Highly doubtful.

Keep in mind there is also the whole can of worms which would be getting politicians to even agree what a subsidy is.
So tariffs to protect farmers is wrong. But your subsidies are fine. That’s not a level playing field st all.
Nothing is wrong. You just need to make sure everyone is playing the same game.
Which is what is currently happening and works just fine. Hence the stupidity of Trump caring about Canada being “unfair” being insane.
But it doesn't work fine. Every one of those other nations applies tariffs and changes tariffs against us. When we do it, it is suddenly a problem? Trump has exposed the flaw we have lived with for too long.

We have tolerated trade deficits, nations not paying their share in world defense and humanitarian efforts, etc. I am so happy we finally have a president who cares about the citizens of the US.

Trade deficits are irrelevant. And you’ll recall I highlighted years ago how little you spent on humanitarian efforts. :P

Oh, golly. The Washington Post headlining more "alleged" nonsense regarding Trump. Color me shocked.

Very fake news.

This is an actual response from a functioning human being, folks. The future is grim indeed.

Agreed. So why make a fuss about it?

How does this donation have anything to do with Trump if he completely stopped donating in 2008?

It seems to be a rule of thumb that if Trump accuses you of some wrongdoing, he is overcompensating 200% for doing the exact same shit. He has the mental acuity of a child, it's mind-blowing.

He is so money hungry that he willing lost 600 million dollars of net worth running for president and gives away every cent of his yearly salary as president.

What scum.

Huh? I am not fussing over having tariffs on trade. That’s what you’re saying?? I’m saying Trump arbitrarily trying to break a working system with non-reciprocal protectionism is stupid.

It doesn't work for us, so we are making changes. We have that right, will use it as the others have.
