Hail to the Lunatic-in-Chief

This week Americans will be able to enjoy President Trump's 35% import tariff coming to bear on those sneaky Canucks who, as the Emperor has so rightly observed, unjustifiably occupy the larger part of the North American continent. 

Except, what Americans will discover is that it is they, not the Canadians, who will be paying their mad President's new tax. 

What's more, Americans will discover that they are paying a tariff on imports from everywhere else in the world, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, with special rates applying in a seemingly random way to such items as copper pipes from China, but not from Canada (Phew, thank goodness for that small mercy).

Meantime, let's hope that the emperor's decision to send nuclear armed submarines to confront those pesky Russians doesn't lead to any real unpleasantness. like for instance, Armageddon.
