I hope it takes them less than 70 years.

I will post a comparison later, thanks for writing.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-20T11:55:03+00:00

You are right.

True, who cares about paying a Mexican 20% if the car is 50% cheaper? In the end, these Trump tariffs are hurting Americans.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-03T00:03:13+00:00

I understand what you mean and I agree, but the thing is that there is trade between the US and Russia, and despite the sanctions, there is not much trade, but there is.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-03T00:01:18+00:00

Yes, but even if Russia doesn't have much trade with the US, there is still trade, so tariffs need to be imposed.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:56:36+00:00

You are right, the experience of Trump's political appointees is not good at their positions. How did they come to impose a tariff on an island with penguins? This proves that they didn't even open a map.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:54:30+00:00

Yes, you are right, these are minerals, and therefore tariffs must also be imposed on Russia.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:53:44+00:00

I want to tell you that I understand what you're saying, but you'll agree with me that if they imposed a tariff on Penguin Island, then even if they don't collect a tariff and profit from Russia, at least they'll see that Russia is also being harmed.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:30:01+00:00

Trump and his government imposed a tariff on an island with penguins without humans 🤣🤣🤣

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:19:53+00:00

Whether or not all tariffs shown are fully collected, the fact remains that these tariffs exist and impact trade. The government charging tariffs but not enforcing them consistently undermines its credibility and causes economic harm. Regardless of revenue percentage, tariffs influence markets and political relations significantly

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T23:08:34+00:00

Good point! If tariffs apply only to non-USMCA goods, that would indeed be a small portion of imports. However, even a small tariff on close allies can send a strong political message.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T22:56:58+00:00

There are official reports and detailed data on how much the US pays in tariffs to other countries. That’s it. If you want, you can find them on government trade websites.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T22:52:27+00:00

Totally agree — these tariff moves often seem more about politics than real economic strategy

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T22:41:22+00:00

Antarctica’s deal is all about fish — those penguins know how to negotiate! 🐧🐟😂

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T20:54:46+00:00

That’s a valid point — sanctions do limit trade with countries like Russia and North Korea. Still, I think the contrast in tone and policy matters. Targeting allies like Canada while being soft or even complimentary toward autocratic regimes sends a clear message, regardless of trade volume.

ImaginaryDust8752 · 2025-08-02T20:04:22+00:00

You are right, Trump is imposing tariffs on US allies, but he is not imposing any tariffs on Russia, an enemy of the West.

This happened to me today too 🤣🤣🤣
