Trumps vows to place 25% tariff on all products from Mexico, Canada and China
based or cringe?
Based but we dont make shit anymore so like what now?
25%
lmao, we have a 95% tax rate on imports
step 1. tell everyone to fuck off
step 2.
step 3. profit
and we have 0 industries, its not like we can just buy national products
if trump makes his voter base poorer with this they will kill him
You use this opportunity to start making shit and turn a profit.
Blame foreigners when everything costs twice what it used to so you can justify isolationism
Its getting very hard to not prefer China over these racist neighbors
They will never turn against him.
Biden never lifted the first set of tariffs so don’t expect these to go away either
Our expenses rise by 25% but at least we get to know we owned the libs
trumps voter base
ever harming him
Yeah
we have 0 industries
Where are Caoa Chery produced?
We MUST protect our selected group of retail oligarchs you fucking chud
Americans are rich you won't even notice it.
At most you'll have to switch from ultra premium jet fuel gas to just premium gas for your F-150.
SAAAAAAAAAAAAR
now Magazine e Luiza can buy chinese products, put their log on and sell twice the price for us.
Saaring me won't change the truth.
Our economy will collapse if this is enforced.

not the same party doe they were replaced
”There are more important things than the economy!-“
is actually wild these breadtube DNC shills have such opinionated takes considered they have been wrong about everything for 3 years in a row, a month ago they were saying Florida was in game lmfao
they really think the US is the kind of country that doesn't has the infrastructure to pull a iimport substitution programs without having harsh effects in consumption
the entire purpose is to incentivize people to start making things in america again, create american jobs and stimulate local american economies. the country has done nothing but gone down the shitter since we outsourced all manufacturing, because it creates no wealth or prosperity for the people here who used to do the actual work to make all the shit, only for the jewish CEOs and shareholders who outsourced the manufacturing. it's not a coincidence that china went from impoverished third world shit hole to the third the strongest capitalist economy in the world after america moved all of the manufacturing to them and created countless jobs in china in the process.
your society is already collapsing under the weight of poojeet.
Are we about to pay like $14 for heads of lettuce now?
Chat, are we cooked?
If this goes wrong it'll push people here even more towards independence next election season
Mexico, Canada
Those sound like bluffs. Isn't most of the US strategy hinging on replacing China with Mexico as a manufacturing base?
The USSR collapsed when American-USSR trade was just picking up, Coca Cola was running factories in the USSR, the USSR collapsed because of internal economic conditions.
They'll kill his asshole with their tongues
giga giga giga based
That's what I thought. I hope it's a bluff or at most a bargaining tactic to get us to make commitment about illegal border crossings or drug flows.
how can you be this dense, he will just outsource the jobs to more friendly states like india or argentina and buy trash from russia
Aren't you guys still playing Sega Master System/Genesis games?
Free trade is good when both parties benefit. Sometimes it is not fair trade. USA has been getting ripped off for a while, don't blame them. I dunno how NAFTA factors in on this, perhaps Trump will withdraw. But as a Canadian I have to deal with enough duties and taxes (especially importing tobacco) that I have a distaste for them, plus it would hurt the US economy.
Alberta premier is sucking up to Trump about securing the border and sending energy resources south lmao
USA has been getting ripped off for a while,
The dollar is the world's reserve currency, this massively benefits America and enables it to borrow obscenely large amounts of money relatively cheaply.
Yeah but the factories are moving abroad which is good for the environment in the US (no more rivers on fire) but strategically weakens the US. If they are cut off from China due to war over Taiwan it will be a rude awakening.
Meant to say it will hurt Canada's economy not the US, but it might do both.
You're making a long term argument about an election that was almost exclusively about the price of groceries going up.
No one gives a fuck that real wages are high, or that we were at the brink of a financial melt down that no civilization has ever gotten out of, and we didn't have a recession meanwhile we brought inflation down to where its supposed to be.
People will not be happy if the price of groceries goes up a lot again even if it means we have some stronger industries in the next 20 years (this is not what will happen either aside from the CHIPS Act)
Aren't you guys still playing Sega Master System/Genesis games?
I'm pretty sure "30 games in 1" versions of those things might still be manufactured but I have never heard of even poor families buying them. It's even rarer to see it in some stores in this age where most tech is bought online and kids just want tablets/phones.
The manufacturer of those pieces were the old partners to Sega back in the 90s.
Ok
build one (1) factory
costs like 2 billion dollars and takes 3 years after environmental review
staffed by lazy useless retards
knowledge base to manufacture quality product is long gone
product still costs 50% more than chinkshit after tariffs
factory goes out of business
What now?
Trump is a great man
America can do anything it wants.
Inflation ahoy
Youre so fucking retarded its insane.
WE DONT WANT TO STILL BE MINING STEEL. The email jobs are at scale 10x more productive and make everyone richer. You want MORE specialization as your economy grows, NOT regressive manufacturing process.
You want to tariff exclusively in the case of economic competition. The US is the most dominant economy in the world, so we would only want to tariff extremely sophisticated industries like microchip processors when we are capable of developing our own systems. Its why we have Chinese cars banned.
The worst part is you are probably in the top 10% IQ range of MAGA voters at least. FUCK YOU

