It's got to get through Congress next. If by some chance it does. Trump can veto it. Then it takes 2/3 to override that. Canada can get ready to pay.
In 2001 is when I started questioning WTF is going on here? Not just with this but who benefited the most from all events since then.
History as a WTO member
It comprehensively amended its Trademark Law, Patent Law, and Copyright Law after it joined the World Trade Organization in 2001. After its entry into the WTO (WTO) in December 2001, China began pursuing export-led growth and became a key link in global supply chains.

Know what's so ironic about this story 82? Everyone complaining or worried about the tariffs we're proposing to charge our traders have been virtually silent over the outrageous confiscatory tariffs they've been charging us!
I'll never understand Americans willing to get ripped off by Foreigners?Take my business...auto sales. Some of my customers will drive to 10 different dealerships around town trying to see if my quoted price is significantly higher than my competitors for a similarly equipped model. (Usually they're all higher because we're a volume discount seller) but if one of 'em suspects I'm charging them more, they'll claim I'm practically robbing 'em blind in broad daylight!
Yet some of these same customers are indifferent to our country paying four and five times more to sell our products to Foreign traders than we charge them to sell their products to us here! Go figure? 🫤

Some of my customers will drive to 10 different dealerships around town trying to see if my quoted price is significantly higher than my competitors for a similarly equipped model. (Usually they'r all actually higher because we're a high-volume discount seller) but if one of 'em suspects I'm charging them more, they'll practically claim I'm robbing 'em in broad daylight!
Yet some of these same customers willingly contribute to the country paying four and five times to sell our products to our Foreign traders than we charge them to sell their products here. Go figure? 🫤

Yup...nailed it. I believe they're just a bunch of Globalists who don't want to see America dominating the international trade markets.

They want the United States to be 50 small countries that work for them. Hence the civil war talk wrapped in fake 1776 propaganda. All while tearing down George Washington and civil war statues.
As pointed out here. Rewriting history to fit their narrative and tactics.

When Biden took office in 2021 inflation was a little over 1%. By June of 2021 it had shot way up and was on its way to a 40 year high.
For over three years Biden said not to worry about it. It's just about having a little "breathing room" he repeated every month.
When the 2024 campaign season began Biden started claiming that inflation was at 9% when he took office.
You know all the Democrat politicians who can't stop posting about prices now, a little over two months into Trump's term? Good luck finding one post from them about prices during the four years that Biden's policies were destroying the middle class.
One would think the climate change democrats would be gushing over the tariffs and that more products will be made in a climate friendly factories. If climate change wasn't a bunch of ******** . Funny how the climate activists companies will have no problem destroying a whole ecosystem to build a green facility instead of rebuilding a preexisting concrete jungle.Know what's so ironic about this story 82?
