Someone is about to find out how good the S&P is at limbo.

What does China even import from the US? Doesn't China tariff imports out the ass anyway?

April 2, the day Trump ruined the world.

Sell everything except gold and Bitfuck

buy the dip! we gonna moon tomorro-ACK!

I get that Trump is trying to stop China from becoming the new global superpower, so tariffs make sense, but why would he tariff our allies too? He literally makes them turn to China because China is only tariffing the US

LIBERATE ME MORE, MASSA

no. also china needs the food or they will literally starve. so it's a bit silly.

trump done fucked up

Some Republican senator was already crying about most farmers being one bad month away from bankruptcy so my guess is yes

GLORY TO THE PARTY REEEEEE

but why would he tariff our allies too?

He campaigned on fair trade. Meaning if country X has a 20% tariff on US goods, then it's only fair that the US puts a 20% tariff on their goods back.

Why did US allies put tariffs on US goods in the first place is what you should be asking

No no protectionism is more progressive than mercantilism, but less progressive than free trade. Free trade is stupid if our partners don't free trade, and besides tariffs they were controlling the value of their currency and other things to gain advantage over us in trade. Not all were the same though.

But the tariffs are based on the trade deficit the US has with these countries, it makes literally no sense to tariff them over that

Based. Fuck the United States of Israel, hope China suplexes them.

I guess that's the only good side of this entire thing

Always welcome in our robot future cities anon.

But the tariffs are based on the trade deficit the US has with these countries

Imagine you dont really give a shit about trade outside of just taking. Now imagine how not serious you could be as you come up with some half-assed way on how to set tariffs you're ultimately going to increase even more anyway.

the usa is going isolationist mode again, and china will take its place
I hope that's what MIGAdrones voted for

the middle king is open for business. Americans need not apply.

(((allies)))

Okay nows the time to capitulate Trump

Say that you made the greatest trade deal ever and we won

DOW FUTURES DOWN MORE THAN 1,000 POINTS AS CHINA RETALIATES ON TARIFFS

Trump will pussy out but the Chink and EU tariffs will remain. This will be the end game.

Do you really think trump did not expect this? The most obvious bait this century and CHYNA has proven again their total lack of spatial IQ

You fucking cum slurping retard goddamn

In a week you'll be on the to next propaganda chip because you're a ridiculous clown NPC and no one take you seriously anymore

Drumpf is gonna put the gays in camps bros!

lmao

kek dw any actual impact on israel will be compensated by american taxpayer dollars aid

Trump is either a Russian asset, trolling USA before death or just fucking old and senile.
USA is collapsing in real time.

That’s also partially because these farmers are kept in a pseudo-indentured servitude by large agricultural companies. Look at how Tyson and Perdue treats their farmers.

Let's put it this way: we have no solid proof he's a Russian asset. But if he were, he would be doing exactly what he's doing right now.

I'm not a particularly religious man but I've been half-assedly praying for this moment over the past 20 years, Thank you Jesus, Allah or Vishnu or Whoever for sending Trump to finally destroy the United States.

Death to the United States and death to Israel!

The US is literally the United States of Israel, be serious anon

USA will just trade with Israel only (dead Palestinian children, foreskin and sand). No biggie:)

wait, did s_o_y get filtered? onions

implying china would have bought even a single fucking thang off the U.S. before anyway

Because mods are stupid. Genuinely no reason. They filtered it years ago.

spammed too much

Allies

The oblast of Amerika doesn't have allies, only mother Russia matters.

N

If by kill you mean chinese people have to pay a premium from pork farms they own in the US, yes.

day 90 of eurocucks from countries that are reliant on exporting to mine and already had tariffs screaming that my country with few exports and many imports will 'collapse' by simply buying from the internal market

Lol
Lmao

Must suck to be a countrylet with no natural resources or nuclear power plants, huh.

We are going isolationist, deal with Russia yourself balt shits.
NOT MY PROBLEM

shills posting the exact same thing on every social media platform

Lmao

NO YOU CAN'T DO THAT WE TOLD YOU YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO RESPOND

people stating the obvious

lets just wait for the other 200 countries reaction

Return to your handler. Explain to them that repeating the same 4 retarded bulletpoints verbatim isn't working

Running the world hasn't done us much good. You can all fend for yourselves. We're going to stay comfy on our own continent while you struggle with competition for resources through the rest of this century.

the penguin empire will deal the killing blow

What I don't get is why he wants everyone else to drop their VAT (which applies to local products as well; it's a flat tax) while the US has a sales tax. He wants banks around the world to be regulated and for credit to become very difficult to get, but in America, any small bank anywhere is printing infinite money without repercussions. He cries about currency manipulation, yet the FED is independent, doesn't listen to him, and does all that nonstop.
Also, lamenting about something stupid like: you've got to stop directing investment into productive stuff, this is not fair!