mining steel
tariffs bad because reddit said so
Why did Biden extend the tariffs from Trump's first term?
Argies don't like manual labor. We outsource picking out vegetables to Bolivians, or machinery.
Do you not know that the rust belt was home to the mining of ore and the production of steel? You had massive unrest in these states when those mines started to close down because it was becoming economically inefficient to not just import the ores.
make all money off global trade
torpedo trade with other countries
What a bunch of retards
Anyway ping ling will now buy more of our shit and sell us their shit cheaper so we'll be better off
You mine for iron, then produce steel from that
Yes... We called them "steel mining towns" because they mined the ore. These mines closed down when the price of the ore became so low that it was cheaper to import it than to pay for the labor. This eventually happened at scale for steel production as well.
Neither me nor the other anon were commenting on that. Just on
mining steel
Get to work jose or we will nullify your citizenship
britain is going to get a massive exception in the tariffs purely because trump likes farage
Trudeau wont let it happen, so he will be a good dog and do whatever trump asks.
Trudeau already caved
LMAO
we can be a service economy whose production is at mercy of other countries forever
Can you be this actively retarded lmfao
We need to put tariffs on all competitor countries (EU, Japan, Canada, etc) then use that revenue to bolster Israel's defenses and pay Russia reparations for damages
the full post is more interesting since trump says it's because canadians and mexicans are letting illegals and fentanyl through their borders with the united states
I think its retarded, he's trying to shift American revenue from taxes to tariffs which is fair but a large portion of the American budget needs to be slashed to make up the loss in revenue. And he and his appointees don't have the fucking teeth to cut enough of the federal budget to make it realistic, most likely just going to leave more costs for the tax payer
quite the contrary, unironically the entire world are at the mercy of the "service" companies like Google, Apple, Meta.
Let's not forget banks like JPM, BoA or Wells Fargo if they feel like it they can crash and burn those commodity markets like beans and corns that thirdies so depend on.
This anon is correct, and the reality is there is no real alternatives to Google or Stripe.
Its insanely delusional to think that we are at the "mercy" of lithium mines in 3rd world countries. We still do a lot of our own resource, and can easily mobilize any sort of labor we need to (and we have no lack of supply of cheap migrant labor). Its just a naive way to think of the economy that only works if you literally understand nothing about how industry works.
This is actually based. The US wants to move back from a service based sector to a manufacturing one, but also kick out illegals who work those low paying, long hour jobs and forcing native Americans to work in it. People working in finance and international tech jobs should leave their 6-figure jobs and work for $2 a day making shoelaces.
This will save the US economy.
This retard fantasy would result in inflation you couldn't even imagine. It also doesn't make sense. You would need to have totalitarian regime control over regulation. The simple fact is you cant bring low skill manufacturing back to this country like its 1920. The only thing you can really do is make consumers eat the tariffs which increase the government collections.
So if youre goal is to pay more in taxes (this is just what tariffs are ) then sure
Trump is a brilliant man and will save America... MAGA!!!
like what now?
Start making shit fag, or get deported.
Simple as.
Nigga, saaars are already collapsing you from within

this but totally unironically
Zoomers and milennials dont know how to use/ choose people for certain tasks
They are totally held prisoner by ideology
Actually it's only 10% on China, and they threated us with tariffs already if we arrest Nettenyahoo
they threated us with tariffs already if we arrest Nettenyahoo
Pretty sure it's outright sanctions. Including Europeans.
Yeah when the eagle spreads his wings all the little shitbirds sure do panic.
I don’t get what he thinks he can tariff that won’t impact the american economy
Most american companies, even manufacturing or resource industries offshore some labor like refining or harvesting, and simply do assembly or finishing steps in the US, all those materials would get taxed on the way in to the US from China or Vietnam or the Congo or wherever
This isn’t ”le chyna will pay for it”, it’s just american companies being punished over night for how their business is laid out as a result of 80 years of fiscal policy, that tariff will just get passed right onto the consumer
You can’t adapt an entire economy around protectionism in 4 years, it can take 20,30,50 years to reorient the entire thing, these proposals feel absurd

