Riggs had this to say on Trump’s goal with tariffs placed on Canada:

“Close the damn border… it is unbelievable the garbage of the fentanyl and the illegal immigrants that are coming in. It’s very simple. And I think Trump, to his part, maybe he could do a better job at this. Is this a drug war or a trade war? It’s a drug war. It’s very simple. Do what Mexico did. Shut the damn border. If it’s a trade war, that’s a different story. We can talk about trade deficits and the economics behind that another another day.”
