Discourse Analysis

How does this make sense? Trump being the stupid ass he has always been, put tariffs on imported goods from Canada causing US citizens to pay more for goods from Canada. So PM Trudeau sets tariffs on goods coming in from the US causing CAnidian citizens to pay more for goods imported from the US.\nHaving said that, I do see that PM Trudeau will be causing Canadian citizens to stop buying imported US products, slapping Trump in the face and causing hardship to US manufacturers. This should cause blowback from US manufacturers towards Trump'a stupidity.\nOh, ?Trump

Good luck America with launching trade war against Canada, EU, China, MX etc..American people have NO CLUE what gonna hit them, whats coming with this relentness STUPIDITY by Trump admin..NO FIN CLUE

Stop fear-mongering. American people voted for a change and this tariff is just the beginning.

Trumps dumbass logic is “people should do as I say just cause” no dipshit that’s not how things are done

Trump is setting fire everywhere in the world except russia. You better get rid of this gangster.

The tariff war won't last. It will get ironed out in negotiations on other matters, probably in the form of tighter border restrictions, correcting some farm goods imbalance, and increasing tariffs on Chinese imports. Trump states pretty plainly in his order that this is for purposes of leverage, not punishment. I'd wager Trudeau caves to his demands within a few weeks.

How Fkn Stupid is our Leadership?!?! \nIt all makes sense if you consider that Trump is trying to Destroy the United States relationships!!!! \nhes CLEARLY PICKING FIGHTS!!!!

This is the difference between a real leader and a sloppy stooge leader.

Do you know Canada charged us out the ass wake up people

Canada really messing up here

You have destroyed Canada you crack pot

The problem is Trump's doing totally the most unnecessary actions against our country and it's people! What did the American people do to deserve this unnecessary action of tariffs! They're on logic in it at all! I don't see any good reason, just tell the people why! I'm sure Trump doesn't have one if he says he does he's lying!

Canadian here; Trudeau spent the last decade ruining Canada, destroying peoples quality of life, flooding the country with cheap labour & being compromised by rival nations. Judge a person not by what they say, but what they have done.

Can we stop pretending Trump is smart? He's an idiot who is running scared and its ruining all of us.

Am I missing something? Hasn’t the Canadian government been pushing higher taxes on its citizens for years now and making everyday living difficult?

Why are we only retaliating only 25%, slap stupid Trump with 50% tariffs as he thinks he has all the power in the world. I hope all the world leaders stick together & shut this idiot down!!!

As a Canadian.... screw this clown. Trudeau is a useless lame duck. He has announced his resignation and has no mandate whatsoever to represent us. You call a man names for 8 years, and there are going to be consequences you fool. Of course this isn't about fentanyl. You've prodded a bully and now that bully is responding like bullies do. \nA Canadian election can't possibly come soon enough.

Ford will turn off American gas. Good luck Trump.

Justin Trudeau, such an ignorant prime minister, who has been proven corrupt so many times in his own parliament, is doing all this drama to save his face in front of Canadians, who already know his true face.\nThose Rainbow spilling WOKE jerks in this comment should just find themselves a good insane asylum and register for life.

Starting this trade war is not only the craziest political decision I have seen in my entire life, it destroys the relationship between the US and its closest allies on purpose. A relation that has been built over decades. People and businesses on both sides of the pond will suffer badly from this idiotic agenda for no real reason. The USA is now officially at trade war with the free world.
