Watters on Trump Announcing Tariffs on Canada and Mexico: ‘Buy Your Maple Syrup and Your Corona Now’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
♪ ♪

>> And they did not listen.
>> Tariffs on Canada and Mexico for a number of reasons. Number 1 is the people that have poured into our country so horribly and so much. Number 2 are the drugs, fennel and every thing else coming into the country. And number 3 are the massive subsidies that we are giving to Canada and to Mexico in the form of deficits. And I will be putting the tariff of 25% on Canada and separately 25% on Mexico.
>> Effect on Saturday so by your maple syrup and corona right now. The administration is moving fast. You either get out of the way or get run over. Federal employees who do not come back to the office are getting the Pink slip. Legacy media does not like that one bit.
>> Losing people with years of experience like doctors and let’s say scientists?
>> Actual hospitals and medical institutions have to show up to the office.
>> Generous severance package to anyone who does not want to commute. But some bureaucrats want to fight, fight, fight. Some at the labor department said, quote, I would rather be fired for existing and making their lives heck. Even employees who are planning on quitting are staying just to resist. Quote, I was looking for any way to get out of this fresh but now I’m fired up to make these goons as frustrated as possible. Return to office. Trump is not just firing people, he is hiring them. The present talks so much more than Biden that the White House is adding more stenographers. Under Biden they were bored and now they are typing 20,000 words a day. And he is not just talking the talk. The Republican Party has its highest approval rating of all time. Democrats are desperate for a face-lift. Last night they held an emergency meeting to conjure up a counter strategy. What did they come up with? Eggs.
>> Messaging advice to Democrats is like giving [bleep] kids matches. You see some thing about inflation and the cost of living and suddenly they’re out there being like, that’s not going to do anything to lower the price of eggs. And it’s like come on, make it
[Bleep] Believable. It is not believable right now. No one is out there thinking Donald Trump was going to lower the price of eggs or lower the cost of everything after a
[Bleep] Week.
>> DEI, deportations, he has them playing whack a mole. And whatever they say about anything, no one is buying it.
>> Our credibility on a number of issues. We don’t have the credibility that we need on issues like immigration act like DEI, dealing with racism and discrimination. Like the economy. I think we need to spend more time reestablishing our own credibility, not just bashing what Trump does.
>> Is more unpopular than it has been in the history of the pole. No one likes Democrats. Not even Democrats. The founder of turning point usa, Charlie Kirk is here. You have studied the Democratic Party on college campuses, Congress. What state is it in right now?
>> They are in a state of confusion. In fact President Trump is moving so fast that Democrats cannot even remember all of the things that should be mad about. Way to set, what are we met about today? Is it that gender mutilation executive order or the affirmative action thing? No, it’s eggs and the fact he is securing the southern border. They will try to drum up some resistance but deep down smart Democrats know that this is performative. This is the brilliance of what President Trump and his team are doing right now. It is a shock and off strategy. You know the Democrats right now or in the wilderness and trying to find their direction, trying to find a leader. Trying to orient themselves out of this state of complete confusion. And President Trump is not giving them reprieve. Every day they wake up to another executive order, and other executive action, a master class of diplomacy that we saw with Columbia over the weekend. And even if they are trying to raise money and do more text messaging and email campaigns to get people to resist in the streets, another executive order comes because deep down they know that President Trump is just getting started. And that is before a robust legislative assembly that is going to come through from the house and the Senate. President Trump is moving so quickly that Democrats right now are not even given the opportunity to regroup or gather and President Trump, therefore, is having full-spectrum dominance over the American political landscape.
>> On the inside? These saboteurs, the dead end, the DEI undercover agents? He is trying to root them out, summer just announcing they are going to stay in the federal government and just pull pins out of hand grenades.
>> Insubordination will not be tolerated. These people must be very careful. There are federal laws against these sorts of things. Not following orders or leaked classified information. I can tell you right now that the people that are actually making the decisions in these departments, the political appointees are phenomenal. Personnel’s policy. The president has the best team he has ever had around him. From senior staff, personnel, to the people leaving these bureaucracies. And a lot of these individuals are going to reveal themselves. But I can tell you right now that the pace of which they are operating is not exactly a friendly pace for some of the people working in defined administration. They were very used to opening up the laptop around 11:00 A.M., may be having a second job, coming into work once a month and working every so often. This is a different operation, a different administration, one that wants results for American people and let any federal worker right now be warned that if you are willing to subvert the will of a president, then you are playing with legal fire right there. Because it is very clear in article two that the president of the United States is in charge of the federal bureaucracy, you don’t get the call the shots. You follow orders or you can get another job.
>> Upstairs, now there is a trade war against Mexico and Canada. And any other newsday this would be top line. And this is just deep down in the show. How do you think this impact is going to play out on the economy?
>> Negotiation ability completely. Understand that many of these companies want to actually do business here in America. So to avoid the tariff, read domicile your manufacturing to onshore these jobs. I think when it comes to immigration, using the terrace as a negotiating tactic to get Mexico to come to the table is brilliant. And I think using tariffs in the way he has to encourage manufacturing to come back to this country has been long overdue. We used to fund the entire federal government with tariffs. We used to fund all of our goods and services that we had through tariffs. I love the president’s idea of the external revenue service. It rid of the Internal Revenue Service, let’s start taxing the rest of the world. And were able to do this is the world superpower is the economic power because everyone wants to do business here. It’s one thing if you’re Portugal or Spain. It’s another thing for the United States of America because people want to come here. This will result in trillions of
