Negotiating 101: Bracketing and Trump is leading the negotiation by setting the high bracket (5.0%).….and he could double-bracket as well, we shall see. Canada is way down on the backside of the low bracket (2.0%). Those that take defence seriously will probably make national statements of commitment at or slightly above the bracket mid-point (3.5%). They’ll be rewarded with acknowledgment of team play and a preferred place in Trump’s sphere of influence. The others may be double-bracketed on the high side of single-bracket mean (above 3.5%…3.75 to 4.25%+/-) and when they don’t or can’t, they will be on the outs with Trump and he’ll beast them until they at least ante up to the original mid-point (3.5%).

And he wants Europe to buy more Alberta Oil and Gas.....
After he has got his mark up and resold it through American ports.
A huge proportion of Americans don’t even buy American-company cars. What makes anyone think Europeans will when they have BMW, Volvo, Mercedes, Audi, etc?