TOP KEK

Trump is retarded. This will lead to all other countries cooperating to fuck over the US.

Yea but think from the perspective of poor billionaires. That land can get a bunch of slaves over night and sell food for w/e new currency or hyperinflated numbers shop up in the future, so it's a hedge. I think you're not sensible enough about their concerns, they just want to keep all their wealth, so what if they buy more and more? People didn't care about their lords in the feudal era.

They're going to find out that the US was much easier to deal with. This is going to be comical to watch.
For everyone not in the US|, it's going to be awful. Just saying that it's going to be funny watching the rest of you miss us when we're not ruling the world.

Every time he proposed similarly asinine shit during his first 4 years, it always turned out to be a tactic to start negotiations from a position of strength.

The guy is obsessed with deal-making. You'd think most people would have figured that out by now

Meaning if country X has a 20% tariff on US goods

Nobody has double digits blanket tariffs on US goods. The numbers on the cardboard were all fakes. Some countries have tariffs on specific products to protect local industries. Fair tariffs would have been max 2%

Every time he proposed similarly asinine shit during his first 4 years, it always turned out to be a tactic to start negotiations from a position of strength.

Examples?
And what deal does he even want to make? What can he even demand from the world?

China is fucking retarded, Trump will just raise to match. That's the whole point. This is just countries admitting that they're non-competitive with the U.S. and they need tariffs on us more than we do on them.

This is just countries admitting that they're non-competitive with the U.S.

It's the literal opposite actually. You'll never get it though cause you're a brainwashed cultist.

Ameriturds will eat their own feces by the end of the year.

China and all other countries on that list will cooperate to fuck over the US while increasing trade amongst themselves. I would not be surprised if the US enters a deep recession because of this.

tariff, arguably, your most important trading partner because of "trade imbalances"

trading partner tariffs you back the same percentage

surprisedpikachu.jpg

You're genuinely brainwashed if you think the tariffs aren't blatant market manipulation at this point. You're all about to get rug pulled.

They're going to find out that the US was much easier to deal with.

"Was" is the operative word. US is impossible to deal with now with a lunatic in charge. Cooperating with US simply isn't an option anymore, so everyone's got to cooperate with someone else now (probably China).

"Nothing ever happe-ACK!"

Realistically China can simply buy all their groceries in the entire latin america for a small bonus rather than pay full tariffs, they already buy pork and beef from Mexico rather than the US because they already saw the latter buying from the spics and stamping a Texas seal of approval.

No foreign power has defeated Americans permanently yet

However Americans will defeat America instead because of culture war reasons.

damn bots are out in full force, key word utilized is the term 'brainwashed.' Listen. We have our tariffs, and your country has a horrible trade imbalance, tariffs are now in place, if our country now has a 15% tariff, and you say "we'll match it to 15%" Trump will just take it to 30%. You raise to 30%, he's going to 45%. It's that simple, or do you want to argue with our military?

Everyone needs to watch Code Geass because Trump is pulling a Lelouch.

Like many great empires, they kill themselves

We will tariff you wil twice what you tariff us and then some. Also we will stop using your digital services in favor or European/Chinese ones even if they are not quite as good at this point in time. If you want to use your military, we our guest but beware because you are up against the entire world and there are no fighter jets strong enough to carry the average Amerifat.

you sound deranged.

WE TARIFF YOU TWICE

then we just match. lol. tariffs are staying.

So they are choosing to starve instead of remove tariffs. This must be the epitome of "do nothing"

Art of the deal kek

Meaning if country X has a 20% tariff on US goods, then it's only fair that the US puts a 20% tariff on their goods back.

The only country that came even remotely close to this level was - get this - China

damn bots are out in full force

That little faggot in Butler was supposed to be the Suzaku, and he failed. We're stuck with bear king Trump in perpetuity now.

beauty products cause rich chinese women don't want to put lead on their face

Democrats are going to permarule the US after the midterms thanks to your "stable genius" of a president.

Afghanistan and Vietnam argued with your military and won lol

What even the US import to china anyways?

then we just match.

