If drumf refuses to release information from our USDA. I'm beginning to think the only thing that will slow his bullshit economic sanctions from other countries.
Canada could speak or act out about the EPA gag and any deregulating that is going to be done. It's not like our soon to be shitty air will stop at the border.
And on a side note...I have read how the pull out from TPP will effect farmers in the Central Valley area in California. I worked in that area for 3 months and it was covered with huge roadside signs that said Farmers for Trump. Wonder how they feel about their support now? I read that at least 60 to 70 percent of their crops sales were helped by the TPP. Not that he will care about California but if it is effecting those farmers badly what is it doing to the ones in his red states?
And I made a point of posting on my FB timeline..to remind my FB people who supported him...when they file their taxes in a few months to remember that WE are paying for the wall building that he will be announcing in the morning. Drumf himself said that it would take "a year to a year and and a half" to arrange an agreement with Mexico for wall building payment. Yet the wall building is going to be started so where is that money coming from? US taxpayers. He is probably figuring in that 1 to 1.5 yrs no one will remember to ask "hey, did we get that wall building check from Mexico yet.
Having also worked down by the CA/Mexico border and visited the Arizona/Mexico border I can say that there are also a shitload of US citizens who are medical tourists, especially dental tourist, who jump across the border to get their medical care IN Mexico. What happens to them if Mexico gets pissed off enough? Or is drumf going to try and ban the medical tourists next so they don't spend their money there? Good luck to the drumf voters who are happy to use Mexico when they want less expensive medical care but at the same time want that wall built!

(45,494 posts)come on, who are you wanting to punish? We could have a size requirement to punish only the large corporate factory farms.
A big reason Mexico and Canada have cheaper medical care is they don't have the rigorous regulations of our FDA.
Personally, I'd like to send him back to Germany or Scotland and let them deal with him.
