Who wants to bet that the idea of retaliatory tariffs wasn’t gamed out beforehand and they have no strategy?

He has a concept of a strategy.

US companies would pay a total rate of 104% on Chinese imports.

The more money people lose, the more desperate they become. This is going to get interesting. Who goes after Trump first? The ultra rich or the average working class?

I’ve been using Thunderbird for email for years. I use it with some SMTP servers on shared hosting platforms, a yahoo account and a few gmail accounts - one with calendars. I don’t have any problems with it. Runs stable, doesn’t crash or do weird things. My only complaint would be search is a little clunky, but it works.

I had to use Outlook client for year at another job and that client was hot garbage.

There wasn’t.

I made one.

I don’t know anyone in Canada still planning trips to the USA. My cousin spends 2-3 months out of the year in California. She’s been doing it for 10 years now. She had cancelled all those plans going forward.

There is even more of a risk for Canadians to go to the US. It’s always been dangerous in the US with the insane amount of guns in the average idiots hands, but now we’ve got Ice Bros itching to hurt people as well. Fuck that noise.

The US really doesn’t offer us anything we can’t get from another safer country.

The girlfriend and I (both Canadian in Canada) were just planning a summer trip to Niagara Falls like 30 minutes ago. Neither of us have been. We were looking at flights and didn’t realize we were looking at flights to Niagara Falls airport in the US. We were both like “Whoa. Nope!”

If this had been last year, we would have flown into either airport and visited both sides of the border. But there is not a chance in hell I’m crossing to the US side during this trip. I’m absolutely not taking a chance of wrecking my vacation, or weeks of my life, getting nabbed by some Nazi Ice Bro and shipped to a detention camp in Arizona.

I’m in Canada and Facebook is huge for my business. We get more bang out of a free social media post than paying for advertisements anywhere.

I fricking HATE IT.

On a personal level, I almost never use facebook. I refuse to put it on my phone and really only use it not to post stuff for the business - which I do through a 3rd party social media app.

I got banned from Reddit and I honestly don’t know why. I could get around it, but I took it as a positive thing being Canadian and Reddit being Reddit.

Whatever. I’m here now.
