00:00:43.740 Well, what this is leading to is over the weekend, Trump threatens a 100% tariff on Canada if it makes a deal with China and Carney pushes back.
00:00:55.260 But let me read the first one first.
00:00:56.840 If Governor Carney of the 51st state, Canada, thinks he is going to make Canada a drop-off port for China to send goods and products into the U.S., he is sorely mistaken.
00:01:11.420 China will eat Canada alive, completely devour it, including the destruction of their businesses, social fabric, and general way of life.
00:01:19.800 If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with 100% tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.
00:01:28.560 Thank you for your attention to this matter, President DJT.
00:01:32.440 Rob, can you pull up the clip of Carney responding to this?
00:01:36.200 Because obviously, if you remember, it looked like him and Carney were getting along because he chose Carney over Pierre Polyev when Pierre lacked diplomacy.
00:01:45.500 Everybody saw that when he would only eat the apple and not go meet with people.
00:01:49.220 And here's Carney responding to the president.
00:01:51.780 How are you responding to Trump's threats of 100% tariffs?
00:01:55.320 Well, the first thing is that, you know, Canada respects our engagements, our commitments.
00:02:03.720 Il y a des engagements dans l'ACM, we have commitments under KUSMA that not to pursue free trade agreements with non-market economies without prior notification.
00:02:16.860 We have no intention of doing that with China or any other non-market economy.
00:02:22.500 What we've done with China is to rectify some issues that developed in the last couple of years.
00:02:29.100 In many respects, we're going to use the expression back to the future with respect to EVs, with respect to agriculture, with respect to fish products and other food products, but with additional protections.
00:02:42.280 So, for example, back in 2023, we didn't have a cap on the number of EVs.
00:02:47.200 We didn't have a requirement for a large proportion of those EVs to be affordable, highly affordable EVs for Canadians.
00:02:54.320 So, it's entirely consistent with KUSMA, with our obligations, which we very much respect.
00:03:01.600 You can pause it right there.
00:03:02.380 Tom, what's going on here?
00:03:03.500 So, let me translate that for you.
00:03:05.960 China got Canada to agree to take BYD, which is the largest EV maker in the world by number of units, and to send over their $30,000 EVs, which is not going to be good for Tesla.
00:03:20.840 But what Mark Carney is doing there is dancing around a simple truth.
00:03:26.340 He went back and renegotiated with China, which he feels is a trade deal that's good for Canada, and that's how he's spinning it.
00:03:34.620 Meanwhile, President Trump is pointing out that the $2.3 trillion economy of Canada, which is less than half of California, that, by the way, Rob, I don't know if you can find this in a flash.
00:03:50.220 I didn't tell you, I believe, Pat, 21% of their GDP is what they import from us, and 17% of their GDP is what they export to us.
00:04:03.220 So, I think it's 35%, 36% of Canada's $2.3 trillion GDP depends on trade with the United States.
00:04:14.180 So, there it is.
00:04:15.620 Imports from the U.S. constitute 19% of Canada's GDP.
00:04:19.520 So, it's like you're making a deal with China that Trump is trying to work with right now in corner, and yet one-third of your GDP depends on back-and-forth trade with the United States.
00:04:31.120 It's, are you high?
00:04:33.220 Do you not think that Trump's going to go, wait, what's he doing?
00:04:36.940 Sir, he made some sort of conciliation deal with China, and he's going to take the low-cost EVs over into, what about General Motors EVs?
00:04:44.980 What about Tesla EVs?
00:04:46.140 Well, it's going to hurt them because they're bringing over the China car.
00:04:49.020 And he says, what the hell is on his mind?
00:04:51.280 Hang on.
00:04:51.840 Where's my phone?
00:04:52.440 So, it's like, and then there comes Trump.
00:04:55.540 Governor Carney does it again.
00:04:57.480 That's what's going on.
00:04:58.400 He cut a deal with China when Trump's trying to corner China.
00:05:01.700 Umberto.
00:05:03.020 Let's trade Alberta for Minnesota.
00:05:05.840 All right?
00:05:06.980 That's the only trade that we need.
00:05:08.980 Straight up.
00:05:09.440 Straight up.
00:05:10.260 We grab Alberta, they keep Minnesota, and we're even.
00:05:13.920 I sent Rob a chart, and I got this from Tom.
00:05:18.660 Like, to show, like, can you please try to find Canada on this map?
