Donald Trump said he’d lob more tariffs on Canada, on Saturday. Hours later, Ontario’s ad featuring former President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs aired during game two of the World Series.

The ad was expected. The campaign was released by Ontario’s Premier, Doug Ford, and it has been the latest flash point in trade tensions between the US and its neighbor to the north.

The advertisement initially drew Trump’s ire on Thursday night, and he posted to Truth Social to say that he was terminating all trade negotiations with Canada. Ontario subsequently announced on Friday that the ad would be pulled by Monday, but only after it had been aired during Friday and Saturday’s World Series games.

    And until Americans stop hurting him, he’ll keep shooting America. This is the danger of Trump’s psychology. He’s destroying America to protect his ego and the more he tries, the more there is to hurt his ego with. His administration is a runaway train, headed for political violence and tyrannical rule all to serve his extreme narcissism. He’s not capable of stopping.
