Maybe they convinced him that this was the first step, that hitting us economically would enable him to annex Canada as his 51st state, making him the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/bigliest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bigliest</span></a> and <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/bestest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bestest</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/President" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>President</span></a> since the Louisiana purchase.</p><p>So this hurts the USA, Canada, Mexico economically.
