Will tariffs make America great?

none of it is legal imo. he’s declared a fake emergency and writing executive orders that are tenuously related to even the fake emergency

i mean obviously i’m not a lawyer so i have no real basis to say anything but it seems to me that the government under trump is a lot more about what you can get away with than any interest in actual law or lasting change. in other words it’s a free for all cash grab.

Well the new deal sees the UK cut two thirds off their average tariff from 2024 while the US triples theirs.

On what though? When you look at the things we actually sell to the USA it changes very little for us.

Plus, we aren't going to start importing US beef when it doesn't meet food standards.

Not that it would stop him but is it legal for him to single out a company and impose tariffs just on their products?

Whatever the emperor does is legal, By royal decree executive order. No one in "free speech" USA dares say otherwise.

Wow. It’s amazing to see you embrace Socialism so quickly!
As soon as your god-emperor told you to divest from capitalism you drank that Flavor-Aid with true gusto

Hint: protectionism and anti-immigration are textbook government interference with the free market

Bernie Sanders could get up on a pulpit, say word for word what Trump does about tarriffs and the MAGA crowd would boo him.

I have been a Socialist since the late 1960s so I don't know what you mean.

Hint: If you like Corvettes it dosn't mean you love General Motors ... any more than being a Socialst means whatever you think it means.

How dare you minimize the dreadful emergency that is dolls! Dolls are pouring over our unsecured borders in their teeming millions, carrying with them all their doll accessories! Little hats! Little shoes! Little purses! Even little strollers with other, smaller dolls inside! It's a terrible threat, a cataclysmic crisis, a dreadful doom, an awful Armageddon, and nobody is safe from the dolls! And don't fall for the propaganda of dolls who claim to self-identify as "action figures", we all know they're actually dolls! DOLLS! Everywhere, the dolls!!!!

I just hope Trump can save us from the dolls. Because behind the dolls...may be stuffed animals.

How will you know? The only way you know EU foods are meeting standards is because they get tested in the EU. The UK's testing regime is literally thoughts and prayers.

US automakers are unhappy with _____'s deal with the UK. They claim that it will give an advantage to UK automakers because they will only have to pay a 10% tariff on cars exported to the US while US automakers will have to pay 20whatever percent on auto parts imported from Mexico or the future 51st state.

Trump don't care. He got to go on tv and say "Look what I did. Aren't I great!"