Project 2025 will make sure it's not 4 years of Trump but 40
hello fat mexican groyper
That would require 2/3's majority in Congress if he wanted to do that, which he wouldn't.
shalom
The man is like 4 years younger than biden, he not gonna be around much longer
It doesn't have to be Trump himself
The congress won't be asked
I enjoy the seethe tbqh
It means trump is right (again)
More like 40 years of obama lmao
Watch as the American economy improves
And then they will come up with a new excuse why affording shit is actually bad
quite the contrary, unironically the entire world are at the mercy of the "service" companies like Google, Apple, Meta.
All of these companies dont create value.
Is all speculative value on the cloud that can be erased as soon as you ban these apps
Google will bend over for whatever larger country can provide its managers with lithium and storages.
Turns out china has that capacity and google can flee america as soon as the chinese service sector becomes mildly big (in the smallest instance it would be 5 times larger than America's)
All these companies exist in a vacuum and can be bombed on irrelevance as fast as they spawned.
Their legitimacy deoends on america
And american capacity to defend them depends on induatrial output
You know trump will do it
Bro you just make processing camps for illegals into work camps and put those beaners to work for 2 cents an hour lmfao
Google flee America
My sides. That's a funny one argue
How can a glowie tool flee the states?
All of these companies dont create value
you used google to search for info on china's this china's that and to download those yellow pussies photos you're spamming Anon Babble with.
wtf are you on about how those companies "don't creat value".
American federal government is a surrogate for corporations
Not viceversa.
You think hedge funds work for glowies? Rather glowies do their bidding so they fund the DNC and by extent their wages
The stock market isn't speculative value retard, its very literally real capital. If you banned google services (aka the internet) you would wipe trillions of dollars overnight. You don't understand how any of this works.
Cringe because tariffs just pass the costs on to consumers and small businesses. Especially so if we don't produce a domestic alternative in a reasonable quantity or at all.
Collecting data is not value in the traditional sense.
These are basically surveillance/propaganda machines that are themselves banned in the fatest growing economy (china has its own social media, russia has its own social media, india is heading that way)
As soon as hardware (which is the main factor preventing software deatachment) is more efficiently produced by china there wont be any reason companies like google wont be bombed out of existence if not simply move out
The data of a country whose economy is a compressing vassal economy will compress over time.
Needless to mention this is not how you would like to keep your economy
Read "technofeudalism" from Varoufakis.
He goes into this shit.
Corpos will pump money into inflating the cloud and their own stock pumping inflation and worsening livelihood

Derp de derp derp da derp
not viceversa
Trade wars are the lamest shit in the world. Why can't we all just prosper together?
mirror measures and getting closer to china
meh gringo overlords chink overlords
what is the difference?
The only purpose of tariffs are to protect domestic industry (Industries that already suck at innovating and competing). A universal tariff would be retarded as it ignores the fact that we simply don't produce everything in the quantities that we use. It would just be more inflation.
But I honestly don't think it'll happen. Someone with more brains than him will convince him to not do it, or it'll be struck down by some other branch with more reason.
Tf is that gif?
I'd say it's based.
the protection of domestic industry may revive the rust belt into bustling factories and the mining sites again in the future.
corporations work for the nu-fed cacas
If corpos worked for the federal government america would be a chinese styled communism.
'free' trade does not benefit the consumer one bit. it benefits their bosses.
i look forward to the tariffs. finally we start showing up with some fucking balls
if you only have a service sector you end up with a uk situation with a massive wealth disparity in the place where all the service jobs are vs the rest of the country
you did enough damage to your flag don't you think
Someone with more brains than him will convince him to not do it
I mean you can watch interviews from all his previous advisors and they all seem to say the same thing - he's insanely stubborn, and can't be convinced to change his mind on anything, and they had to just distract him to try to get him to do really stupid shit all the time. Since he's mostly appointing loyalists, assuming they actually get into office we can't count on that like we could last time I don't think.
They will change their tune and stop jewing us inorder to keep the ameribucks flowing
