Yay, tariff wars, every one wins when there are wars, always
Gotta say, based on everything I see around me these days, as a group, Americans seem dumber than average.
reagan gutted our education system, then bush ii broke it, then trump set it on fire.
expect us to get even dumber
So much so that one could argue the GOP platform relies on ignorance. It is the only way to get people to consistently vote against their own best interests.
America just elected someone who tried to coup them. It’s fucking insane.
War? What is it good for?
A relatively very small amount of people
the Economy \o/
85% of U.S. electricity imports are from Canada
We could just flick the switch on and off a few times. Seems to work on toddlers.
Lmao, I hope he’s stupid enough to tarrif that too. Just go ahead and double the cost of living, that’ll go well…
This one doesn’t make any sense to me. Of course all of our electricity imports come from Canada, I suspect the other 15% is mexico cause I don’t know who else we even can import from. That said, probably most of these ‘imports’ are more like trades in that sometimes the nearest grid is across the border. I don’t think Canada is sending bulk power to the US consistently (maybe on certain days depending on hydro and renewables) and doubt a tarriff here would be nearly as big an impact as something like steel. I could be wrong though
Thought I heard it was the hydro plants and therefore mostly New York and Michigan rather than small bits here and there… Don’t think they can be just turned off either.
This will mostly hurt blue states so he doesn’t give a shit
Let’s scrap any BYD tarrifs, 20k electric vehicles for everyone is a big win and it should teach Trump/Musk a lesson.
Fight turd with turd
they really said OH YEAH? WELL WE CAN CHARGE OUR OWN CITIZENS MORE THAN YOU CHARGE YOUR OWN!!!1!1!1!1!1!!!
Refusing to respond to tariffs is a terrible international strategy. It leads to your export sector being unable to compete.
They apply them at large, we apply them so it hurts Republicans
