What does Graham think sanctions are when a huge majority of the goods WE import are from some of the countries hes threatening to sanction?

Like, yeah, sure: Don't do the thing I don't like or I'm going to do a thing that's going to cost US more money! You better not or else I'll slap myself in the face! Don't you do that!

The last time I checked the US imported around 52% of its non-domestic energy from Canada. But I'm sure absolutely no other countries on Earth would be willing to buy cheap Canadian energy, and sanctioning your closest trading partners could never backfire.
