Economy If Trump suceeds in getting other countries to get rid of their tariffs against the US, would he become one of the GOAT presidents?

[pinger]

Is true i work for a french company, one of the reasons i understand more about tariffs than you or anyone here.
You gotta to hate Trump i understand you, don't worry everything is going a-oh-okay.

His tax plan is going to make our commercial balance net positive, and you still are going to cry about it. Sad

Haha lol Bigly genius

The Yuan just hit record low against the US, I guess the tariffs is hitting China and other countries pretty hard.

If this leads to every other country to get rid of their tariffs against US exports, do you think Trump will become of the GOAT presidents? The tariffs against the US have been around for 70 years, only for Trump to get rid of them if he succeeds.

If his plan doesn't work, he will become one of the worst Presidents in American history.

But if his plans work, do you think Trump will rise up to be one of the GOAT presidents of the US?

Yuan hitting a record low helps China on exports, China artificially deflating it's currency is one of Trump's main gripes with them. That is exactly the opposite of what trump said he wants.
This why China orchestrated the recent devaluation.





As to the question, maybe.
If it comes at a cost of losing reserve currency status, he could fully succeed on tariffs yet would be literally the worst ever.

Of course, that is very unlikely but the potential win on tariffs is not a massive win, and certainly not if it comes with other costs to global trade.

Conversely if he fails on no tariffs he could still be ok if no lasting damage is done to us standing as a reliable and trusted trade partner. However, the door on "trusted trade partner" is rapidly closing,

Personally, I think the idea of foreign countries paying Tariffs has about equal validity to his assurances Mexico would pay for the big beautiful wall.

It seems like you don't understand trade deficit, just like Trump. So I guess he does have a good chance at becoming your goat president.

Trump's tariffs: China urges unity against ‘trade tyranny’

Manufacturers and exporters are scrambling after 104% levy on China-made goods comes into effect.

www.bbc.com

China has called for the world to unite against Trump's tariffs as the country's exporters reel from crippling new US levies that have risen to 104%.

"Global unity can triumph over trade tyranny," declared an editorial in the state-run newspaper China Daily, noting Beijing's collaborations with Japan, South Korea and other Asian economies. A separate piece called for the European Union to work with it to "uphold free trade and multilateralism".

Fuck those guys. They are getting a taste of their own trade tyranny medicine. They put tariffs on Australian goods as retribution for when Australia called them out for COVID 19.

Any nation who now trades with those NASTY Chinese will be considered an act of war! Trading with CHINA is a threat to the USA!

At least China never pretended to be our friends, who we fought with side by side in every war in living memory.

Anti China sentiment increased in Australia as a result, but that barely even registers compared to the increase in anti American sentiment from these tariffs.

If I take a shit in your kitchen, then smear it everywhere, then scream at you for weeks that it's your fault and you need to come to my house and clean my kitchen before I'll consider cleaning up your kitchen, but eventually I send a cleaning lady to clean up my mess in your kitchen... does that make me a great neighbor or the greatest neighbor ever?

MAGA makes fun of Zelensky being a comedian but this clown is on another level, hawking his shitcoins and shitstocks

The EU agreed today that the 25% counter tariffs will go into effect on the 15th.
These are not all-encompassing tariffs, but tariffs specifically targeting red states production.
A second package of retaliation tariffs will be presented next week.

 

[BFoe]

Lol. At least you admit you're just a hater.

Dude. You think all these nations will just do business as usual in a world where we have tariffs on their shit but they don’t have tariffs on ours? They’ll find new trading partners. They’ll trade bigly with China.
Oil and petroleum products? Europe stopped getting those from Russia and get them from us ever since the Russia-Ukraine war started. Would you like to give the EU such a shit deal that they tell us to fuck off and align with Russia instead? Because that’s what we risk.

This shit is not as simple as tariffs for us=bad, our tariffs on others=good, trade deficits=bigly bad (that one is especially wrong). The whole spiel Trump is giving on tariffs and trade is just wildly wrong, this is much more complicated than you guys seem to grasp.

Spain pushing for EU pivot to China to counter Trump tariffs​

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez set to meet with Chinese president

With agreements due to be signed in areas including pharmaceuticals, agricultural and medical products, Sanchez can argue that Spain is the go-to partner for China in Europe at a time of growing economic uncertainty.


The EU may be pivoting towards China, 4D Chess Donny.
