What was it Reagan said about verifying?

When baldfaced lies are so easily verified, it boggles the mind that anyone takes Maga or the Reagan library people even a little seriously.

"Go watch the whole unedited speech. Wait, not like that!"

He went too weak on Canada. If he was serious he would cancel the contract to have Dehavilland in Canada build that cargo plane for Guatemala that Trump used Pentagon funds for.
Because Guatemala is a country too poor to buy its own stuff and needs all Americans to buy their things for them and have Canadians build them with USA dollars.

Directly quoting Reagan (albeit slightly out of order) in one short advertisement: "this is a foreign conspiracy to interfere with American Democracy!"

Congresspeople taking 9-figure donations from AIPAC: "business as usual"

Anyone who doesn't see the circus at this point is just plain blind.

He terminates negotiations every few weeks. Who cares anymore.

I just watched the entire ad as it aired.

To me, it came across as being critical of Canada's past tariff policies.

I can't figure out why Canada would air a commercial highlighting the flaws in their own policies though.

Us Usonian peeps really are cooked, eh?

I wish Canucks would mind their own business. Ronald Reagan--along with Margaret Thatcher--are the two biggest reasons why we live in a free-for-all Neoliberal economy completely run by monopolistic companies, slave labor and billionaire oligarchs. Running an ad mocking Trump by putting Reagan up as an example is like using Ayn Rand, another horrible person, to mock him. Reagan swung a wrecking ball through the American economy, too. The last thing Americans want is to prop him up as a model.

Man it's almost like it's a short term thing not a total abandon of diplomatic resources xD. Almost like businessess and government do it all the time.

by the by, essays and statements put out by government entities are propoganda, not ads. they count as government statements and government states demeaning your trade partner typically would result in a tempory or permanent cessation of negotiation. Would you make deals with a man insulting you behind your back?

i sure love paying 10% extra for Canadian goods because a president was triggered by a commercial

IKR. I can't imagine having to pay $2.20 for a pine 2x4 instead of just $2.

Nor can I imagine paying $39 for maple syrup instead of $35.

Ronald Reagan

Reagan 'got the ball rolling' , jumpstarted things and the others after that ran away with it.

I dug a hole in a garden , the dog copied me.
It then made twenty holes in the garden.
One was more than enough.

You going to blame me for the work of a Dog?

-I will unlikely respond to any answer you give not out of any ill manners but this is just an example type question.

I remember this when he actually said it. My father used to talk about NAFTA all the time, which was signed a few years later, built largely on the spirit of this by Reagan

It was silly for Trump to end talks over this video, and it was also silly of my gov't to run this video for some sort of cheap gotcha points.

Carney isn't Mulroney, and Trump isn't Reagan.

Seems neither gov't wants to cooperate here in good faith at this time.

Trade with Canada has not been free not fair since Trudeau took over. Our tariffs are evening out what Canada has been doing under Trudeau with theirs. If the new PM had any integrity, he'd have reversed what Trudeau did, but instead chose to double down. Canadians are suffering Uber those decisions. Americans are not. No wonder so many Canadian business are leaving for the US.
