  Trump is using the same strategy as he's doing in Iran:  He's making it so  
  hot  
  for the Elitists in charge that there will be an internal regime change  
  without  
  direct U.S. intervention.

  Because all the manufacturing/innovation can't survive under a socialist  
  gov't.

  Canadian "leaders" are Elitists.  They think that they dictate the terms to  
  the  
  non-Elitists.  They don't know how to negotiate.  Because negotiation can  
  only  
  happen between equals.

  But no one else wants to buy their Special High Intensity Training.
