If you listen closely, you can hear it—that “giant sucking sound” Ross Perot warned about back in 1992. For decades, that sound was American jobs and wealth being vacuumed out of the country, shipped off to Mexico, China, and Canada under the banner of “free trade.” Now, with Trump’s new tariffs slamming America’s so-called trading partners, that sound has reversed direction.
And the globalist elites are in full-blown panic mode.
Trump’s America-First Power Play
President Donald Trump just imposed massive tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China—25% on Canadian and Mexican imports, plus a 10% levy on Chinese goods. The White House made it clear: these tariffs are a response to the flood of illegal immigrants and deadly fentanyl pouring into the U.S. The message? No more free rides. No more lopsided deals. Play fair or pay the price.
The globalist media lost its mind immediately. The BBC, acting as the usual mouthpiece for the economic elite, rushed to decry the move as a disaster, while Canadian and Mexican officials feigned outrage. Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford whined that the tariffs will "hurt America," while Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum promised a “cool-headed” response—translation: they don’t know how to fight back without wrecking their own economies.
And then, of course, China chimed in, warning that "no one wins a trade war." Funny—they had no problem waging an economic war against America for decades, hollowing out the U.S. manufacturing base, manipulating currency, and stealing intellectual property. But now that Trump is playing hardball? Suddenly, they’re worried about fairness.
Ross Perot Saw This Coming Decades Ago
Back in 1992, when NAFTA was being pushed as the greatest economic deal in history, billionaire businessman Ross Perot sounded the alarm. He warned the American people that if NAFTA passed, there would be a “giant sucking sound” of jobs leaving the U.S. for Mexico.
And guess what? He was absolutely right.
For decades, American factories shut down, workers lost their livelihoods, and entire industries were outsourced—all while globalist politicians and multinational corporations cashed in on cheap foreign labor. The same elite class that told us to "embrace globalization" is now having a meltdown because Trump is finally reversing the flow.
Why the Globalists are Losing Their Minds
Here’s the real reason why the corporate and political establishment is terrified: Trump’s tariffs put America back in control.
For decades, the U.S. was handcuffed by bad trade deals, forced to accept unfair terms while Canada, Mexico, and China laughed all the way to the bank. Now, Trump is using the power of America’s massive consumer market as leverage—and the elites don’t know how to stop it.
Some experts (including former Mexican ambassador Arturo Sarukhan) believe that Trump’s tariffs are actually a strategy to force an early renegotiation of the USMCA trade deal, which is scheduled for review in 2026. If true, this is economic chess at a grandmaster level.
Rather than waiting for the bureaucratic review process, Trump is applying pressure NOW, making Canada and Mexico sweat, forcing them to the negotiating table before they even have a chance to prepare.
The globalists didn’t see this coming. They thought Trump was gone. They thought they could go back to business as usual, quietly dismantling American sovereignty piece by piece.
Wrong.
What Happens Next? The Globalist Dilemma
Here’s the situation Canada, Mexico, and China now find themselves in:
Retaliate with their own tariffs – but that would only hurt their own economies, since they depend on access to the U.S. market far more than the U.S. depends on them.
Try to play hardball in negotiations – but Trump has shown time and again that he doesn’t blink when it comes to putting America first.
Wait and hope Trump backs down – but anyone who thinks Trump backs down hasn’t been paying attention.
Meanwhile, expect the globalist media to go into overdrive, pumping out doom-and-gloom stories about "economic catastrophe" and "international outrage"—because they know Trump is outplaying them at their own game.
The Bottom Line: The Giant Sucking Sound is Over
Trump’s tariff strategy is more than just an economic maneuver—it’s a full-scale assault on the globalist order. For too long, the elites sold out American workers, telling us that outsourcing, open borders, and unfair trade deals were inevitable.
They lied.
With these tariffs, Trump is proving that America doesn’t have to accept second place. He’s proving that Ross Perot was right, and that it’s time to bring jobs, industries, and economic power back where it belongs—right here in the United States.
And that giant sucking sound? It’s the sound of the globalists realizing that their game is over.
