WPost's CHART showing Trump's current tariffs tax by country

CHART

This BlueSky comment says it best….

"Average effective rate" is pure garbage. So much comes from China, the lion's share of tariffs we'll pay will be the Chinese rate. Fucking Bezos/WaPo gaslighting us on Trump's vengeful destruction of the economy and how it will devastate consumers.

seem to be coming from another country to circumvent the tariffs. Meanwhile continue to dump treasuries as they make deals with their European counterparts. Destroy America, and let the Felon cry foul.

Maybe he thinks he can sue China and the EU while he launches the White House store for crypto and other TSF products. He will support the people by supporting for profit prisons and workhouses ala Scrooge. SCOTUS will be fine with that.

Will we make it to midterms? Will the selfie population wake up? And if they do will that be the cue to declare martial law?

Will we be able to impeach the guy in January ‘27? And 60 votes in the Senate? Bets? 1984 George Orwell in 2025 dystopian style. Am I being too negative or not negative enough. How much destruction will it take?