00:05:21.760 Let me look.
00:05:22.100 All right?
00:05:23.140 I can't.
00:05:23.920 Actually find Canada, Rob.
00:05:25.280 Where is it?
00:05:26.380 It has to be really small.
00:05:28.540 There it is.
00:05:29.260 Up at the top at 12 o'clock.
00:05:31.000 Top right there.
00:05:31.500 All right.
00:05:31.960 12 o'clock.
00:05:32.200 And by the way, United States last year.
00:05:33.780 Above USA and Mexico.
00:05:35.020 That has grown.
00:05:35.800 Canada's 2.3, and the United States is 31.
00:05:39.680 So, what are we talking about?
00:05:41.760 All right?
00:05:42.380 Like, Trump said it.
00:05:44.220 Like, Canada depends on the U.S.
00:05:45.800 They're nothing without us.
00:05:47.300 And they're trying to play ball and get Chinese cars to their borders.
00:05:51.220 Like, I don't know.
00:05:52.340 Like, I think they look a lot bigger than they actually are.
00:05:55.180 They shouldn't be even sitting at the table and probably banned from Canada already.
00:05:58.520 But it's not a good look at all.
00:06:02.120 Look at it from the position of China.
00:06:05.220 Right?
00:06:05.600 I was about to say Taiwan.
00:06:06.680 Taiwan.
00:06:07.080 Taiwan.
00:06:07.240 If you look at the position of, and that's exactly where I was going, if you look at the
00:06:09.940 position from China, China's probably sitting there saying, wait a minute, who's Canada
00:06:14.320 to us?
00:06:16.000 Taiwan.
00:06:16.960 Why are you building relationships with them?
00:06:19.840 The U.S. is like, because we can.
00:06:20.940 He said, well, I'm going to do business with Canada.
00:06:23.420 And U.S. is like, no, you can't.
00:06:25.760 And China says, why can't I?
00:06:27.840 And U.S. says, because Taiwan is a very different relationship.
00:06:35.200 You're just trying to get to Canada to disrupt our relationship.
00:06:38.460 And in this sense, you know, if Carney decides to play ball with China, which it looks like
00:06:45.800 he's fallen forward, U.S. offers security, protection.
00:06:50.380 U.S. offers so many different things.
00:06:53.200 You know, Canada is safe by association.
00:06:57.260 You know, it's like going to a nightclub with the toughest guy in the street thinking you're
00:07:00.680 tough.
00:07:01.320 You're not tough.
00:07:02.080 You're safe because you went to the club with the toughest guy on the street.
00:07:05.900 Go to that same club in the hood without that tough guy.
00:07:09.900 You're walking in a very different way.
00:07:11.480 Make sense?
00:07:12.280 That tough guy is America.
00:07:14.060 Yeah.
00:07:14.340 When he walks, he's like, hey, what's up?
00:07:15.820 Yeah.
00:07:15.980 And so what are you going to do?
00:07:17.680 He's like, well, what are you going to say something?
00:07:21.440 Yeah.
00:07:21.660 And then all of a sudden, America leaves.
00:07:23.680 Hi.
00:07:24.260 How are you?
00:07:25.460 How is everything?
00:07:27.040 Family's good.
00:07:27.700 How's your daughter doing?
00:07:29.340 You didn't care about my daughter last year.
00:07:30.840 Now you do?
00:07:31.600 Yeah, I really do.
00:07:32.700 I always did.
00:07:33.440 No, you didn't.
00:07:33.940 Yeah, we saw your buddy leave.
00:07:34.660 He didn't go to the bathroom.
00:07:35.620 He left.
00:07:36.320 Yes.
00:07:36.720 So I get what Trump is doing here.
00:07:39.980 Man, my only thing is, let me tell you what my only concern is.
00:07:42.640 My only thing is, does he have enough time left to negotiate this aggressively?
00:07:48.040 Does he have enough time left to continue negotiating this aggressively?
00:07:50.960 I don't know.
00:07:52.380 It's either he's got 10 months or he's got what?
00:07:56.100 What's the other one?
00:07:57.020 34 months.
00:07:58.020 That's what he's got left.
00:07:59.040 10 months or 34 months?
00:08:00.340 Who knows what happens afterwards?
00:08:02.560 Can you really get everything he wants to get done in the next 10 months or 34 months?
00:08:07.820 Do you think he can?
