‘Hit Him Back Twice as Hard’

“Doug Ford, the premier of Ontario, plans to rain economic punishment on Americans if President Donald Trump targets Canada in a trade war,” Politico reports.

“Ford has threatened to cut power transmission to U.S. homes and businesses and banish U.S. liquor from Ontario shelves. Wearing a MAGA-like hat reading “Canada Is Not For Sale,” Ford has pledged to target red states with dollar-for-dollar retaliation. In an interview Wednesday, he described himself matter-of-factly as a brawler with a reflex for combat.”

Said Ford: “I’m a street fighter in politics. If someone throws a punch at me, I’m going to hit him back twice as hard.”
