Lol, no. Trump cancelled the tariffs after both said they'd retaliate, not because they both agreed drugs and cartels are bad.
How is this a "lol no"?
"Take this same deal or we retaliate". Is that not what the meme says. Did he not get the same deal in the end? Was retaliation not always implied? Does this meme imply they agreed cartels are not bad?
The meme makes it seem like Trump backed down because Canada and Mexico tricked Trump into thinking he got something when he really didn't. He backed down because of the retaliation, not because he was tricked.
Wait, so Trump imposed tariffs that are disadvatnageous to the other countries and thought that there won't be any retaliation? Is he that stupid?
Yes
Shhh, I know, but I wanted to hear some of that guy's excuses
