Tariffs are paid by importers,Canada and Mexico are suppliers ,Dumb.

This isn't about fentanyl or the borders it's about Trumps desire to make money off tariffs so he can pay for tax cuts to his billionaire ass kissers while the first lady Musk is stealing money from government offices. Trump is not a smart man. Recently he said this was a bad agreement and who the hell signed this speaking about the last trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. Well it was you Dumb Donald. Nothing more than a child bully.\n This idiot thinks Zelensky is a dictator but refuses to call Putin a dictator WTF . He says Ukraine started the war, what a retarded scumbag. Good luck the next 4 years UST, United States of Trump.

Trump will put 100% tariffs on canadian products now! Have you learned anything from the zelensky debacle? Calling trump dumb will not be good for you?

Wait so if tariffs are so bad for the country imposing them and that trump is so dumb to impose tariffs why would they retaliate with tariffs if there so bad for the country imposing them? It makes no sense. If trump is wrong for imposing tariffs why respond with your own?

As an American, we are friends of Canada. I am sorry the tariffs will harm both sides. It is a dumb thing to do. We repect your need to defend your interests. Mr Trudeau well spoken.

Trump is dumb. \nHis tariffs are dumb.\nTrump is a horrible person.\nTrump will fail because he is a failure.

companies like John Deere, Ford, Chevy, etc have moved their factories to Mexico, so I understand the tariffs.......what i dont understand is the tariffs on Canada that is just dumb

There is only one thing the canadian prime minister got wrong. Trump is an ABSOLUTE STUPID MORON and that is the reason he does dumb moves like tariffs. Plus, trump is a criminal that should have been put in prison years ago

On behalf of all Americans with an active brain i do sincerely apologize for the dumb tariffs imposed by Trump and Musk and i hope that after Trump leaves office we can get someone who understands tarrifs and its effects and who will revoke this tariffs and restore the healthy America and Canada relationship once again.

Germany here: Donald,,, how would your Citizen like 100% tariffs on German - European Cars ? Porsche Mercedes Audi BMW Ferrari Lamborghini RR Bentley and so on and so on .... I guess they will love it :D we could give this tariff money to UA and they will recover. DJ Trump thinks he is Batman, but he is just a dumb version of the Joker. America will go back to wild wild west and citizen which im very sorry for will not like this i guess. \nJT is right, this actually is a very dumb thing to do :D hahaha

Justin you obviously want this or you’d stop it by lowering your already higher tariffs. I’ll take the hit to show your dumb ass what reciprocal trade means

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

So Canada imposes its tariffs on USA goods is fine, when US imposes its tariffs on Canadian goods is dumb??? WTF

Thank you so much, Prime Minister Trudeau, for telling Trump his action on the tariff is dumb.

I voted for Trump, but it's hard not to agree with Trudeau on this even though I find this guy to be extremely unpleasant. There's no reason to start trade wars all over the world and in particular with our neighbors. It's one thing to threaten tariffs and a very different thing to actually apply them. If you do it has to be accompanied by a lot of diplomacy so that the other country is not overreacting, but Trump has been super combative prompting our neighbors to respond in kind to save face. While past deals may not have been great for US, this is not the way to handle our differences. Billionaires like Trump and his friends will be fine, but the majority of ordinary folks in the US and Canada will suffer. Very dumb, indeed.

His tariffs are like throwing a pebble at an ocean. He is not tough and he isn't fooling anyone. Also, every tariff he puts on the US is gonna be matched and an additional 25 percent would be added on top. This is a dumb move.

We understand that our administration is out of control. Our Republican senators and representatives do not stand up to this weirdo in the White House. Neither does any cabinet member.\nWe understand that tariffs are DUMB.

There is a reason for the tariffs; Trump is fooling his idiotic supporters that he’s doing what he said he would do and they are dumb enough to believe it while they pay more for gas and food! You cant make this ishh up!

Trump did a favor to Canada if these dumb liberals can understand! Stop being dependent on Americans by lifting taxes tariffs between provinces, lift the dumb carbon tax and build pipelines!

