Forbidding Chinese cars to cross the border is a little much.

The way the USA us conducting their international relations is very worrying.

But oh well. They do what they want.

A country that's threatening to make Canada its 51st state says what?
I guess saying making Canada another US state rubbed them up the wrong way. Who would have thought that.
What other choice do they really have? The US has become, to put it politely, entirely unreliable. No nation should be overly dependent on us, and those that are need to diversify ASAP, and there aren't a lot of other options.
The administration has been playing at being as big an assholes as they can and are somehow surprised when others do not like it.
We have the dumbest bullies in the world running the country. What did they expect? Tariffs. Threatening to turn the country into a state. Harassing Canadians living in the U.S. And very purposefully kneecapping the EV market in the U.S. forcing automakers to roll back their investment while the Chinese continue to lower their costs and refine the technology. I can only hope that that the damage to the U.S. and it's standing in the world is not totally irreparable. A lot of the damage is, I am afraid, permanent.
