More like his masters yanked his leash.
Donald “Tariffs” Trump say Washington needs full control over Greenland, Canada & Panama. 500% tariffs on China if EU does it, “this a trade war now”
- Thread starter Mask
- Start date
That ninja just was making noise,
When he first started the tariff noise, some of them talking heads said certain tariffs just won’t stick
These current list of tariffs he released won’t be enforced just because retaliatory tariffs would be more devastated. Months later what do we have, rolling back of tariffs. Pushing the date back and so on.
Take India for example, he talked all of that shit but many items from India ain’t under tariffs.

China Is Already Winning the Trade War America Wanted
Trump's “grand bargain” won’t happen at a time when tariffs and export controls have become combat by other means.

Historians may record these recent weeks as the moment when our new age of economic warfare got very real indeed. At the end of September, the US Department of Commerce announced a crackdown on provision of semiconductors and chipmaking equipment to subsidiaries of blacklisted Chinese companies. Beijing then went massive in its retaliation, unveiling export licensing requirements that weaponize China’s rare-earths dominance to an unprecedented degree.
China, wrote Dean Ball, who recently served in the Trump administration, had asserted “the power to forbid any country on Earth from participating in the modern economy,” because it had put their access to materials that underpin a wide array of strategic industries at risk. US President Donald Trump responded angrily, calling the restrictions a “moral disgrace” while also threatening China with new sanctions and heavy tariffs. If implemented, those measures would restore a de facto trade embargo between the two largest economies in the world.
In other words, China is about to buy Ethiopia's debt. That's good for America's credit rating.
It also means Ethiopia has switched from the world's most stable currency to one who's value can switch on the communist party's whim.
So it don’t mean they stop paying in dollars and now paying in Yuan?