00:08:08.940 In the next 10 months or 34 months?
00:08:10.820 I believe in him.
00:08:12.320 You believe they can get everything done in the next 10 months or 34 months?
00:08:15.660 Tom, what do you think?
00:08:16.400 No, I think we've now entered into the window of certain international parties are going to
00:08:23.300 stall because now they're saying, hang tight, hang tight.
00:08:27.460 All you have to do is get through the American summer because then this guy is going to have
00:08:31.420 trouble in the midterms and then he's going to have to do different things on trade.
00:08:34.940 I think that China and others may be about to play that.
00:08:40.540 I think he can get 40% of it, 50% of it done, Pat, but there's a couple of big things I think
00:08:45.660 are going to be really tough to get done before the midterms and after the midterms, if they're
00:08:50.920 too nasty, it makes it more difficult.
00:08:53.540 I agree.
00:08:54.040 By the way, Rob, you ran a very good poll if you can pull it up.
00:08:57.120 They got 2,000 votes already.
00:08:58.560 I think it's a good sample to look at.
00:09:00.540 Rob ran a poll saying who needs who more?
00:09:02.840 Here, Canada needs the U.S.
00:09:04.600 The U.S. needs Canada.
00:09:05.780 They both need each other.
00:09:06.880 Neither needs the other.
00:09:08.020 Ready?
00:09:09.080 77% said Canada needs the U.S.
00:09:12.240 3% says the U.S. need Canada.
00:09:15.140 15% said they need each other.
00:09:17.360 And 5% said neither needs each other.
00:09:20.860 Okay?
00:09:21.420 It's pretty wild when you look at that because if you take out the last two options they
00:09:27.220 both need or neither needs and you just take the top two, it would end up being around
00:09:32.000 96.5% to 3.5%.
00:09:35.260 96.5% Canada needs U.S.
00:09:38.440 3.5% U.S. needs Canada.
00:09:43.760 Carney better kind of sit down and figure out how to negotiate with this guy in the U.S.
00:09:49.940 or else, you know, this is just going to keep going.
00:09:53.040 By the way, look at what happened to it.
00:09:54.120 It just went to 73.
00:09:55.600 This is not looking pretty for Canada.
00:09:57.340 When it comes to the moves that we've seen Trump doing on defense, we're talking about
00:10:00.980 the Golden Dome, right?
00:10:02.800 Does Canada want to be outside the Golden Dome?
00:10:04.700 You have a shot at protecting your family, your country.
00:10:06.740 Your country for free.
00:10:07.840 For free.
00:10:08.320 We're talking about Greenland.
00:10:09.840 For free, yeah.
00:10:10.200 Trump is not messing around the Arctic, Pat, and he's going to do everything that is in
00:10:15.000 his power, this national defense.
00:10:17.460 And Canada needs great leadership.
00:10:19.080 That's what Canada needs.
00:10:20.160 You're talking about a country that has a GDP that is bigger than Russia, and you're talking
00:10:24.920 about something that by comparison is small.
00:10:27.880 But we have this robust trading partner.
00:10:30.660 They need better leadership.
00:10:32.720 There is a reason, after those truckers were stopped there, that when you're talking about
00:10:38.520 trading Alberta, Albertans were saying, trade us.
00:10:42.220 Albertans were saying, hey, you know what?
00:10:44.760 We'll be ultra-North Texas.
00:10:46.940 Let's make a swap.
00:10:48.300 And they weren't aware of what's going on in Minnesota.
00:10:51.640 But Minnesota can go into the I've lost my mind Quebecois division and do it.
00:10:58.280 But you have to remember, there's a country up there that's got a lot of conservative people
00:11:02.100 that are in Alberta in particular.
00:11:06.420 And they have built a GDP bigger than Canada.
00:11:10.120 But right now, they've got terrible leadership.
00:11:13.620 And the last election, you think we were in pain about our choices?
00:11:17.240 They were in pain going, can you imagine the people that were moderate and conservative
00:11:21.680 going, is Paul Averre actually going to blow this?
00:11:24.960 I can't believe this.
00:11:26.100 He did.
00:11:26.320 It's one of the worst ever in the history of mankind, at least in our lifetime, with what
00:11:29.940 he did.
00:11:30.200 And honestly, I don't want to go and give him a hard time about it.
00:11:33.820 But he's probably one of the...
00:11:35.240 We would never do that.
