Introduction
From Arlene Dickinson via Facebook: “Everyone is trying to figure out the endgame. What does Trump really want? What’s his strategy? What’s his angle? How do we work with him to give him what he really wants? People keep asking how to make him stop coming at trade with tariffs.
What Does Trump Want?
Here’s what he wants: He wants money. He wants power. He wants control. It’s that devious, and it’s that obvious. This isn’t about trade imbalances. It’s not about fairness. It’s not about drugs, immigration, or national security. Those are just the stories he tells to justify what he’s really after—leveraging fear and economic pressure to serve his own interests. If it really were about those things, then negotiating honestly and fairly with a friend, ally and neighbor would be the obvious and most productive way to accomplish those goals but that’s not what’s happening because this isn’t about solving problems—it’s about creating leverage.
Who Pays the Price?
It’s not Trump, or the politicians who stand beside him, but workers, families, and businesses on both sides of the border who pay the price. It’s people on both sides of the U.S.-Canada border watching their costs go up, their jobs disappear, and their futures get thrown into uncertainty.
Conclusion
The truth is this isn’t about protecting America but about protecting Trump – and the sooner we see that clearly, the sooner we can stop letting him dictate our future.”
