Russia Not on US Tariff List Despite Broad Global Reach | Sweden Herald

Lmao, what? Why even?
Well, even then, these islands are not significant geopolitical actors. And tarrifs will certinly not hurt the Russian economy, and I doubt they are going to help the US in terms of geopolitics.

As well as it should not trust the U.S. the same again. While i absolutely despise the orange turd he has shown what has been true before: The west has been too reliant on the U.S. ,which both sides enjoyed while it lastet, as the U.S. called the shots, the rest of the west followed and we all benefitted (often on the backs of the global south ofc).
No more. Maybe some good will come out of it (strong hopium, i know) -
Or never knew them to begin with

Sure thing, let's just go to the unredacted Mueller Rep- AW GODDAMMIT
-
Tarrifs on Russia will be pointless
Nope!
-
Your great argument has changed my mind. I now see that I was wrong. Thank you.
-
Lmao, what? Why even?
Because Trump is a moron surrounded by a team of idiots.
Well, even then, these islands are not significant geopolitical actors.
And yet they have tarrifs.
And tarrifs will certinly not hurt the Russian economy, and I doubt they are going to help the US in terms of geopolitics.
The same can be said if many of the other tariffs Trump has imposed. Which is why Russia's exception is notable.
-
You missed my point. Islands are irrelevant. Russia isn't.
-
Yes exactly. Yet the islands were included but Russia wasn't. So the situation isn't that Russia has no trade and tariffs are useless against it, but that Russia was specifically singled out so they wouldn't receive tariffs.
Just take the loss, jfc.

I try to keep a sense of perspective, every president I disagree with seems to be the worst president ever at the time.
I really want to say Bush's useless Trillion dollar wars are worse than this.
But it's close and we have 3.5 more years of this.
-
Trump followed a consistent, rigid math: Whatever the trade deficit, then that's the tariff applied... except for Russia. Russia is #23 on our list of trade partners. Following the math they should have a hefty tariff applied, but they don't. It's the only exception.

Obama was pretty decent no? He managed to at least speak normally.
-
The longest.
-
Uh? Of course he isn't. Why would he put tariffs on his boss? That makes no sense.

I’m honestly not sure how that would apply to infant adoptions. It’s my understanding that if the adoption occurs early enough, the adoptive parents will be listed on the birth certificate. It certainly feels like a child adopted in infancy by citizens should be just as eligible for the presidency as a child naturally born to citizens, but I’d also have a hard time drawing a line age-wise after which that would no longer apply and I do see a reason to bar children adopted at 17 from the presidency. My niece was adopted at three years old and she does remember her biological mother, but she’s absolutely my sister and brother in law’s daughter, in terms of her personality, culture, and values. That’s only a data point of one and I’d like more, but I don’t know how easy that would be to track for other adopted children.
-
That’s an absurdly low bar.
-
As much as I despise Obama for vastly expanding our extrajudicial drone strike policy..... All things put into perspective, yeah he was pretty decent.
-
I wonder why

I was fine with like 80% of Obama and like 60% of Clinton's actual policies while enjoying the economy that I don't credit him for. But then W Bush was like a 10% and Trump 1 maybe 10% (Warp Speed, passing the vast majority of Covid stimulus, ironically all the stuff he's against now) and I'm batting zero so far on Trump 2 but I assume at some point he'll do something I agree with.
