All Trudeau needs to do is implement a reciprocal tariff that also increases by like amount. Boom, now you have an infinite tariff loop and a single transaction in either direction is enough to create infinite GDP.

Checkmate, economists.

Ya honestly Trump is so fucking stupid that it's starting to feel like he's doing a bit. Like is he mocking his own supporters at this point? I think the world needs to respond to trump with something exactly like this. Infinite tariff loop is actually a policy I would support unironically.

Well his first though after he clashed with Zelensky was "That will be great television"

Sound to me like he is just thinking in tv drama plotlines, but unlike on tv you can't just cancel a show when everything goes to shit ...

I get why the USA doesn't see Melania anywhere ...... If I'd say half the things he said, my wife would not show herself to anyone either. If i'd say all of it she'd be gone far far far away long before i finished babbling

🀣 You make it sound like she cares / gives a fuck. She's as much of a piece of shit as him.

Come on now, calling Trump the dumbest man on Earth is doing a great disservice to JD Vance who has put in an enormous amount of effort this last year to pip him at the post.

It's like he doesn't understand tariffs... It's hurting your country.

If you put a tariff, it increases the price you're paying. It makes the goods more expensive for your industry and your population. It makes your industry less competitive as your industry has to sell at higher prices.

Then comes the reciprocal tardif what makes your industry even less competitive. Putting more tardif will hurt your industry.

Did he say "he was the champion of the industry" or whatever similar? Well people voted for the person who doesn't know what 2+2 makes.

It doesn't hurt his wallet when he is raising prices for all his hotels for secret service and employees 10x and pocketing it. He doesn't give a shit about the average American or this country. Fuck you, I got mine.

His goal is revenge on everyone he doesn't like, and to cause pain for those not like him.

I like that Trudeau announced he was fucking leaving and before he could get his ass out the door and let someone else take the lead, all this shit happens because Trump was elected.

What a fucking circus.

Dude thinks tariffs are Uno cards.

Canada is already going to trade more with us in Europe.

Not to mention the "Governor Trudeau" extra-dumb.

God I hate politics-by-Twitter. I'm appalled that the US is turning into a fascist country, but I'm even more appalled by how pathetic, puerile and trashy the US' new fascist overlords are. At least Hitler dressed in Hugo Boss and made speeches that enthralled people: MAGA dresses like tramps, Steve Bannon-stylee and bullies other countries like kids on the playground.

In 6 months, he's going to be talking about how Canada started this trade war.
