What exactly did Ronald Reagan say about tariffs? | CBC News The Ontario government ad that has triggered President Donald Trump's wrath, uses excerpts of a 1987 speech by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan. Here's what the ad says and the text of Reagan's ori...

The gist of Reagan’s message is that tariffs are a bad idea. The government of Ontario didn’t twist the message at all. Reagan’s words. Nothing less, nothing more. They cited their source and they used real archival material. #nokings

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.

Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:

Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.
