      For now, sure. Why would it not be?

      Maybe next week it will be punished by sending someone to a camp.

    How long until they spend more time and effort banning this while yelling about it constantly than ever saying one bad thing about how Russia is infiltrating our country by doing almost the exact same thing.

      I wonder if Canadians can read and learn that their own tariffs are causing the same problems for them.

          Except Canadian tariffs have, so far, been targeted so as to cause maximum harm to red states and minimum harm to Canadians. Unlike Trump’s sloppy across-the-board approach.

    Let’s see how committed they are to “Free Speech”. Bets on how long until Florida or D.C. bans these ads? (They’ll call it “foreign interference”).

      The First Amendment is gone.

      Trump is openly retaliating against people who criticized him. Our constitution isn’t worth the crumbling paper it’s written on any more.

        It never was, ignoring how it enshrined slavery, the system it built relied on people acting in good faith. The idea that elected officials would always work to preserve democracy.

        Now it’s evident that is not an appropriate system for checks and balances.

      Honestly it kind of is. Though in this case I’m all for it.

    I’d do an ad that says: “We don’t pay the tariffs. You do” — Canada

      Which is pretty true. But it’s funny because Canada has tougher tariffs on the US meaning their people pay more for things there for exactly the same reason. Canada charges a 300% tariff on dairy.

      So yeah. Tariffs are bad. Let’s get rid of them entirely.

        Yeah, that’s only if they make too much. You’re being a jackass on purpose and are probably paid opposition here in the United States. Can it

        Canada can also meet most or all of its own dairy needs. There’s no reason a Canadian should be buying dairy from other countries aside from a few niche/luxury products, so that tariff is fine.

        Charging tariffs on things a country needs to import is crazy.
