His threat was directed at countries in the so-called BRIC alliance, which consists of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates.
Does it feel like Trump just learned the word “tariff” a couple weeks ago or is that just me?
No he definitely learned it years ago, but he’s a simple boy, he can’t hold too many concepts in his head. It’s mostly just rape, fraud, and now tariffs
That “simple boy” has won two presidential elections and has avoided jail even though he has been convicted multiple times.
Underestimate your opponents at your own peril.
Nah, he really is fucking dumb. Not to say he isn’t dangerous. But I don’t believe for a second he is the architect of his rise
Let’s keep it that way. Imagine if he discovers one day he could go over 100%.
There he is: https://youtu.be/ngKT3MIfwpo
“If you step out of line, so help me, I will TANK MY OWN ECONOMY!”
I’m sure this will help drive BRICS closer together as they feel attacked by America. Allowing Russia to poach powerful allies away from the US.
Trump must be Putins greatest dream.
Yeah it would be extremely funny (and probably bad) if he accidentally own-goal’ed this.
Trump 110% still believes that other countries pay these tariffs.
He believes they can’t raise their own tariffs in turn. That’s the real danger here. Not Americans paying double for some knock off plastic widget on Temu, but American exporters running into an equivalent tariff wall trying to import cars and computers and pork shoulders into China.
He’s taking a guillotine to American global logistics
I’m not so sure.
It’s free money for the government isn’t it? If he’s all about greed or grift, then isn’t it the more the merrier?
Disclaimer: I’m not from USA, I’m watching from the other side of the world.
Bro is undermining the dollar himself.
