So trump won’t tariff India?
Probably his brain is rotted and the last thing he remembers is that last thing someone told him.
Why would he? India is no really a challenge.
Yet.
All it would take is for him to have a bad interaction with someone vaguely Indian and he’ll throw down a tariff.
Yep. Remind him that Kamala Harris has half Indian ancestry and he'll be ready to colonize it right after Panama, Greenland, and Canada.
He's not going to colonize these countries. You have to be dumb to believe he's serious when he says that.
Facist bootlicker says "what"?
Dude, it might be time to start taking the fascist in office backed by the richest Nazi in the world a bit more seriously. You'd either hafta be dumb or sickeningly out of touch to think you can just sit back and assume he's joking.
I never said he's joking. He's negotiating. Some type of psychological warfare. He's pressuring countries into doing what he wants out if fear what he's going to say next. And in addition to that, he's flooding the media with so much bs that they can't keep up with his actual agenda.
Your hate makes you not think clearly. You need to start thinking in strategies and tactics. In power and economics.
He isn't as smart as you seem to think he is.
You don't have to be particularly smart to be manipulative. In fact, it's probably because he's not very smart that he finds these solutions to his goals.
Right that's why he acts purely out of spite and emotion, dismantling anything Biden did, putting his name on it, then claiming its better. He's not smart or manipulative, he's just a fool who can't take no for an answer.
He demonstrated that he is senile when he blamed the current trade agreements on the president who signed the last agreement. Trump signed the last agreement. He can't remember.
That's why he changes from tariff off to tariff on every week. He has no plan. He has lost his memory.
Eh. That seems like wishful thinking. He just blamed it on "the other guy" because his base is gullible and ill-informed.
True but he doesn't need to. It's the door in face technique
Reality check should've set in for you the first month he was in office. All of the things he's been saying that he'll do if he got elected again. He did more than a quarter of those things within the first week. We have 4 years with this asshole now and the only silver lining is the mid-terms, provided there will even be a mid-term election next year.
He has already done 32% of the things he's promised to do and that's just all within one month. Do you think he's bluffing? When he said he was going to throw tariffs on countries he feels is at fault for the problems in america, he did so. When he said he was going to fire lots of people, he did. When he said he was going to pardon everyone possible for January 6th, he did. There's still more to come, too.
And you think he's joking?
Here is a bit of logic for you. Either you believe what he says, or you don’t. If you do, then you should realize the kind of dangerous place he’s pushing US towards. If you don’t, then there is no reason he should be a president and you should not be depending him. So which is it?
Either you believe what he says, or you don’t.
That's a false dichotomy. 10% of what Trump says is true but 90% of what he says is insane, so 9% of what Trump says should legitimately concern everyone. Because we don't know which 10% is true, we have to be concerned about everything he says.
Second.
Yeah, because tariffs are only reserved to large competitors on the world stage like, check notes, Canada?
Tariffs are reserved for those who tariff US goods.
It really helps if you pay enough attention to know what’s going on.
Read project 2025, it views India as the most aggregious.
I can't tell if this is sarcasm.
Edit: it's not.
I came to the same conclusion.
You're applying logic when logic doesn't apply. Why would he tarriff Canada?
Because Canada tariffs us.
US: Imposes tariffs on Canadian goods because reasons
Canada: Retaliates by imposing tariffs on US goods
You: We are doing it because they are doing it!
What tariffs are Canada imposing on the U.S. that is not retaliatory?
India is no really a challenge.
And Canada is?
Yes. Canada and Mexico are transit countries for products coming from China. Plus, he wants to reduce Fentanyl (but I doubt this is the real reason).
Yes. Canada and Mexico are transit countries for products coming from China.
What? No.
Plus, he wants to reduce Fentanyl (but I doubt this is the real reason).
Yeah, we all doubt it: 0.2% of US fentanyl came form Canada. Zero point two percent!
Enlighten us. What is the reason?
Our Prime Minister and Foreign Minister believe Trump is using tariffs to force an annexation of Canada, just as his idol McKinley tried in 1870 (he also failed miserably)
You just answered it yourself. It failed miserably and it will obviously fail again. Nobody can seriously believe that the USA colonizes Canada. Consequently, it can't be the reason for the tarriffs.
Nobody seriously believes Project 2025 is real, or that the USA will backstab Ukraine, or that they would turn against the rest of NATO, or threaten to kick Canada out of Five eyes, or...
When will you fucking guys wake up? Your country is being taken from you and you're all standing around like "nuh-uh, no one can be stupid enough to do that!" Well I have news for you: there are people that stupid, and half of your countrymen are equally stupid.
Nobody can seriously believe that the USA colonizes Canada.
Nobody could seriously believe a US President would allow an unelected billionaire into the halls of power and society to tear it down from the inside, but here were are.
Trump has a game going here where he alienates and punishes our allies, hands control of foreign aid to China, snuggles up to Russia, invites Hungary over for dinner, stops backing Europe militarily, and fits all the War Department warning signs for what to watch for in a dictator in America. That's the part we know.
Whatever he's up to, it's not the status quo. The pressure from the tariffs can just be part of this larger game. As can the annexation threat. But that's the part we don't know.
You seem to be operating under the assumption that Trump isn't an over confident idiot with terrible ideas. Unfortunately for your narrative, he's straight-up said that he wants to annex these places. So, Trump seriously believes that the USA can colonize Canada.
trump is deeply unserious.
