(3,818 posts)I'm certainly not against compensation for injury.
But his bellicosity toward Canada seems entirely gratuitous.

He sued the homeowner and a tree service company, resulting in an insurance settlement that provided him with lump sum payments every three years until 2022 along with monthly payments for life, both of which were adjusted for inflation.[292] As of August 2013, the monthly payment was US$14,000 and the three-year lump sum payment was US$400,000, all tax-free. Abbott has said he relied on the money to pay for nearly three decades of medical expenses and other costs.[292]

Wouldnt it be a hoot if some states figured a way around the tariffs to trade with Mexico and Canada. Wishful thinking, but I believe the GOP would have no problem with this strategy if Biden was doing what Trump is doing.
