This shit is why tariffs are supposed to be set by Congress, not a single individual (let alone a demented narcissist).

I know I'm beating a dead horse, but still, somehow there are people who haven't gotten this through their dense fucking skulls yet.

A woman dared to have a thought in her head in front of Trump! Of course he was enraged and retaliatory...

Exactly. Trump has no time, use, or interest in women he can't fuck.

If any two non usa countries ( for example Australia and New Zealand ) went to war they could use this gambit..."Hey Mister President Trump! New Zealand called you an old fogey and said you went into cognitive decline. The word dotard was bandied about!". BOOM! trump goes to war for them.

This isn't news. It's already at 15%, which they finally say at the end of the article.

It's interesting to read the swiss perspective: https://www.seco.admin.ch/seco/en/home/Aussenwirtschaftspolitik_Wirtschaftliche_Zusammenarbeit/Wirtschaftsbeziehungen/usa.html

They bury the 200 billion investment in the FAQ but then say that "A third of this will be invested by the end of 2026, based on projects already in the pipeline." So it sounds like they get credit for existing projects, which are roughly on the order of 200 billion in 5 years.
