The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

Naah. It’s just the less nuanced version of the blanket false accusations suck statement that I’ve already made several times now.
I didn’t vote for him. Therefore, not ALL Americans chose this.
Of course not all. But the US electorate as a body produced this decision. When your congress passes a law or your supreme court makes a decision do you not say that “the congress” passed a law or “the supreme court” made a judgement? I doubt you constantly say “a bit more than half the congress passed a law #notallcongresspeople”.
Or, when, say France has an election, do you not say “the french elected Macron”? Or do you always nuance it by “this or that percentage of the french elected him”?