00:11:36.200 No, not right now.
00:11:37.120 I don't want to do that.
00:11:37.980 But, you know, a guy menekes me from Canada.
00:11:42.760 And he doesn't want to leave Canada.
00:11:44.920 He loves Canada.
00:11:46.100 But he says, Pat, you have to realize in Canada, this is the fear people have in Canada.
00:11:50.520 You can't say anything pro about Canada.
00:11:52.780 God forbid you say anything pro about Canada, you won't even believe what happens to it.
00:11:56.280 You say anything pro about Trump in Canada.
00:11:58.920 Well, you know, Trump's got a good point.
00:12:00.740 Trump's got this.
00:12:01.340 Trump's got that.
00:12:02.520 Until they get over that fear of the values and principles, being comfortable talking about,
00:12:08.400 maybe Trump is right about a couple things.
00:12:10.660 Until they do that, they're going to continue living in this socialistic, whatever regime
00:12:14.980 you want to talk about in Canada.
00:12:16.060 And by the way, some of the best people in the world, if you want to go have conversation,
00:12:20.420 they're funny.
00:12:21.180 They're loud.
00:12:21.860 They're cool to be around.
00:12:24.040 They're tough in their own way.
00:12:27.840 You know, they're, and by the way, just so you know, good luck walking around anywhere
00:12:31.980 here without running into Canadians.
00:12:34.960 I'll get menekes from guys.
00:12:36.320 We'll say, Pat, I just moved from Toronto to Fort Lauderdale.
00:12:39.780 How do I make friends here?
00:12:41.360 I'm trying to find something.
00:12:42.300 I got a family.
00:12:43.020 I got kids.
00:12:43.620 I'm a businessman.
00:12:44.360 I'm this, I'm that.
00:12:45.120 I said, menek me.
00:12:46.340 I'll introduce you to the boardroom.
00:12:47.660 We'll become a member.
00:12:48.660 You'll make friends.
00:12:49.260 And it happens all the flipping time here.
00:12:53.100 All right, let's continue.
00:12:54.280 Let me get to the next story here.
00:12:55.360 Next story I want to get to is Scott Jennings.
00:12:59.260 And I know I'm going back to one of the stories, but I have to show you this because there's
00:13:02.540 two clips I want to show.
00:13:04.140 This is the fear porn that you have to be thinking about.
00:13:06.400 Scott Jennings has to explain to CNN why immigration enforcement officers run smoothly in other
00:13:13.140 states, but not in Minnesota.
00:13:14.800 Watch this exchange here, folks.
00:13:16.680 This is Scott Does a Clinic.
00:13:18.400 Go forward.
00:13:19.100 On this new reporting that we just heard from our Christian homes at the White House, that
00:13:22.920 President Trump is frustrated with the messaging around his immigration efforts and wants to
00:13:28.940 change the narrative.
00:13:30.160 How do you see it?
00:13:31.160 Well, I'd be frustrated, too, if I were faced with this wall of propaganda every single day.
00:13:35.520 And if I were faced with these recalcitrant Democrats in Minnesota who simply won't cooperate
00:13:40.320 with the federal government all over this country, states and cities all over the country,
00:13:43.700 you have cooperation going on between the locals and the federal government.
00:13:47.200 You don't see any chaos.
00:13:48.120 You see very orderly transitions of illegal aliens into federal custody.
00:13:51.880 They go into deportation.
00:13:53.280 It works just fine.
00:13:55.000 The only difference in Minnesota is you have Walls and Fry and Flanagan and the rest of
00:14:00.000 these local Democrats who don't want to cooperate.
00:14:02.140 They think that Minnesota somehow should exist in, I guess, some state of secession where
00:14:06.980 federal laws don't apply to people inside the state of Minnesota.
00:14:09.980 It is causing chaos.
00:14:11.540 And if I were the president, I would be frustrated about that, too, because, you know, narratives
00:14:15.940 aside, he's the chief law enforcement officer of the United States, and he has to enforce
00:14:19.940 the law in all 50 states.
00:14:21.820 Bingo.
00:14:22.140 Bingo.
00:14:22.700 Very simple.
00:14:24.060 Go ahead.
00:14:25.100 Cooperate.
00:14:26.260 Simplify.
00:14:26.740 Let's work as a team.
00:14:28.420 But watch this.
00:14:29.280 Jake Tapper has a guest on that's selling fear porn at the highest level.
