7 p.m., 25 October in California

During the World Series just now I saw the Canadian anti-tariff ad with Reagan's radio address.

I thought Canada pulled that ad after Trump blew a gasket?

Trump announced on his Truth Social network on Thursday that he had “terminated” all negotiations with Canada over what he called the “fake” advertising campaign that he said misrepresented fellow Republican President Reagan.

Less than 24 hours later, Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford said he was suspending the advertisement after talking to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney about the spiralling row with Washington.

“In speaking with Prime Minister Carney, Ontario will pause its US advertising campaign effective Monday so that trade talks can resume,” Ford said in a post on X.

The operative word is pause; the ball is in the marmalade shartcannon’s court.

I think he'd react more crazily if it were. Psychopaths can't stand being laughed at, oe even the thought of it.
