White House trade advisor Peter Navarro said Monday that an offer by Vietnam to eliminate tariffs on U.S. imports would not be enough for the administration to lift its new levies announced last week.
“Let’s take Vietnam. When they come to us and say ‘we’ll go to zero tariffs,’ that means nothing to us because it’s the nontariff cheating that matters,” Navarro said on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”
Let this be a lesson to every other country…it doesn’t matter what you do to appease these assholes. They’re going to do it anyway, so you might as well fight back. You have so much more to lose by giving in.
Cheating is such a broad term, does he mean cheating like Trump did on many of his wives, cheating at golf, cheating in elections, cheating on tax returns, cheating on business appraisals, I mean, there are so many types of cheating, what is he referring to?
Make this a high priority goal for the discovery of time travel, go back and incapacitate anyone who could prevent young Donny from getting drafted. Maybe do the same for Marion Morrison (John Wayne) too, might get a headstart on tackling toxic masculinity as a society.
See, I’ve never liked that ‘go back in time and tweak things to make a small change’ line of thought. There’s too many ways you can either make something worse happen (Trump gets drafted in Vietnam, but manages to spend the entire time as file clerk and comes back and now gets to hang the ‘I’m a veteran!’ flag on his hat) or it won’t accomplish what you meant.
Basically, if you had a time machine and were trying to stop future events, there’s really only one approach you should be considering.
Is the non-tarrif cheating in the room with us? Is it proven by the same people who proved voter fraud?
Was it Peter Navarro or trade expert Ron Vara?
Vietnam needs to say they’ll ditch their VAT, if the US and all its states get rid of sales tax. Fairs, fair
