Trump ends trade talks with Canada after Reagan’s television announcement. Trump accuses the Canadian government of misrepresenting and falsifying a video by former president Ronald Reagan about the imposition of tariffs.
The discussion now centers on an advertisement, paid for by the government of Ontario, one of the provinces of Canada, where one sees, and hears, the former president of the United States, Ronald Reagan, in images from 1987, saying that tariffs are bad for Americans.
The current president of the United States, Donald Trump, says it is all false and announces the end of trade negotiations with Canada. The White House has imposed heavy tariffs on imports of thousands of Canadian products. Mainly from the automotive and steel industries.
The current Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney, has been trying to negotiate relief from these fees, but the negotiations are not working. and now Trump, he even says, that they are over.
On the domestic front, the American president also does not spare accusations against the Democratic Party, which he accuses of being responsible for the country’s paralysis.
The lack of an agreement on the budget caused the United States to go into ‘shutdown’, which means that all operations considered non-essential are suspended, and thousands of federal workers are temporarily suspended.
“I think the Democrats have gone completely crazy, and we don’t know what they’re going to do, because they don’t care about the people. I really think they have no leadership. They have a lot of unintelligent people”, says the US head of state.
On another front of conflict, Donald Trump seems to have taken a step back and says that, after all, he will no longer send the National Guard to San Francisco, to, says the president, control the streets and combat crime.
The change of ideas did not prevent further demonstrations, like this one, against Trump, at a military base in California.
