Something I noticed the other day was Fox News covering the jobs report out of Canada and how we lost xyz thousands of jobs and framing that very much in the context of winning for American's and Trump. So I think people should not underestimate the base nature of many Trump supporters and their toxic world view.
Yet we continue to follow Trump regime’s commands to a T.

Have we remove the 100% tariff on Chinese EV yet? (The only two countries in the world that banned Chinese EVs)? Have we stopped sending warships and spy planes to the Chinese coast? Have we stopped the fake Chinese interference/threat in the media and the purge of China-friendly/neutral politicians?

We deserve every abuse from the Trump regime.

We're really dealing with a pretty radical departure from previous American administrations. It will take a long time for Canada to diversify itself away from the United States, even then, their is just the fundamental nature of geography and economic realities that we will have to deal with.

Excuses. Mexico are importing tens of thousands of Chinese vehicles. Internal propaganda and purging of politicians are internal affairs. Troop movements are the purview of our sovereign rights.

Just admit it. we are a bunch of pussies with Stockholm Syndrome.

Donald Trump considers allowing Nvidia to sell more advanced chips in China​

Also in today’s newsletter, US president extends China trade war truce

President Donald Trump said yesterday that he might allow Nvidia to sell a more advanced artificial intelligence chip in China, after confirming he had “negotiated a little deal” to give the US a share of the chipmaker’s revenues from the country. As part of the unprecedented agreement, which the FT revealed on Sunday, the US would take 15 per cent of Nvidia’s revenue on Chinese sales of its H20 processor, which the company introduced to comply with Biden-era controls on AI semiconductors. AMD, another chipmaker, would also provide the same percentage from revenues for its MI308. The H20 is based on Nvidia’s older architecture, but Trump said yesterday that he planned to discuss a new deal with chief executive Jensen Huang to allow the company to sell chips based on its latest Blackwell models to China. That could unlock billions of dollars in sales for Nvidia, which has been lobbying for years for greater access to the Chinese market despite Washington’s national security concerns. The deal — which sparked surprise and outrage among political opponents — comes as US and Chinese officials continue trade negotiations that the president hopes will lead to a summit with China’s leader Xi Jinping. “Beijing must be gloating to see Washington turn export licences into revenue streams,” said Liza Tobin, a China expert who served on the National Security Council in Trump’s first administration, and is a senior fellow at the Jamestown Foundation. John Moolenaar, the Republican head of the House China committee, said: “Export controls are a frontline defence in protecting our national security, and we should not set a precedent that incentivises the government to grant licences to sell China technology that will enhance its AI capabilities.” People familiar with the situation said that some national security officials within the administration were even considering resigning over signals that Trump would allow China to obtain advanced technology from the US.
