My only disappointment with the tariffs so far is the euroids aren't tariffed more.

personally I would like a brief, like, three to five minute long megamix of clips showing international talking heads losing their shit that this actually happened

It’s genuinely made me very mad seeing how much our “allies” have actually been tariffing us, but then they have the nerve to cry and whine when we do it to get them to stop it. Then you have sheep and the mainstream media just ignoring this fact and crying about Trump and how this is going to destroy the country. Have people always been this retarded or is the hatred for Trump really this bad? Like how are people not upset that Japan tariffs American goods at more than 40 fucking percent!

It’s just fucking wild man and I just don’t understand how people can look at those numbers and complain about us doing it back just to get these faggots to stop it and play nice to the country they have been suckling off of for decades. America is a white man and the rest of the world is a welfare nigger, is basically what I’m seeing.

You have been successfully duped. The numbers on the list Trump held up was not actually tariffs these countries have on trade with the US. He presented it as that, which was the point, because then it's justified in the eyes of people like you.

Third world brain, just bending over and accepting the iranian sponsored murder of americans and attacks on American ships because "we're just as bad mormorally"

When you put it like that I think we should be calling Iran our greatest ally and giving them billions in aid. They're no different from Israel.

I get you're a jew and therefore have no moral compass but, yes, normally you want to set an example to follow. That's why people view the US as evil and do shit like this in the first place. Crying about Iranian terrorism is kinda undermined when you find out we sponsored more terror cells world wide than Iran has the $$ to ever do. Again, not something you're going to understand as Jews lack morality, and I'm not sure how I can translate that into something your low IQ brain could understand like money.

Then show me the real numbers than. Trump gave me numbers, but you say they are wrong so prove to me that I’m being duped. Just saying something without any evidence when I already knew our allies have been tariffing us for years, just not the amounts, proves nothing. I pretty clearly stated that I was mad about the amount that they were tariffing us, so give me the real numbers please.

Can that fat fuck explain this?

Someone needs to tell Trump Alb*nian curses their goods with Gypsy curse. Why make Serbia tariffs higher than cockroach gypsies?

Serbia makes high quality goods and needs to be a partner of USA, the Alb*nian makes shit with crappy materials and smuggle drugs.

 

[Jace on ice]

85 IQ retards who asked Grok how to impose tariffs and just ran with whatever it said. Wild times.

I’m sure this will be backed out of within weeks if not days, like all the other retarded tariff announcements so far.

You need to adjust the strap on your tard helmet I think it's too tight.

 

[autistic dog]

The Bongistani news reporting about this whole tariff business is unhinged, as are the vast majority of the commenters. "Orange Hitler is ruining the world! He's no ally! What about us?! He's ruining global trade!". Nobody seems able to grasp the idea that Donald is the president because Americans voted for him to at least try and improve the lives of Americans.

There's such a disconnect it's insane. In the UK news right now, one of the last steel plants remaining (which is mostly owned by Chinese anyway) is being closed down due to it being unprofitable. Why is this? Yes, Western labour is expensive as are health and safety requirements, but maybe if the Chinese steel wasn't so cheap and there was some sort of encouragement to buy UK steel the plant wouldn't be closing. Now that's a ton of skilled workers out of a job, skills that will be lost forever.

That's only one industry. What if, instead of having a country where a huge part of the economy hinges on services and other bullshit, restored all industry to within their own borders? Higher skilled workers with more job satisfaction, insulation from others holding you to ransom like Russia with gas and China with rare elements, and perhaps higher exports if it's higher quality than the chink shit we tolerate now.

I am incredibly jealous I live in a near totalitarian state, run by a complete faggot with no chance of anyone with a spine being elected due to our voting system, while the US is undergoing its resurrection. Fucking sucks.

We need to pretend Trump is oppressing us in order to trick the euros into trying to liberate us so the US Military can fuck em up.

