Trump is doing nothing more than pandering to the oil industry because they want to export LNG from Alaska. Besides, American refineries are largely equipped to handle heavier crude - Canada is helping us out.

We only have a (very) small trade deficit with Canada if you include oil. Canada is subsidizing what we do import to help us out (you know - we’re supposed to be friends).

Don’t believe the b/s that comes out of Trump’s mouth.

You do realize that Canada is subsidizing oil for the US, right?

Completely agree.

I might be wrong, but I think the Palestinian community had Kamala’s attention and a real opportunity to affect policy if she won the election.

Trump obviously doesn’t care what anyone thinks. He only cares about money/power.

Yep. This article explains the problem well: https://taxfoundation.org/testimony/tariffs-alternatives-boost-us-competitiveness/

Tariffs have an overall negative effect on the US. Not only will products become more expensive (domestically produced and imported), the dollar will also strengthen, reducing exports to other countries. It’s a lose-lose situation.
