Explain how it's is not true. Is this where you say the canned line about casinos as if you know what you're talking about?

Decades.

That's all well and good. How did he make/retain his money and how is he still a billionaire, then?

Gordon Ramsey has had to shut down many restaurants as well. Still a highly successful businessman. You don't know what you're talking about. You read some headlines, and think you have an insight into a billion dollar empire.

Clown shoes. You're wearing them.

Its not unheard of but its usually a bad idea. IIRC before Trump the last president to impose them was Bush in 2002 and it was for a short period of time and exempted not only Canada and Mexico but other countries as well. And not only that but the tariffs were withdrawn years before they were set to expire.

Trump put tariffs on CDN Steel and aluminum in his first term. Didn't last long and i doubt this will as well. Could lead to some sort of concession on of Canada's protected industries like diary

I think both are silly. I understand that generally nations don't want to depend on hostile nations for strategic resources but Canada, Mexico, and Japan are not hostile nations.

In fairness Biden blocked the Nippon Steel buy out of US Steel which I thought was very stupid but I suspect that's in part because Trump has popularized protectionism.

I thought it was due to Pennsylvania being a toss up in an election year.

They’re actually Vans.

So far as I can tell based on the documented evidence:
-tax fraud
-crypto pump and dump
-bribes from foreign nations
-grossly overcharging the US secret service
-trust fund
-inheritance
-political donations

And as far as I can, still a billion dollar empire. Still not sitting in a cell, like so many others.

You know better, though. I'd hire you over Trump as an advisor in a second. I mean, what does he bring to table that you reading ten years worth of Huffington Post articles can't?

Yes I know but I meant before Trump came onto the scene.

His round of tariffs in the first term were less extensive but IIRC some were left in place by Biden.

He ran on tariffs as a cure all so I doubt its all bluster, I think he really believes in them.

I thought it was due to Pennsylvania being a toss up in an election year.

That was probably part of it but note that he officially blocked the deal after the election.

Guys a billionaire who's been elected president twice.

There were only 2 options, I will always support the option I believe to be better.

He believes them until the aerospace and auto industry heads call him to tell him to eff off

Yeah the option that's going to invade our sovereign country, really best for our interests

Like I said, you just read headlines. You have no idea what you're talking about. You even say he has "rape conviction" for God's sake. Did Rachel Maddow tell you that? Fuckin' embarrassing.

Clown shoes. You're still wearing them.

Tariffs are a red herring, trump wants to annex canada

He has said it explicitly
