Tariffs announced on Canada, China, & Mexico goods

[Bray123]

Someone remind the poorly educated as to who pays the tax on imported goods?

 

[Fuzzy1975]

Would you really rather be a province of China than a state of the Union? Are Canadians ready to go full Communist?

Want to find out?

10 percent tariffs across the board.
Except for Israel who said ALL tariffs on us were dropped.
Apparently we will use HALF the tariffs imposed on us.
BUT... the amounts they created to show as tariffs on us are
a bit suspicious.
WHATEVER!
WE PAY THE TARIFFS not the other countries.
It does make it harder for them to sell directly to us, so
they will find countries to use as go betweens and 'rump
will play wacka mole.
We shall see how ALL of our companies can deal with being tariffed at
these rates. Easier for our companies to move their manufacturing over seas
as 'rump expects to happen for other countries.
THAT's assuming they want ANYTHING AMERIKKKAN at this point.

Enjoy your inflation in the states, the rest of us will just get on with trading with other countries

You forgot the reduction in choice too.

NK trades with nobody but China anyway. Juche -- "self-reliance" -- means economic autarky.

JFC!

Russia and Belarus not tariffed, but Ukraine is.

The administration says it’s because trade with Russia fell to zero after sanctions, but that’s not true.

U.S. goods imports from Russia totaled $3.0 billion in 2024, down 34.2 percent ($1.6 billion) from 2023. The U.S. goods trade deficit with Russia was $2.5 billion in 2024, a 37.5 percent decrease ($1.5 billion) over 2023.

And as with everything else in this administration, they literally just make shit up. None of the tariffs rates are correct.

I predict a little symbolic tariff so he can say he kept his promise that he rolls back as soon as the markets crash.

I was wrong about the "little symbolic tariff". He actually went all in and screwed the pooch.

I still think he's going to scramble to walk some of it back tomorrow morning when the carnage becomes obvious.

I'm wondering if he was hoping, "if I don't go after Canada and Mexico, the market won't tank". If it doesn't, he'll then enact some tariffs on them later using some pretext. I had agreed with your assessment too.

I'm dead certain Ish, Vette, Arpy are already depressed. They do nothing but whine about how shitty their lives are.

YAY PREZIDENT trump, FINALLY!!!

He’s going back to his roots and doing the one thing in life that he has been able to do continuously well (other than divorcing women) - bankrupting shit! U-S-A! U-S-A!

Oh, do I wish I could have the opportunity to sit in on tomorrow’s Economics 101 class at the Wharton School of Business.

derp.

God what a dumb fuck Trimp is. What kind of fucktard voted for this?

 

[Bray123]

Not that I'm an expert on Svalbard And Jan Mayen, but apparently they have ZERO import taxes charged to the US. Nor do they have tariffs or sales taxes.
Those figures are fictitious, aimed at the gullible Red-Hats who will now be paying double for their Chinese-made merch.

S & JM export some coal, much lusted over by the global warming deniers in their expensive red hats. So all that Dotard has done is to work out the trade disparity between nations and fixed taxes accordingly. Nothing to do with whatever he's lying about today.

Tomorrow will be another lie.

Australia has a free trade agreement with the US and has zero tariffs on the US. Trump slapped a new tariff on them anyway.

Trump and the MAGAs don’t understand the meaning of “reciprocal”.

Why? Trump never did, and look at his expertise.

Yep - these aren't real.tariffs. This entire thing is so dear leader gets attention.

Which is his entire Presidency.

He doesn't give a fuck about anyone but himself.

For god's trump's sake, he literally lied about Canada's tariffs on dairy while signing a document that violated his own fucking "brilliant" trade agreement.
