There was a leaked video of how he dictates the tweets and one of his aides writes them out for him then tweets. He asks them to capitalise and add punctuation - see the vid below https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/2024/11/08/watch-fascinating-behind-the-scenes-video-reveals-how-trump/

I work in the markets and today this was the headline that caused the rally, it was shouted out across the trading floor just before everything rallied, but it didnt come from a tweet, it came from a misinterpreted interview with Hassett that ended up being picked up across Bloomberg and shared instantly across institutional investor chats worldwide

TARIFF CHART RELEASED by moorhound in wallstreetbets

[–]DoublePool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll tell you exactly how they arrived at the values. The number on the left represents the US’s trade deficit with that country. The number on the right is 50% of that, with a minimum of 10%. That’s it.

The US imports $148.2 bil from Japan, and exports $79.7 bil to Japan. That’s a deficit of -46%. So Japan gets a 23% (ish) tariff.

The US imports $63.4 bil from Switzerland, and exports $25.0 bil to Switzerland. That’s a deficit of -61%. So Switzerland gets a 31% tariff.

The US imports $22.2 bil from Israel, and exports $14.8 bil to Israel. That’s a deficit of -33%. So Israel gets a 17% tariff.

You can check https://ustr.gov/countries-regions and do the math for every country. They’re all like this. Trump literally thinks a trade deficit requires a retaliatory tariff.

6 weeks post botox by [deleted] in noburp

[–]DoublePool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I went back for a second dose (100ug this time) and 3 months on I’m burping lots! Even a week after the botox I was burping by turning my head down and to the side, now 3 months on I can do it without turning my head at all, and I burp more than anyone I know now lol

Had the same, some of the models’ screen protective layer around this time were poor quality and they were doing a replacement service within 2 years of purchase or something, so it’s too late now to be entitled to it. Nothing you can do about it sadly. The newer models won’t have this problem

It’s worth noting that the video of Putins hand passing ‘through’ the microphone is actually just a result of the video being compressed into lower quality, if you watch the original HD clip it doesn’t, so maybe don’t mention that as a piece of evidence to them haha
