You liberals here don't want to admit it because you hate America but the war in Canada, like all our wars, was a war of liberation. As usual the selfless Americans were fighting to liberate the poor oppressed people from the King of England. But you all are gonna distort the true history of the noble sacrifice of real Americans to blame America first.

WHY DID GEORGE WASHINGTON agree to 49 parallels for the border? Why not an even number like 10 or 25..?

The following remark reflects a fundamental flaw with the narrative that other countries are mopping the floor with us:

Simon Johnson, a professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management, said the concern is that Navarro will push Trump to “step outside” the multilateral trade system, including the World Trade Organization that was designed and built by the U.S. after World War II.

“The irony is not that we built and were central to the creation of the multilateral trade system but that it was deliberately, 100% built entirely with the goal of America first,” Johnson said.

This element touches upon ocean-kat's observation that Europeans may start putting tariffs on agricultural products. Without negotiated trade arrangements, our economy can be manipulated to achieve political ends.
