Trump says a Canadian ad misstated Ronald Reagan's views on tariffs. Here are the facts and context
President Donald Trump pulled out of trade talks with Canada Thursday night, furious over what he called a βfakeββ television ad from Ontarioβs provincial government that quoted former U.S.
The "Streisand Effect" is taking hold because Trump is STILL whining about Ontario's commercial, which accurately highlighted Reagan's contempt for tariffs.
Everyone now realizes that Reagan hated tariffs, loathed Trump's policies, and knew they'd backfire, eventually.
Cry harder, Trump! π

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.
