No One Will Win Trump’s Fight between the U.S. and Canada

Perhaps, as White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow suggested over the weekend, attacking U.S. allies was a good way to show that the United States is a force to be reckoned with as Trump headed to Singapore to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
