OK good luck taxing Americans, that'll show us

More illegal tariffs. Jesus Christ. Remove the dementia patient from office.

We could have voted Harris.

None of this - absolutely none of this was necessary.

See, the problem is with Harris there would have been one genocide instead of 3 and I'm entirely unfamiliar with the concept of harm reduction. If it isn't perfect it's the worst thing that has ever happened.

I though UE is a block, It is not possible to set tariffs only for X countries.

[-] notabot@piefed.social 11 points 3 months ago

It's the US setting tarrifs for importing into the US, so they can play by their own rules (or lack thereof). Basically trump wants to charge Americans more because some other countries' leaders hurt hus fee-fees.

Go on then, do it you cunt
