‘Canadians don’t want to come here any more’: anger over Trump squeezes US border businesses

Angered by Donald Trump’s hefty tariffs and annexation threats – and compounded by fears of border detentions and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crackdowns – Canadians have stayed away, refusing to spend their hard-earned dollars in local border towns.

A totally logical reaction from canadians and anyone else.

As a way of replacing #tarriffs that #SCOTUS ruled illegal

Just bought gas at Costco.

I want to thank Trump and the Republican Party for creating the ongoing war crime in Iran thereby raising my, and our, gas cost by over 50 cents a gallon. Good job fellas!

#JBPritzker wants a refund for Trump's illegal #tarriffs

"Your tariff #taxes wreaked havoc on #farmers, enraged our allies, and sent #grocery prices through the roof. This morning, your hand-picked #SupremeCourt Justices notified you that they are also unconstitutional."

"On behalf of the people of Illinois, I demand a refund of $1,700 for every family in Illinois."

5,105,448 (households in IL) X $1,700
= $8,679,261,000.