Dumb move, Trudeau. Trump doesn't fear measured responses; he's not a normal person. He only understands if you hit him back much harder than he hits you. \nCanada should NOT impose retaliatory counter tariffs that harm CANADIANS (Or do like China and impose 75% Tariffs on US items Canada can easily buy elsewhere). Rather, Canada should shut the OIL spigot and cancel electric feeds into the USA. RIGHT NOW. THAT would have the required effect and NOT HARM Canadians.

Can it be that the dumb Trump voters think the foreign countries would pay those tariffs to the US?

? lmao is there finally someone standing up to trump. Hahahaha. Trump is getting humbled by other countries. Because we America can't ?what a darn moron. Tariffs cost America alot more money on goods when those countries just bring up the price for Americans so they can pay those tarrifs. It's been proven already with Mexico.a civic built in Mexico use to cost Americans 20k now its up to 40k because of dumb ass donald bringing tariffs. Bro no one cares about your threats trump there just empty when those countries tell u go f yourself. What a darn idiot.this is what you voted for ?

?? i don't know who's the bigger idiot?! #47 who seemingly believes the tariffs are bad for the countries he's putting them on or the idiots who applaud his actions seemingly unaware that they get to foot the bill! Dumb arses!

Great Job by Colombia!!! Let’s make America a 3rd world country!!! Gonna love seeing Trump voters paying $7,500 more a year on groceries and other goods due to Tariffs!! Many Countries are enjoying his stupidity!! Can’t fix dumb huh RepubliTARDs!?????

Putting a tariff on columbia is literally not doing anything too columbia .. god hes so dumb...

Tariffs won't hurt Colombia, they will hurt American taxpayers. Dumb trump.

Which dumb ass doesn't realize that the end consumer is the one who eventually has to pay the tariffs, not the country where the goods are being imported from because it will get added into the cost of importing and down to consumers.

Trump is so dumb. The countries don’t care about his stupid tariffs as it will only hurt us Americans. Tariffs get passed on to us and not the country being tariffed ?

Ah yes, Colombia are the only ones that can provide all that, people will not have other choices than to pay for the price differences caused by tariffs on Colombian products. Them liberals are dumb as duck.

Honestly how is it possible that almost all of Trump's supporters lack critical thinking, they are just emotional babies like him. How is it hard to think that having such Tariffs affects consumer price at the same rate. How dumb can you be not to see this? I also understand other countries to denay the landing of military planes without schedule or agreed up on time and place. How would US feel if another country just sends their military plane without any information . This is wild.

Trump os dumb his professor said he was the dumbest student he ever had. Donny when tariffs are added on imports the importing county pays them. Wake up. You are showing you are not a business man. If property taxes go up you have to pass it on to the golfers so you raise what it costs to play a round add it on to the cart fee. You wont take the loss you dumb dumb

please keep lying to the american ppl cnn.. midterms are in the bag for us, 2028 in the bag, supreme ct... in the bag... yeah the US is so scared of Mexico lmao. mexico is going to place tariffs on us? are you really that dumb

I'm old. You know how I know that for sure? I remember Laugh-in and I keep hearing Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me. Tariff's arent' going to strengthen our trade negotiations with China. Quite the opposite. They'll just cut a better import deal with other countries. And it's not COUNTRIES that are ripping us off - it's CORPORATIONS. Trump wants you to believe it is countries so he can give tax cuts to corporations and dumb people won't know how badly that is screwing us over. It's like 'Over here is the REAL evil', not over there! Trust me! I'm your protector!!'

Trumps supporters were too dumb to comprehend that high tariffs on imports would NOT help our economy. It’s like when trump said that Mexico would pay for the border wall. Mexico is playing chess while diaper Don is playing candyland

Go to hell, trump.\nTry putting s tariff on Mexico, trump dumb idiot.

Trump is about to get some lessons in how the country & the world has changed. He is gonna start off pissing of Mexico & Canada who've always been friends of the U.S .. how dumb & all over these ridiculous tariffs

Shows you how simple minded the American right is buying Orange man’s rhetoric - doesn’t take a rocket scientist to google the basic workings of tariffs and how it actually affects people …. So given the fact that it is very easy to research this stuff it shows you how lazy and dumb the American right is
