...that tariffs are paid by the exporting country? Do people here on AR believe that? Do americans believe that?

Like.... the ability to tax other countries? And that nobody found out this trick until now?

of course and he is not the only one. you have a few trumps cult followers here and everything the supreme leader is saying is gold even if wrong lol ...

...He also claimed the tariffs would create more manufacturing in the United States which “will mean stronger competition and lower prices for consumers.”

Hope the 'murican kids will enjoy their shiny $125 hula-hoop rings, proudly made in the US. It's not every day one sees countries willingly follow the economic playbook of Venezuela.

Trump just announced marine tariffs on ALL imports.

Again, no one can provide constitutional legitimacy due Trump’s unilateral tariffs.

It has to be an act, for an receptive audience.
His campaign donors probably understand this.

Thing is, 25% isn't enough to make America production competitive in some fields.
It's barely enough to feed the federal bulldog, and not enough for that after we do our CPI substitutions.

Deficit spending will continue...

Lane will be here shortly to explain.

NZ copped 10% We are breathing a small sigh of relief.

apparently the excuse is because we have a goods and services tax. Despite that being the same rate our local producers and customers pay on home made products as well.

They will [maybe] pay for it through lost sales and revenue. Will it be enough to impact their businesses? Maybe and maybe not.

Seriously man. You need to learn English. I said exactly the opposite of your interpretation.

If you read what I wrote, I was saying we thought we might have got more.

is it what you wrote ? lol:

i did not misunderstood what you wrote unless you had sarcasm in your writing which was not easy to decipher ...

Read what I wrote, and understand it dude. LOL.

No sarcasm in it LOL.

DO you see the difference?

Why would we be breathing a sigh of relief at a tariff imposed, if we thought we would be spared?

if you charged more then he would have charged more.

all Trump is doing is leveling the tariff percentages placed on our goods and services going the other direction.