That's basically the point of the coordinated international response. The more the US isolates itself from the whole international market the bigger it fucks itself until either their economy is destroyed or they remove the tariffs.

yea i voted for trump but after this i’m never voting red again. joe biden sucked but at least his puppeteers were not this retarded.

I want the U.S. to go isolationist. We can supply ourselves, the problem here is that the world needs access to us, not the other way around. Europe and Asia bitch about us being in your economy and want us out? So be it, we don't need them. However the world will halt without America. Europe is tough because of NATO, and if Asia has nowhere to sell the products you'll have an over saturation of cheap chinese shit in Europe making everything worse. Good.

a question faggots, what about the rest of the World ? EU, Africa, South America, will those tariffs rape us? i mean from food, electronics to clothes
i need to change some Home Appliances, my phone and i don't want to pay 50% more in 2-3 months, that's why i am asking

you love to see all the screeching europoors and browns in this thread.

The absolute state of MIGAtards
Browns are the new Trump voters

Yes all of those American domestically manufactured products we import to China such as.........

Lol Chang is getting his shit pushed in. It's glorious.

Just don't import stuff from America and you'll be ok

all of those American domestically manufactured products we import to China such as

You export insane amounts of ONIONS BEANS

Send them a lot of s_ybeans and food

our browns came from this land.
your browns invaded you and you allowed it.

THE NUMBER HAS TO GO UP FOREVER IT JUST HAS TO, OK!?

having no argument because you realize how fucked your situation is. perhaps this is a good thing.

... yeah? why wouldn't you want number to go up? you have issues with self-sabotage man

Food, mostly.

If by "this land" you mean the world, you are right. But I doubt a hundred fifty million South Americans, Indians and Chinese came from the US. Nor did the additional 50 million niggers.
The US is fucked and so are MIGAtards. Republicans will lose all elections going forward.

LOL
Yeah it's that simple.

i thought you europoors were supposed to be educated atleast?

liberals up until yesterday:

Trump is working on behalf of large corporations to fuck over the working people to endlessly boost profits over every sensible metric. This is late stage capitalism and must be overthrown. Death to global capitalism!

liberals for not even 24 hours now:

NOOOOO YOU CANT JUST RUIN THE STOCK PORTFOLIOS OF THE HEDGE FUND MANAGERS

republicans can just ban any opposition and claim they are foreign funded with 0 proof like EUnuchs do

If your economic thesis is based on the Chinese being unwilling to starve in the service of a larger societal goal you may be on the wrong side of the bet.

Everyone fits into your nice clear bad good buckets don't they. Ah, the simple life.

MIGAtards definitely aren't as educated voters overwhelmingly chose Kamala over Trump.
Good luck with that lmao
This is Anon Babble not Anon Babble you stupid neet.

I wish it was legal to chainsaw you in half in front of your screaming family

this is what retards actually believe
democracy was a mistake

Life would be so fucking simple if I was that stupid man. Every day I drink 6 beers in the hopes of killing enough brain cells to be happy-stupid.

They buy a shitload of your food and pump the prices for locals because they poured toxic shit into every last inch of their shithole.

INFLATION JUST HAS TO EXIST AND IS UNSTOPPABLE, OK?

see

warlord du wung han sneezes

3 gorillion dead

Because 90% of our "allies" are weak backstabbing sniveling little snakes. Just look at how europoors and Canadians act. Only a few countries act like real allies to the US, the rest are limp dicked leeches.

This will make inflation WORSE retard
and fucking wait until they are forced to subsidize failing businesses with printed money, it's going to be MAJESTIC

this is just like my chinese cartoons

i bet you make fun of redditors too
kys

Duster is quicker

Either put up a compelling counter argument or fuck off back to pleddit you pseudo-intellectual cock sucking faggots

KYS Trumpnigger
Americans are fat and retarded.

That 30 million happened during the Civil war iirc

t. uneducated Trumpcel

and fucking wait until they are forced to subsidize failing businesses with printed money

No, let them burn. If a company cannot exist through domestic manufacturing they shouldn't exist at all.

seething literal shitskin

Lol
Lmao
You are about to return to reality you fucking parasite

one thing is no leftist midwit can explain is why foreign countries are allowed to tariff america, but america can't reciprocate.

enjoy collapsing dollar then

Me + you + a 10lb sledge hammer aimed directly between your eyes

imposed tariffs on israel

even israel was surprised by them

there are no allies here
absolutely no one wins in a tariff war and if everyone keeps retaliating we will get into a deep recession

some level of tariffs are good

therefore all levels of tariffs are good

See

do you want to argue with our military?

