Canada & Mexico should hold firm and state that Trump must also apologize and say thank you to Canada & Mexico

Not only no deals, until all tariffs are removed permanently, but that Trump needs to apologize for causing this emergency condition and thank Canada and Mexico for resuming regular trading.

I know that will never happen because Trump is so week and frail inside he can't admit he was wrong.

Man, his dad and mom must have really fucked him up as a kid.

it's cheap, it's easy - and it's way, way too facile.
(and it always induces a flinch, along with a bit of cringe .. )

(Saying the above with full knowledge that there is plenty of evidence that these two parents had some real shortcomings. But it also needs to be said that plenty of people come out of unfortunate circumstance - without the constellation of ugly personality - and pathology - that is our current WH resident. )
Donald is responsible for being Donald.

our parents do shape who we become. Whether we ourselves can over come bad parenting depends on many things, most especially, I believe, if we have some kind of support network beyond our parents.
