Why are we tariffing our friends and NOT our enemies? There are international psychology situations going on here. France wants to separate Europe from America because they can't trust America to keep its treaty promises. Personally, I think that it will take a LONG, LONG time to UNWIND this situation.

This reads like a sound-bite I heard lately. America's foot is fine, Canada has been, as we have, a great neighbor and when a deal is struck it will continue. I love our Canadian friends.
About Russia, there are so many sanctions in place now that little is left. But that little that is left is a great negotiating tool when those talks begin. We have stood through thick and thin with other nations throughout history and now they are trying to figure out how to throw us under the bus because we no longer will stick extra cash in their pockets?
Shame on America for correcting a wrong and wanting equality for trade, an issue which has gone on for years. What are we thinking?
