    It's like he can't comprehend that other people would react to his actions.

    He raised tariffs, other nations reduced trade with the US and looked elsewhere. If he continues to raise tariffs it will inevitably cause the US to be isolated in trade.

    It's not even a shocking/daring tactic, it's a self destructive tantrum because his misunderstanding has led to mismanagement and now he's doubling down

    That's the goal. He isn't a Kremlin asset, he is a Pyongyang asset, implementing Juche in the US šŸ˜‰

            ...anything, really. And his closest henchmen know this well, too! Just read the entire chat on Signal.

            They're just using him because he pulls (or used to pull) public consensus, while working around his bullshits.

                      Exactly, he doesn't know how to negotiate because a negotiation involves give and take. Trump has only ever known take, take, take

                        We will impose bigger tariffs, a lot of people say they haven't seen tariffs so big, maybe ever and the EU, when you look at Canada the trade deals we have and I saw them and I said "no way, JosƩ!" and then I deported him folks, and the tariffs, the EU is going to pay for them and ours are much bigger than theirs! EU economists, big economists came to me with tears in their eyes and they said Mr President we can't take those tariffs but when Canada who is our state really folks but they bring in so much fentanyl that we just have to tariff them unless they join our amazing and best healthcare system that Obama and crooked Joe ruined, but now it's already better than ever

                          Not to mention some sectors will probably see a loss in revenue as costs become out of reach due to more expensive labour. Not to mention the movement of wealth from bottom to top also reduces people's spending power so if you make things more expensive at the same time... Well... Wcgw? Lol.

                                Threatening to throw a tantrum if one's opponents gang up, is only an admission of vulnerability and an invitation for opponents to gang up.

                                Besides, the EU has already held consultations with China (which got a tariff raise last month) about how to adapt to the situation. Both have previously used response strategies aimed at Trump's support bases. They'll do it without hesitation.

                                And if Trump is going to enact "far larger" tariffs against every big trade partner, he'll knock the US economy into a recession.

                                  From the guy who complains about having to pay for stuff, pretending it's a subsidy.

                                  Sure, we can reciprocate. Further, the more tariffs he puts on, the more likely we all are to remove trade restrictions on other partners.

                                  Guy responsible for USMCA doesn't like USMCA.

                                    he's gotta get his "deal" or whatever the fuck this is about well before the midterms when he losses his majority.

                                    ideally you can get some non-senile democrat leadership in place before then.. but i guess not. rot is deep.

                                          I really don't think that's how it works. Like no one has ever sold their house below market to such an extent that one would run to buy it. That makes no sense. If you lose your house, it goes to the bank.
