    He cited the influx of migrants at the southern border, the flow of fentanyl into the United States and the trade deficit the U.S. has with its neighbors.

    43 pounds. That’s how much fentanyl was seized at the US-Canada border in 2024. 43 pounds. He’s going to destroy a $1 trillion trade relationship over 43 pounds. If you voted for this asshole you are an utter moron.

      To be fair, fentanyl is ridiculously potent, so 43 lbs can do a lot of damage.

      It’s still insane to cite that as the reason for the tariffs. I am no longer buying US imports. He has threatened to invade multiple times, and I will stand on guard.

        The vast majority comes from Indian and Chinese pharma companies through legit ports of entry.
