Why This Matters
Economic Retaliation:
Canada threatens reprisals against U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs, which could increase prices for your home construction and car purchases
Allied Intelligence Sharing:
Diplomatic ruptures with G7 partners reduce intelligence cooperation, potentially leaving America more vulnerable to terrorist attacks
Trade War Escalation:
Trump's tariffs on all G7 members invite retaliation that could cost your job if you work in export industries
Democratic Isolation:
America's withdrawal from democratic alliances leaves authoritarian regimes like Russia and China with greater global influence over economic rules
Military Burden:
Weakened alliances mean higher U.S. defense spending as allies become less willing to share security costs, increasing your tax burden
