Russia Not on US Tariff List Despite Broad Global Reach | Sweden Herald
-
I find it funny than instead of at least imposing 10% tariff by default on Russia and selectively exempt critical resources. Russian wasn't listed at all.
Even an unoccupied island got 10% tariff by default.

Systems that have voting mechanisms result in hive minds. It's an inevitable result.
1st someone is much more likely to vote something up or down depending on how positive / negative it is. So it snowballs sort of like compounding interest
2nd the simplest most common denominator takes bubble to the top. Precisely because more people can understand and therefore vote.
It's why you'll always see some screenshot of Twitter much higher than a long in depth article. Even though the article has infinitely more value.

Yes but look at the people who becomes US presidents. The bar needs to be low or none of them can reach it.
-
Now that is a lie. He only likes himself and Ivanka.

Look at section 3(a) of the executive order linked here, at the portion discussing "column 2":
-
Yeah, it's hard to put a tariff on a country that you have already sanctioned and don't trade with at all. But that fact doesn't play well here.
-
don't read the news because it might get weird for you

The US has 3.5 billion in trade with Russia. The tariffs include Iran; Venezuela, etc... they also slapped them on countries which we have a trade surplus with.
It's also looking like they used chatgpt to write the list but then specifically omitted five countries. Russia, north korea,Korea, Cuba, Belarus. Russia and its fine closest allies. How can anyone see this and not think the Kremlin does t own the Epstein tapes
-
That was also the official argument from Karoline Leavitt, spokesperson of the White House, although last years trading volume between Russia and the US still was about 3.5 billion USD (roughly three times of what Ukraine - US traded).
The question whether tariffs for Russia makes sense or not is rendered meaningless given the fact that the whole tariff plan is just wild (super small countries with a mimiscule part of trading volume still got heavily sanctioned etc).
You are right that we should not spread hysteria, but we should still question statements coming from government officials.

they released the JFK tapes! several times!
honestly i remain skeptical any "kompromat" on trump exists. or any Epstein documents remain that matter. we've all seen it
-
I was skeptical up until the tariffs. Now it's obvious they've got blackmail.
Alao an interview with epstein was leaked last year where he mentioned trump having sex on his plane. But in 2017 that clip was suppressed for some reason.
We know trump flew on that plane many times and that it was rigged with secret cameras
-
I doubt it's a blackmail thing, because at this point, not one of Trump's supporters would give a damn if it was clearly proven that Trump personally took CP pictures.
I think Putin just whispers sweet nothings into Trump's ear and controls him that way.
-
i wouldn't say trump wasn't a super gross Epstein buddy, we already know that.
"rigged with secret cameras", so what. where is it now.