 

[Catch The Rainbow]

Again, not something you're going to understand as Jews lack morality, and I'm not sure how I can translate that into something your low IQ brain could understand like money.

You're saying that I have no morals while excusing the active murder of American citizens and attacks on American ships that are happening right now because "America set a bad example".

Apparently not wanting to have your countrymen killed by inbred third worlders is immoral

Frankly, I don't really give a rats anus. If they're even 30% true, I fully support Trump. I really don't give a rats anus about the pleb economy of lesser nations. You faggots want to cry? You let Globohomo faggots do this to you and create the One World Order. You let the US spend nearly 100 years demilitarizing the world. You let the US become world police. I'm tired of this nonsense. I don't think you get it.
I am laughing hysterically over this. I hope nations collapse over this shit. I hope Canada no longer exists by the time this is all over. I hope the EU completely dissolves. It probably won't happen because anyone who's not retarded will call Trump today and be like "What can we do to lower this?".

What, you think the world is going to unite in some multi-national retaliation? Okay, I believe you. You retaliate against tariffs, then if I'm Trump I just declare sanctions and hammer you until you're forced to go to war. Except you and what army? If your name isn't China or Russia, you can't go to war against the US. It's just not humanly possible. Bend over, grab your ankles, and enjoy your Freedom Cock.

As for the stock markets? Fuck em. This economic era created some of the single most risk averse faggots that ever happened. These faggots bail and sell half their savings at candle wick drops and cause spirals, and frankly I'm tired of it. Let it all crash. This is how you create a Bull Market. Biden spent his years destroying the economy for hyperinflation? This is how we catch up. Capitalizing on revenue from untapped sources while simultaneously evening out the costs. Get fucked.

The real numbers are much, much lower. For Japan it's closer to 3%. But trade barriers are also much more more advanced of course, and aren't always that easy to calculate. Which might be one reason why the Trump administration has only used trade deficits to calculate these "tariffs" or cheating as Trump called it. You can read about it here:

https://kiwifarms.st/threads/trumps-reciprocal-tariff-formula-is-all-about-trade-deficits.216252/

Of course trade deficits numbers aren't really giving the full situation either, but above all you can't boil it down to "cheating". F.ex it makes complete sense that you have a trade deficit with Vietnam as a rich country people will afford to buy things manufactured there but less so the other way around. It will also hide some numbers here as it's not unlikely to be an American owned company that produced the thing, but in Vietnam.

Now if you want to manufacture all the clothes in and shoes etc in the US instead that's fair, but that obviously means that you can't have the super cheap workers that agrees to work in shit any longer.

I was going to make an effort post but this one said everything I have to say so I'll just endorse it instead.

I don't care if the third world and international Jewry get royally assfucked.

All I hear is that Trump is going to deliver the single greatest blow against economic slavery in history. I don't want Chinese people working for barely anything just so that I can have unnecessary bullshit.

We've been getting fucked on world trade for quite a while. It's about time we did some fucking of our own.

 

[YellowIsACoolColor]

it would take two to five years to finish constructing new factories in America in response to tariffs.

From what I've read it's more like 9 months to 2 years

If we're going to play Jewish tricks, you're excusing the muder of Americans and attacks on American ships by Israel.

That's a false equivalence but I appreciate you trying. Only thing worse than Iran is Israel. More war comes from that state than anywhere else in the region

So your in favor of slave labor is what I’m getting from this? Why are you democrats so into having slaves? I want anything and everything that can be made in this country, made in this country and the people making those products to be paid a good wage so they can live good lives.

Even if Trump is lying out of his ass, it doesn’t change the fact that these allies of ours and the country that we get everything from, China, are still tariffing us and we weren’t. We were getting fucked regardless of if it was more or less, so nothing about what Trump is doing seems like a negative, sorry. But hey I appreciate you having a conversation with me and hope you take the slave comment as the joke it is.

Slavery is what enables the laptop caste.
