Donald Trump on Wednesday said any country supplying Iran with military weapons will face immediate 50% tariffs with no exemptions, announcing the duty in a social media post one day after agreeing to a two-week ceasefire with Tehran.
It’s like a reflexive tic he has, upset=tarrif time, no understanding of the ramifications required.
He literally doesn’t understand anything unless it’s transactional.
(Which is not to say that he does understand it if it is, mind you.)
So, Russia?
First he removed the sanctions on Russian oil to address high gas prices, then he fucks Americans by letting them pay tarrifs on that oil and increase gas prices even more.
Makes perfect sense… if you are Russian or their brain-dead puppet.
It also makes sense if he’s manipulating the stock market.
I wonder who sold off their oil futures yesterday afternoon and bought stocks.
Didn’t the supreme court rule he couldn’t unilaterally set tarrifs?
They said he didn’t have any justification that the ones he set before actually were necessary for national security. He’s actually got a possible justification this time, despite how nonsensical it is to use tariffs for this instead of sanctions.
The rule of law only applies to us peons.
He is claiming he will just institute them under another authority, which would take time to work through the courts. It’s a broken system.
So the US? He said he gave weapons to the protestors, or does the rule only apply starting…now, wait…now, wait…now
No foreign army supplied by the US government has ever turned those weapons against the US. 🙃
Remember the Iran-Contra-Affair? America being a big supplier of weapons to Iran? Will Donald issue tariffs against the USA?
Because the other countries supplying Iran are Russia, where there is basically no business with, and China, which is known to best Trump in the Tariff Game.
See! I TOLD you the ONLY way to stop this War that Trump started for No Reason is to have TRUMP leading Us! MORE Tariffs Daddy!
-Republicans but UNIRONICALLY!
Like, all the others got struck down, right? How does he think this will stick?
This guy just keeps saying “ill punch myself again! Dont make me do it! This time in the nuts!”
He’s punching all of us in the nuts.
He might… and give me a bit of latitude here, but… he might be an idiot. Just a hunch.
Cornered dog and whatnot