GIB MONEY OR WE KILL YOU

let them burn

Oh, eventually they will
You know what happens to prices when most companies die and a few have to supply the entire nation?

Thanks for proving the point lmao

absolutely no one wins in a tariff war

The American working class does.

New companies take their place? There isnt a limited supply of companies, asshole.

other countries are keynesian retards this means that we have to be as retarded as they are

Enjoy having a stuck economy like germany

oh man i am so smart

i can only post vagueries and no actual coherent arguments

man if only i was dumber dude haha

stop posting on this website

New companies take their place?

After the tariffs are lifted and insane economic flat earthism is reverted
Until then it's venezuelan style free for all

There isnt a limited supply of companies

Then why do you need to tariff foreign goods

The Nineteen-Eighty-Four tier flip flop of democrats whining about American intervention overseas in the 2000s to Democrats whining about America's isolationism in the 2020s is fascinating.

what are you even on about, everyone knows that Americas allies are the biggest cucks ever, the fact is all these trade deals were created by American companies which makes this entire thing even more confusing

I refuse to take unserious retards seriously. The anon I responded to is saying that because some level of reciprocal tarrifs might be justified, therefore this retarded policy of 20% tariffs on everyone is justified. There is no solution to that kind of idiocy but repeatedly calling said person a dumbass until they stop speaking and ideally go back to /ptg/.

War is a little different kind of intervention

This is one of the most braindead takes I have ever read.
The US projected their softpower through all the investment they did overseas, its not for profit short term, its to prevent china for example from flooding africa with investments and basically having an invisible hand controlling it.
What you fail to realize is that by retracting all this investment you've opened the way for the historical enemies of the US to fill in and take control.
Furthermore these tariffs on allied countries removes investment and creates anti trade blocks like the asian countries are doing. If europe allies with canada and south america in creating an anti US trade block we are in deep shit.

american working class

You are clearly just a shitposter and have no idea the damage this will create to people already living paycheck by paycheck

The anon I responded to is saying that because some level of reciprocal tarrifs might be justified, therefore this retarded policy of 20% tariffs on everyone is justified.

That is not what they wrote. You invented that in your mind and then replied to it. His post states nothing of the sort. You are a stupid gorilla nigger, possibly the blackest, dumbest, stupidest gorilla nigger to ever post on this website. Go back to r*ddit.

people already living paycheck by paycheck

lol
lmao

He didnt say that you're a nigger!

What he said didn't matter, who he agrees with already does.

it was real in my mind

reddit then kys

Shitskins voted for Trump. Le based Indians and Hispanics amirite MAGApede!???
Can you even lift that, Murifat?
Proving that Trumptards are indeed retarded.

BBC porn

The point is that other countries did NOT tariff the US or by like 1% instead of the imaginary numbers Trump is claiming.

Only Trump voters watch that shit anyway.

Read their post mongo, and then think:

japan has 2% tariffs on the US

what would be the reciprocal amount to 2% tariffs?

is that the amount of tariffs we are discussing at the moment?

therefore, does this argument make even the slightest sense at all?

You’re on biz, people are going to actually read the things others post. If that makes you brain hurt, I recommend going back to whichever circlejerk you came from. Judging by the hurt reaction, I’m guessing I was on the money with /ptg/.

I'm not even american

i didn't say that.
i was thinking of canada's doug ford appearing on american tv, seething in tears, and saying the tariffs will be a tax on the american people.
so are his tariffs a tax on his canadian people?

but we are already keynesian retards.
we printed half the money in existence during covid.

agree with this anon.

so if it's just 1%, why don't they just drop it? inconsequential no?

bye guys i have to go, it's 7am here in non-europoorbrownland.

so if it's just 1%, why don't they just drop it? inconsequential no?

Or the US could also countertariff them 1% instead of tariffing everyone 10-100% including the fucking penguins.

Fools! This will only hurt Chinese citizens!

well actually, we can do whatever we want.
but if it's too problematic for them, i'd suggest dropping their 1% tariff.

bye talk to you later, have a good day sweety

In less than two years publically beating and insulting trump supporters will not only be allowed it will be encouraged.

I have to go tariffs bad everyone else does them

Lmao no kidding retard

Not very commonly known but China is a significant purchaser of colored gemstones. There was even a period of time where China tried creating an artificial version of a type of gem native only to Oregon in the past and some mine owners will refuse to do business with you if you resell stones to China because of it. Probably too niche for tariffs to apply though

What about redditors like you?

are you posting from 2016?

well actually, we can do whatever we want.

