The Real Reason For Tariffs: Trump's Dirty Oil Deal
Why Canada? When you see this pieces, you realize this is a dirty oil deal, and Canada is doomed
Why Canada? Ask yourself that question a million times and it does not make sense on the surface. Trade deficit? Canada is #6 on the list—Vietnam is higher. Vietnam! Is it border security?

Still, that is not zero, and even further, it is not worthy of a 25% tariff on goods.
Why Canada? Keep asking that question. You may be mesmerized by all of the backlash, and the insanity of what is going on, and that is exactly the state they want you in so you overlook the real reason. And it is dirty. And, Canada will pay the price along with US consumers. While this is occurring, the Trump’s will be enriching themselves to the tune of billions alone the way.
