We realize that most Americans didn’t vote for Trump (only 49.8%) and that most of those who did probably didn’t understand what tariffs are and how they work and we realize that Trump’s action and our response are going to hurt poor Americans, and poor Americans in red states more than others, but we’re not going to take illegal tariffs sitting down.
Just a reminder who Trump is pissing off.

To be fair, you guys have a parliamentary system. It’s a bit different, and you don’t have any one election that’s equal in scale and importance to our Presidential election.
Not making excuses, just saying that it’s not a 1:1 comparison.
I don’t really understand what your point is. Do you mean our election campaigns don’t last 4 years? Y’all could plan to book voting day off 20 years in advance because it’s not a surprise, ours can pop up any time with a month’s notice. And by importance do you mean our PM generally doesn’t have the power to crater the world economy in a matter of days? Or are you saying ours are more important because we vote for the entire government on 1 day and you just pick one guy?
