Oh yeah, and have a guess what country isnt on the tariff list? Russia. While all the donkeys who support him run around screaming RUSSIA HOAX, EU leaders must be apoplectic at what he’s doing.
Trump has sexual abuse kompromat on most of Congress but Putin has it on him. A human centipede of sexual abusers trying to find ways to drag everyone else down with them. What a mess.

The west have actively encouraged the use of third world countries to produce cheaper goods and thus increase their wealth by reimporting for use in the service industry

Seems odd that these tariffs want to break that model when it’s proved profitable in-spite of the reduction in local blue collar jobs.

I guess that’s the trump voter base…

Would be great it we tore the entire system down to start again

He’s amazing. Love the idea that you can just get him to FRO by interrupting him and letting his ego do the werk

Mad_Cyril love a bit of Seb. He’s an absolute truncheon but so entertaining so.

Hursty I can’t believe this is actually true and hardly anyone is reporting it - the BBC has gone with it - this is the formulae the White House claimed they used - I shit you not

    Hursty I thought this was Trumps way of creating jobs and growth internally, but surely it takes years for companies to achieve this. They don’t suddenly buy US goods and services over night due to tariffs increasing. So will stick the US in a recession for a while I imagine.

    Will he just back track on this in a month or 2 when it’s not working? He does love causing some chaos, and all his chums are prob now investing whilst the economy plummets, and make millions when he reverses all his actions and the economy gets back to normal.

    Or am I completely mis understanding this all?

      Funky: Once you realise Trump is playing 4D chess and the rest of the world’s nations, central banks and economics ‘experts’ are playing chequers, it all makes perfect sense

        Millsy forget the man is the biggest genius on the planet. I will go back to playing tiddly winks

        RichM I think you’ve got it, at least based on everything I’ve read. It’s basically a tax on the working class to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. All of the insider trading and bribes to avoid tariffs for certain industries are just the personal incentives for trump. He’ll throw the US into a recession and the rest of the world is collateral damage, no of which bothers him in the least.

          303abuser but surely the majority of his voters are the working class who will get fucked over by this. It’s not the wealthy wearing the MAGA caps

            RichM They are and they’re apparently happy about all of this, at least for now. Not that any of that matters to Trump, he sees the government as another “business” to siphon money from for personal gain. He doesn’t need to get re-elected, whether he retires, dies, or just organizes a more successful coup.
