Ouin… Pour avoir travaillé au plan d’affaires d’Hilo il y a quelques années, je ne suis pas surpris.

It is possible that the statement “the country is going to boom” holds a different interpretation than what the president intended.

Trump’s 25% auto tariff? A distraction from #Signalgate, timed just so. Then came the whales. Then the threat of “much higher” tariffs if Canada & the EU align.
Populist noise has a cost: it kills predictability — and without that, investment stalls. In energy or autos, same rule applies.
Keep calm.

Au-delà de l’absurde, il y a donc urgence à écouter — non pas pour rire ou s’indigner — mais pour anticiper.

Mais derrière le spectacle, les conséquences sont bien réelles. Une telle politique commerciale, improvisée devant les micros, menace directement des pans entiers de l’économie canadienne, notamment notre industrie automobile et, plus largement, notre souveraineté économique.

Ce style de communication, souvent qualifié de « stream of consciousness », évoque moins la transparence d’un esprit au travail que la logorrhée d’un homme en roue libre. C’est fascinant, inquiétant, et profondément révélateur de l’état actuel du discours politique étatsunien.

Il annonçait fièrement son intention d’imposer des droits de douane de 25 % sur les automobiles, mais au fil des phrases, sans transition, il en est venu à parler… des baleines.

Quand la conscience se déverse en direct
Aujourd’hui encore, Donald Trump a offert à la presse un de ces monologues en flot de conscience dont il a le secret.

Beyond the absurd, there is a need to listen — not to laugh or get outraged, but to anticipate.

But behind the spectacle lie very real consequences. Such off-the-cuff trade policy pronouncements threaten entire sectors of the Canadian economy — our auto industry in particular, and more broadly, our economic sovereignty.

This kind of improvisational speech resembles less a transparent mind at work than the unrestrained outpour of a man off the rails. It’s mesmerizing, unsettling, and deeply revealing of the current state of U.S. political discourse.

When consciousness spills out live
Once again today, Donald Trump delivered one of his signature monologues to the press — a rambling, unfiltered flow of thoughts that began with a proposed 25% tariff on automobiles and somehow ended with… whales.

America has turned on its triends
Trump's abandonment of his country's allies is real and will endure
Winston Churchill is credited with saying that America does the right thing after exhausting the alternatives. Donald Trump has turned that aphorism on its head. In the past 10 days, he has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. Those who thought America was a friend or ally, notably Ukraine and Nato, are dropping once safe assumptions to cope with a world in which America is an unabashed predator. Countries that were treated by Washington as adversaries, notably Vladimir Putin's Russia, are suddenly America's friend.
There were hinge moments in history when the US displayed its character as global leader, such as Dwight Eisen-hower's repudiation of Anglo-French imperialism in the 1956 Suez crisis, or
Ronald Reagan's 1987 exhortation to the Soviet Union to tear down the Berlin Wall. They defined the world's idea of America. Trump's assertion this week that Ukraine "should have never started" the war is the dark version of those. His account of Russia being provoked to invade Ukraine came straight from Putin's talking points. So too was JD Vance's Valentine's Day speech in Munich in which the US vice-president identified liberal democracy as Europe's real threat from within.
These moments will live in infamy.
What do they tell us about what is com-ing? First, there should be no doubt that Trump's contempt for allies and admiration for strongmen is real and will endure. During his first term, Trump's instincts were curbed by the more traditional Republicans around him. Trump 2.0 is the real article. It is entirely possible that figures like Marco Rubio, his secretary of state, or Mike Waltz, his national security adviser, still believe in the US-led alliance that each once championed. Their private thoughts are irrelevant. Each displayed fealty to Trump's predatory vision of America at talks with Russian counterparts in Saudi Arabia this week. Uk…
Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times.
“In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

You can’t add megawatts from different time periods… MW are an instantaneous power value. You could add megawatt-hours (MWh), which are energy values.
