It will also make the products more expensive biulding them at home. So the question is can they innovate enough to make a competitive product for less? If not hundreds of billions will wasted if they come home and the world still wants cheaper products they will buy elsewhere. It's 4% of the population they need to please the other 96. The brics currently represent 55 to 60%

I guess when you don't try they just slapp you back lol. I'm sure if we put some thought into it we could of came to a conclusion that would benefit us all. If we wanted to actually make a deal I'm sure no tariffs could of been applied to the deal. Maybe it would of helped with our shootings too as the majority of them is a boarder issue guns coming across illegally.

Invasion? LOL.

My only concern about Canada shutting the lights off in America on Big Game Day is it would make Justin Trudeau so popular he'd be re-elected in a landslide.

And they'll all sink crossing the great lakes. So with this American invasion what do you expect Nato to do? Sure Russia would also throw in support for Alaska.
Come on Joe I'm sure you jest if not get a reality check as as a man spewing south end garbage out a north end opening is a sad site to behold

The Trumpster is just throwing darts to see what sticks. I wouldn’t get too excited. He just doesn’t want to be surrounded by liberals:)

Super Bowl is pretty important to them. You can threaten their food supply without getting much of a reaction but don't mess with America's highest of holy holidays. The Father, the Son and the NFL is America's holy trinity.
