Japan demands exemption from U.S. auto tariffs

Fuck it. Just ban the import of American made cars.
There are none (worth speaking about)

Tariff us back!
Well... their threat is more start selling off their US treasurey bonds that are worth more more than a trillion dollars and could potentially tank the value of the dollar itself if sold off on mass...

Please do it. Our people need to learn to be less selfish and stupid.

The thought of Japan buying American cars is hilarious. American car companies only care about making oversized trucks and SUVs now. Even in America, if you buy a sedan you are most likely getting an import. In the most popular 25 sedan models in America according Kelly Blue Book, the top 5 are all Japanese and there are only 3 from American brands.

Please. I want to buy a new car soon and it's almost certainly going to be Japanese.
I too enjoy cars that don't fall apart at 100,000 miles

I, as a consumer in the US would like to not have to pay so much money for car parts. You know what I mean? Mr Orange goo, I have a car, it needs parts from time to time and I would like to just purchase the parts and not pay a tariff. Does that work?
Let me explain where I'm coming from. Like imagine I have $8 dollars and I see a part at a store that comes out to a total of 8 dollars. I would like to pay $8 dollars and not $9 dollars. Because 9 is higher than 8. See where I'm going?

He’s going to have to run this by Putin

It’s because they rely on US military support.
for what?

for what?
As a deterrence against North Korea and also China. NK sees Japan as an enemy because Japan was a colonizer of the peninsula and Japan is allied with South Korea. And China has a territorial dispute with Japan and Japan is an ally of Taiwan.
Japan doesn’t have nukes, aircraft carriers or even bombers. While China has all of that and North Korea is building a nuclear arsenal. Japan’s own laws prevent them from building a full military force. They have what they call a Defense Force. Those laws were created when they were occupied by the US.
So they rely on the US for nuclear deterrence and support in case they do get attacked.
