Trump is increasing steel tariffs to 50%. Wonderful.


and my Province's Premier wants steel and aluminum production to stay in Canada and may cost the US billions. Interesting.

Well, it is TACO Tuesday so the tariffs will probably be back down by Friday.

We shall see if Tariff Grandpa naps or gets angry at the Chinese again before he (supposedly) talks to Xi on Friday. Chinese government has been slow walking rare earth export permits and a lot of companies are warning about production shutdowns.

Xi is Lyndon “If I get ‘em by the short and curlies, the hearts and minds will follow” Johnson playing to Trump’s toddler throwing his food at the wall.

“thank you Trump” 🤣



Tariffs are supposed to hurt exporters in China, not consumers.

I supposed Trump shooting Americans in the foot, has confused people about who the tariffs are supposed to target.

Consumers in China would be hurt by China's own tariffs on the USA, if they were as stupidly applied as Trumps.

If instead they just replace US products with products from other countries, then only the US gets hurt by Chinas tariffs.

As a frequent customer of Starrett precision machinist's and toolmaker's measuring instruments I received the following notice from them. Fucking Trump, I wish I could garnishee that asshole for making me pay more for my tools due to his idiotic beliefs re tariffs.
