Politics All Things Trump

[HorniePonie]

Those numbers have to be cherry picked, inflated _and_ with VAT (which is still not an import tariff against the US).

If I for example want to buy motorcycle spare parts from the US like I often do, the tariff is 3,7%.

Maybe its imperial measurements they stayed with it and the rest went to metric. Instead of creating a new tax they called it all a tariff.
Is there any uneven maths with vat included?

White House explains why Russia not included in Trump's new tariffs

Trump is calling his tariff policy "kind reciprocal," saying he could've been much harsher on US trading partners.

Great nostalgic replay of Biden doing everything to save the border.

I'm sorry it's pulled out from a place where the sun doesn't shine.

I guess UK does have pretty open trade then.

Biggest U.K. export is cars landrovers etc, maybe minis, these get the 25% so I guess we will open factories in USA.

Unless starmer gets the trade deal done. How does it work with teslas, American company, but built in europe? Logical then to ask Tesla to build right hand drive cars in USA and ship them here.

Lots of small vehicle assembly factories will spring up in USA.

Who will build them?

Tesla is more or less done.

Out of which parts do they assemble the cars?

And I have many more questions.

A pecadillo in reality. The French were the best at tariff wars, nobody could mess with their sheep. Before this free trade adventure.

This picture with that chart will go down in history.

I believe you were in favor of EU tariffing China?

Should be an interesting 2025. Stocks down, crypto is getting fisted.

I guess it's calculated with the same methods as the 350 billion aid to Ukraine. Everything is big in America - even rounding errors.

Probably the logic is something silly like "(10% tariff for cars + 25% VAT) * 1,11 EUR to USD exchange rate".

And leaving out all what doesn't suit them.

^ You wouldn't think to hear this kind of talk from a country with the highest gdp in the world and one of the highest gdp per capita rates. When imposing tariffs on third world countries.

I think Batya explained it pretty well. I find her very interesting considering her history. Wall Street laughed all the way to the bank, while US industry was off shoring, creating the "rust belt" in a large swath of the country. I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm very invested in the stock market but expect it to eventually go up. What Trump is doing is a huge re-ordering of the US and global economy. Like that saying, "if want to make an omelette, you have to crack some eggs".

Genuine question from an europoor.
USA GDP grows every year, USA GDP per capita grows every year. Your unemployment level is practically zero. What is the problem my man?
You and republicans (and the lady on vid) i see, make it sound like you are in a great depression and need drastics change NOW, just to survive. The average salary in the US is 20 000 dollars higher than in my country.

This is a chart of tariffs, on a historical context. I quite remember the 50, 80, 90 and early 2000 being your golden years economically and the 1930 your lowest.

Genuinely baffled by the desire to make nike shoes again in the states.

edit. about stocks. I believe they will rebound, but the question is when. The Japanese stock market only rebounded few years ago to the level of 1990.
