese and East Indians to insanely high levels such as 98 percent. There is no sense in complaining to any government body because the Chinese and East Indians have infiltrated those key positions and always side with their own kind. The legacy news/media is fully aware but are owned by foreigners and never will talk about these issues. Canada has for sure been invaded and taken over and is lost. No one is bringing it to light and worst is no one is trying to fight it. Any attempts you are labeled as a horrible racist.

Canada stopped being attractive to Western and Central Europeans about 15 years ago. Since about 2008, we've only been getting people from the developing world - China, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, African states, Arab states, etc. And so today, Canada looks the way it does. And now it's not attractive to ANYONE. Even the Chinese and Indians have realized it's not worth coming over. A whole country destroyed over two generations. Well done, Harper and Trudeau. Well done! Papa Schwab is very proud.

What she did is NO LONGER POSSIBLE. At that time Visas were offered to many countries No one does that any more, is impossible to do, this lady knows that well too.\n\nthe broken immigration policies of the USA ?? are so bad is almost impossible to enter legal UNLESS you have $500 and invest in apt or a business , that’s how the wealthy like Arabs , Russians and Chinese do it. Every day I see illegals from Russia, Ukraine , China , Israel \nPolish. But no one bothers them

Don't feel bad Don't come to vancouver your discriminated by chinese , east indian az well as whites ?

As a Chinese immigrant, I just ask that you all stay the f away from Markham

The Chinese started showing up in balloons from Alaska today.

My family is immigranted and we all agree. Multiple times when elementary kindergarten kids were walking out of school buses im not lying everyone of them was brown likely indian. I barely see white people anymore and im asian its kinda annoying seeing someone asian as well on every corner. My math class people weere speaking chinese loudly. Eh i dont have any problem of that trust me just saying. When i was in elementary it was less common finding someone that was from my country so there was a big clear change