00:14:33.320 Folks, just letting you know, even Jake had to stop this guy.
00:14:37.100 I don't know if he fully does or not.
00:14:38.780 Rob, you know which clip I'm talking about?
00:14:40.220 Yep.
00:14:40.640 Even Jake was stunned.
00:14:42.000 Say that again?
00:14:42.920 Yeah.
00:14:43.160 Jake Tapper's stunned.
00:14:44.340 As Minnesota business owners suggest, ICE agents could start putting people in ovens.
00:14:53.540 You're joking.
00:14:54.480 This is not...
00:14:55.020 No, no.
00:14:55.320 Rob, is this the clip?
00:14:57.680 Yes, sir.
00:14:58.120 Hang on one second.
00:14:58.420 And is this from...
00:14:59.740 Is this from...
00:15:02.580 What do you call it?
00:15:03.480 From the last 48 hours?
00:15:06.500 This is the rum...
00:15:07.260 It's on Rumble?
00:15:08.500 It's on Rumble.
00:15:09.100 I'm trying to get it up, but I have two ads that I have to play.
00:15:11.700 But yes, I believe this was from this weekend.
00:15:13.360 Let me see.
00:15:14.220 If I can't...
00:15:14.820 If it's going to be a long time, Rob, we'll skip to a different story, because if it's not
00:15:18.880 in a different place...
00:15:19.620 I'll go to a different story until this one freshens up, and we'll come back to it.
00:15:25.120 So, America's turning 250 this year.
00:15:27.600 And by the way, we're doing something special on the 250th, 4th of July.
00:15:34.060 Stay tuned.
00:15:34.740 I'll announce it to you when it's ready to announce.
00:15:37.360 It's going to be wild.
00:15:37.960 But we're going to do a handful of special pieces of merch, limited edition, numbered.
00:15:43.700 Okay?
00:15:44.100 This one's going to be out of 250, with the number 250.
00:15:48.200 So, it's numbered out of 250 for the 250th year celebration of U.S.
00:15:52.380 It will not last long.
00:15:53.940 Rob, play this clip.
00:15:55.800 Future looks bright.
00:15:57.140 We're excited about this year.
00:15:58.460 With all the chaos that's happening, when we break down to you what is really going on,
00:16:02.340 what makes sense to you.
00:16:03.100 But having said that, Rob, go ahead and play this clip.
00:16:06.060 We don't just make products.
00:16:08.980 We carry a legacy.
00:16:11.580 Built on American craftsmanship, intention, and pride.
00:16:16.600 250 years of history.
00:16:20.120 Refined for today.
00:16:21.360 Every detail tells a story.
00:16:27.920 Every piece stands for who we are.
00:16:32.880 This is tradition.
00:16:36.100 Reimagined.
00:16:38.360 This is our 250 years, limited edition collection.
00:16:43.880 The future looks bright at 250.
00:16:46.180 All right, guys, this is all I'll tell you.
00:16:51.880 Good luck if you sat on this one.
00:16:54.800 If you wait, by the way, for some of you guys that unfortunately will watch this this afternoon
00:16:58.240 because you wait for the clips, you can find the items that people buy on eBay.
00:17:02.920 That'll be the only place you'll be able to get it.
00:17:04.600 The hat will not last a long time.
00:17:06.320 Again, it's limited merch.
00:17:08.360 So, it's numbered out of 250.
00:17:09.860 If you go to eBay afterwards, you may find it because these things are not going to last
00:17:13.600 but 30 minutes.
00:17:14.840 They'll be gone in no time.
00:17:15.800 Every time we do limited merch, the hat comes in a box that says Future Looks Bright
00:17:21.920 and the logo, VT, right on there.
00:17:24.580 So, go to vtmerch.com.
00:17:26.520 Place your order.
00:17:27.280 Go to vtmerch.com, Rob.
00:17:28.840 If you could, just go to the website.
00:17:30.260 If you go to vtmerch.com on the cover, you'll see the 250.
00:17:33.460 Get the sweater because it's cold.
00:17:35.300 Get the shirt and get the hat.
00:17:37.080 And if not for you, buy it for somebody else as well.
00:17:39.420 Having said that.
00:17:40.120 We can close up the shield.
00:17:40.700 That shield is just amazing.
00:17:42.140 It is amazing.
00:17:42.920 It is amazing.
00:17:43.660 It's sick.
