Trump himself has acknowledged the US need for Canadian aluminum – and has largely exempted metals from tariffs

    Let’s redirect those key minerals to the European Union.

      You try that and expect a blockade. Monroe doctrine, look it up and worry…

        The American public wouldn’t support that.

          The American public supports the military above all else. You mess with the military and their effective mission readiness, the people of USA will be United.

            About six-in-ten Americans (61%) disapprove of Trump’s handling of the Iranian conflict

              Nearly nine in ten say it is important for the United States to have the strongest military in the world

              This means if you do anything to affect the US military then expect the public to turn on you

                American here who has lived in Canada by choice for many years now and am now a dual citizen. I’m from a military family and my family doesn’t even support Trump or Chief Makeup Queen that Trump appointed to head the military. Your assumption regarding public support might be applicable in Alabama or some shithole state but most Americans neither approve of Trump nor the actions that Trump has forced the military into taking. Supporting soldiers and vets is a lot different than supporting the stupid missions the government forces them to carry out.

                The vast majority of Americans including many Republicans are sick of the US meddling in other countries’ affairs. The US as the hegemon Monroe envisioned only exists in history books and MAGAt idiot minds.

                Also your “sources” are a) outdated and b) biased to say the least lol. Cope harder MAGA troll. Bye now.
