10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory, whose only inhabitants are the U.S. and U.K. service members at the military base on Diego Garcia. The United States literally tariffed itself.

If they care so much about trade deficits, why don't they just stop buying so much ####?

The picture has been removed - Reddit is actively censoring all news showing where Trump got his tariff numbers, for some reason (this included the previously linked one).

Be warned there is an active effort to cover this up.

I know it's not an acceptable term anymore, but I feel like we need to make an exemption to bring the word reetard back until this administration is done, because we need the word to describe what they really are.

"Mr. President, could you please explain this formula in detail?"



That would tie him up for the rest of his term.

So if you were not previously charging the U.S. a 20% tariff on everything you were ripping yourself off?

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded.

The opening line of the article...
If you#failed#to spot America being “looted, pillaged, raped and plundered by nations near and far” or it being cruelly denied a “turn to prosper”, then congratulations: you have a firmer grip on reality than the president of the United States.
