Economy Trump's April 2nd Tariffs

[Voodoo_Child906]

Why can't we the exact same strategy as the EU, UK, France, India, Mexico, Taiwan, Venezuala, South Korea, Japan, Indonesia, Switzerland, South Africa, Australia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand ? They all negotiated and got their tariffs reduced.

Right now there is only 2 countries in the world that have tariffs far beyond those 10% baseline tariffs.

Because he won't give Canada specific terms/deliverables, why can't he do this?

I don't believe Canada is willing to have that dialogue, they are doing everything they can't to destroy the economy without Trump. In this case he is actually the ally. They have been denying that their own counter tariffs and previous tariffs exist.

I highly doubt any terms coming from Trump had anything to do with tyrannical new legislation the Liberals in which they now will have the ability to look through or seize anyones mail without a warrant and banning cash transactions over $10,000, this means you won't be allowed to take $10,000 out of your bank account, but you sure will be allowed to deposit it lol nothing to see here. It also allows border service to confiscate electronic devices for any reason they deem fit.

See guys we fixed the fentanyl crisis at the border by taking the rights away of people who had nothing to do with it while doing nothing to address the actual people committing the crimes !!

@Cid What is so funny about this post care to point out how any of it is incorrect ?

Fukin clown

Why didn't he start with terms and see? If he gave terms to begin with then at least we'd have a real starting point where real negotiations could take place. The only reason he is saying there's a border emergency now is because that's the only way he could break the USMCA which he negotiated and signed.

And Trump is the reason the Liberals are in power now. The conservatives were up 20 points before the election, then Trump has to shit talk and galvanize the east towards Carney.

Any deals?

Almost at the 3 month mark.

Getting another pause to the pause I'm assuming ?

All Trump does it kick shit down the road for later. Israel and Iran bombing each other? I'll get back to you in 2 weeks. What a weak leader.

You mean did any more countries come to the table to reduce their tarrifs on us?

I'm just asking the question. 3 month pause is almost up. Those bozos claimed 90 countries called them up eager to make deals. That claim was almost 2 months ago...

So where are the sweet deals and trade agreements?

It's easily available information.

The mainstream media isn't reporting on it.

I'm guessing because all of their assumptions came true: The economy is ruined, prices on everything skyrocketed, the market collapsed, and by the end of the fiscal year we will be eating household pets.

What's the point of taking your time to post here, reply to my posts, and tell me to look it up but you couldn't name some countries that made trade agreements with the US?

Remember, a memorandum is not a trade agreement.

Trump tariffs: US economy saw stark drop in GDP growth as businesses rushed to secure imports

The U.S. economy shrank by 0.5% in the first quarter of 2025, between January and March, as two earlier estimates were revised downward by the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Economic Analysis.

Looming fears about the extent of President Donald Trump’s trade war on American trading partners — announced on the so-called “Liberation Day” of April 2 — saw a surge of imports as U.S. companies and households rushed to buy foreign goods before Trump could impose tariffs on them.

The Commerce Department, headed by Secretary Howard Lutnick, previously estimated that the economy fell 0.2% in the first quarter. Economists had forecast no change in the department’s third and final estimate, so the deterioration from earlier data was unexpected.


Gross domestic product (GDP) measures the nation’s output of goods and services, and these are the first figures for Trump’s second term, reversing a 2.4% increase in the last three months of 2024 during the final months of President Joe Biden’s administration.

The data shows that for the first time in three years, the economy contracted — the last time being in the first quarter of 2022.
