Oh please, Lord, save me from the ongoing humiliation. It gets worse every day.

Canada decided to apply an enormous retaliatory import tax on Maine lobster and other seafoods and they announced it. Their expectation was that anti-Trump Susan Collins would apply enough pressure on PDJT to change the trajectory of the negotiations. Then Carney and Premier Ford were informed by Canadian east coast fisheries that … a-hem … they import Maine seafood for their canning industry and they’d go belly up after the retaliation. So Canada withdrew the import tariffs on seafood. Keystone Cops comes to mind and our military is too DEI to be very effective in any actual skirmish.

The problem here seems to be that governmental propaganda does not work as well as it used to.
