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

Russia imports $17 billions from USA. So we don’t have a trade deficit with Russia.
He’s definitely a Russian troll, but I’m not sure this is the data point to prove it.
The US consistently runs a trade deficit with Russia.

The US has a trade surplus with the UK, but still applied a 10% tariff to them.

The US has been sanctioning Russia for the better part of the last decade. We aren't tariffing them because we aren't trading with them.
We also aren't tariffing Venezuela, Cuba, or North Korea, for the same reasons.
Maybe, but apparently we're tariffing multiple uninhabited islands. It would seem that active trade is not a perquisite for tariffs these days. can't be having people move out there and not getting tariffed in the future.
I hope he puts tariffs on Mars next. Maybe after he falls out with musk.

You can view this one of two ways, possibly both:
- Krasnov
- Trump apparently was doing these tariffs based on trade deficits (Which is stupid on its own, if your dentist doesn't buy the widgets you sell, that's not a tariff.), if Russia wasn't running one, then there you go.
To rebuke 2 I present the following- https://ustr.gov/countries-regions/europe-middle-east/russia-and-eurasia/russia
U.S. total goods trade with Russia were an estimated $3.5 billion in 2024. U.S. goods exports to Russia in 2024 were $526.1 million, down 12.3 percent ($73.5 million) from 2023. U.S. goods imports from Russia totaled $3.0 billion in 2024, down 34.2 percent ($1.6 billion) from 2023. The U.S. goods trade deficit with Russia was $2.5 billion in 2024, a 37.5 percent decrease ($1.5 billion) over 2023.
Based on that math, with the CNN article I linked for the formula we get - (2,500,000,000 / 3,000,000,000) * 1/2 = 0.416666...
So Russia should have a 41% tariff.

3 billion is nothing.
I wonder how much the EU imports.
3 billion is nothing.
Cool, can I borrow $3 billion?
Trump put tariffs on uninhibited islands, which is literally $0 in trade.

Im going to need some serious evidence that the sitting US president is not a natural born citizen and therefore is not actually the president.

So is that trading economics website just BS, then?

Russia remains a key supplier of resources critical to U.S. industry (titanium, palladium, uranium). While technically replaceable, developing alternative sources would take years. This makes the current moment less than ideal for imposing higher tariffs on Russia, particularly when the priority is to reindustrialize the U.S.

The real key resource that Russia holds has to be a video of Trump on Epsteins Island.

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.
The only possibility of me agreeing with this old fuck is him stepping down as President... But then we would have to deal with a Vance Presidency and I'm not sure that would be better

They are eating the dogs and now they are tariffing the penguins.

As much as I despise Obama for vastly expanding our extrajudicial drone strike policy..... All things put into perspective, yeah he was pretty decent.
