The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

Nobody said ALL Americans chose this… But the majority did. He won the majority vote. America as a whole chose this. The first time around, you could argue that since the lost the popular vote by millions, that America didn’t choose him. But not this time. This time, America chose him and said it with their whole chest.

And sure, you could argue that “didn’t vote” actually won. But that’s still on the American public for refusing to actually get to the polls. If they cared enough to avoid it, they would have voted instead of staying home. But they didn’t care, and their non-vote said “I’m okay with either side. Doesn’t matter to me.”
