Tariffs Catch-All

That's a lot of winning.

I wonder if they would have been better off with the corporate tax rate being what it was pre trump tax cuts.

Meanwhile, the trade talks with India have dragged out, with talk of a mini-deal (a delay in severe tariffs against India) by August 1 but more negotiations in India in August targeting a more detailed agreement/framework by October. Which suggests the U.S. negotiators don’t expect 100% tariffs on India to happen after August 1 to blow up that schedule.

Yes, but the US negotiators are not in the loop. Trump does what he does. Especially to distract from Epstein.

I hope mentions of “trans-shipments” in government files are being flagged by DOGE and eliminated

So, Americans pay more for their goods and Filipinos pay no tariffs for our exports.
What a great deal-maker!
Only in MAGA world is paying more for goods and services considered a great deal.

Gonna need more details on this but sounds like a deal is cut.

I'd wait a few days to see if these trade "deals" are actually official or what the details are before believing that they've completed a real trade deal, or if it actually benefits the USA. These people are so dishonest and so much of what they do is all spin and appearances rather than reality I'd be very skeptical of anything they announce before believing it was real or a good deal for the American people.

Trump announces a lot of deals that turn out to be nothing as advertised. We shall see.

You don’t believe Japan will pay tariffs to the US?

Who in their right mind would want to invest $550 billion into an enterprise where they only get 10% of the profits?

I really wish other countries would simply not talk to the US until he's gone.

Own the libs, one Reese at a time.

Yes he did

"Indonesia has copper, a powerful copper ..."

What kind of idiot says stuff like this? Oh, that's right ... our dotard president.