And so can every other country in the world. If you tariff them too much, they can even ally together and tariff you. It's all about proportionality.

bye talk to you later, have a good day sweety

Back in the cagey, wagey.
As it should.

leftists do tend to have self-destructive behavior.

like please let me just drink alcohol to numb away my mediocrity!

Yes we know, you're European. You're always European

tariff imports

companies pass them onto consumers

everything gets more expensive

effective tax rate in increased

the lower your income the higher percentage or your income goes to tariffs

It's just a way to transfer tax burden onto the working class so he can do his tax cuts for the rich.

oh no i'm not going to the cage. haven't been in over 10 years. lol!

p.s. what happens when a business loses its biggest customer?

The algorithm behind lib day tariff rates is literally published by the admin and makes no consideration for the tariff levels of other countries, your uneducated opinion on the matter is worthless despite how many of you tourists there are on here parroting the same ragebait

next you’ll say “take that liberals *crashes the economy*”

so true bestie!

This is exactly like when Voldemort beat Spiderman

oh my god guys the inflation will ruin china everyone knows it'll just get passed off onto the consumer it's bad for the middle class and stuff
eggs

Doctors need to be investigated for prescribing so much copium!
Or when the Drumpfies beat the evil trannies.

no wonder trump wants to tariff canada.
i wonder if doug ford himself deals in fent?

inflation has been out of control
time for a little deflation, reign it in.

When I replied to you I was actually replying to the wrong post. And yet, you give this long-winded reply about "my opinion" which I didn't even share. What da?

to people already living paycheck by paycheck

Didnt realize those people ate stocks

p.s. what happens when a business loses its biggest customer?

They look for other customers.

Uhm it's called being BASED grampa!

i see. what happens when there's only like 5 other customers, and they already do business with those 5?

reply to me

I reply to you

what the fuck are you replying to me for

Get those greasy sausage fingers on the right keys amigo

It is bad for China, they are betting of Trump folding just like he did in 2017 in the Canada trade war he started.

If the other customers previously did business with the largest former customer but also no longer do, the 6 companies will increase business in between themselves.

Nah bro. America bad China good, the desperate euros told me so.

so like, they just buy harder? like smashing BUY BUY BUY instead of little buys?

If Trump only put tariffs on China, that would be bad for them. Instead he is uniting the world against the US by tariffing everyone (except his master Israel).

ITT SEETHING europoors and bugmen, you love to see it. Many such cases!

Each of them produces different stuff so they can buy from each other while the former biggest business watches from the sidelines while becoming the next Brazil.

except his master Israel

You have to read the words and numbers together anon

If Trumptards such as yourself are not invested in the stock market, what are you even doing here?
Trump took the tariffs on Israel back today.

Remind me what tariff the Falklands islands have against the USA again?
He is currently tariffing the Falkland Islands at 41% and claiming they charge the U.S. 82%.
But I don't see it. It's not based on tariffs but export import ratios, which is the most retarded bullshit because 41% means they'll no longer sell anything to the US at all, they're so small they're not dependant on it either.

keep asking questions and we'll send Prince Andrew back there to murder some more kids

I'm not seeing a refutation here

Until now it was more profitable to do more trade with the US. Now it's becoming more profitable to trade between the rest of the world thanks to that stable genius of a president.

Huh what u mean

China can sell their cars, smartphones, TVs, laptops to the 95% of the world population not living in the US of A.

It's basically fish, sheep and cattle country. That's all they do outside of small business type deals. They just export to the highest bidder and don't really import anything but what they get from Argentina or the UK.

oh i see.
euroCHADS won. bugs and browns won.
we americans lost. now please leave us in silence for a few decades.

Yes, that bastion of capitalism that is the EUSSR. They can barely afford meat.

The only things trump has done that would be in the interest of Russia is stop sending trillions to Ukraine and threaten to pull out of nato, both of which are perfectly within the interest of the US as well.

next you’ll say “Russia and North Korea are the only relevant countries without sanctions”

We will leave you and your African/jewish masters alone.

No it's a bunch of islands that are part of the UK, which gets tariffed at 10%, it's also why Trump is making himself look like a lolcow again.

Argentina tried to steal them when Tatcher became first minister in the '80s. Because she was a woman and wouldn't retaliate. What followed was pure kino.
