Summary
The Trump administration admitted it sent formal letters to several countries urging them to submit trade proposals by July 8, the deadline for its “90 deals in 90 days” initiative.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called them “friendly reminders,” but critics mocked the move as desperate.
The initiative began in April after Trump paused new tariffs amid market unrest.
Online commentators questioned whether deals will materialize, accusing the administration of backpedaling from bold claims about trade leverage and partner enthusiasm.
You send your ambassadors, not write letters. Unless your ambassadors aren’t being received by the host countries.
The US ambassador to Canada ambassador is a jackass.

Plus he was pissed we invited our king over to give the traditional throne speech, with this being the first election where Charles is our king.
