James Rosen-Birch ⚖️🕊️(@provisionalidea):I think this is the wrong view. Trump’s tariffs are intended to punish countries, force them to bend the knee, and spur American autarchy. Canadian counter-tariffs are (primarily) intended to incentivize Canadian trade diversification, not shape domestic U.S. politics.
