Actually there is a 250% tariff on Dairy, but not until a threshold of the value of the exports to Canada are reached. The US has never reached that threshold....not even gotten close.

If that’s true, it’s a great demonstration of how the Trump administration is an Idiocracy.

There are so many things about the tariffs position by our President that is literally against any fucking logic.
1. We have free trade deals with multiple countries. They have tariffs beyond those, but we PAY NO TARIFFS.
2. We are imposing tariffs on countries with NO ACTUAL PEOPLE. AND - the reasoning for these tariffs is that those non people are imposing tariffs on us???
3. Our current President literally is responsible for the USMCA, which replaced NAFTA. He has said that NAFTA is part of his reasoning to impose tariffs.
Our President
IS
A
FUCKING
LIAR.
And his policies, based on lies, cannot, in any way, make our country better, because they are based on lies.

It turns out it’s true. The White House tried to refute his contention, but proved it instead! They are so dumb.

More about the fraudulent way the Trump administration calculated fake “reciprocal” tariffs.
And, of course, the US has a trade surplus with some countries and using the formula should have resulted in the US lowering existing tariffs against those countries. But a new 10% tariff was slapped on them instead.
Everything Trump does is fraudulent.

But his base is applauding, which is all that matters....

Bro that's why they got the tariffs!
We've had them try shit here too. Like mislabel products that are not Canadian, as Canadian. The government actually sent the groceries a warning letter about doing it again.
If that’s true, it’s a great demonstration of how the Trump administration is an Idiocracy.

Trump lied about tariffs because he's too fucking dumb to know any better.
There IS some rumbling AND grumbling EVEN AMONG THE MAGAT BASE - less than three months in…

Well Trump needs to destroy the government prior to midterms. If the courts don't stop him, then he's well on his way to an autocracy. By the time the midterms hit, he'll have changed the US to the point it's elections resemble Russia's.There IS some rumbling AND grumbling EVEN AMONG THE MAGAT BASE - less than three months in…
