Mainstream Media Is NOT COVERING THIS: Cambodia/Vietnam Leaders COOPERATE To Lift "Liberty" Tariffs

Scroll down for sources

Since FRIDAY: Vietnam + Cambodia stated full cooperation with USA. Therefore, USA should NOT enforce their tariffs shown on the "Liberation Day" chart

Taiwan has basically signaled the same thing but has not formally announced it.

Crazy - CNN and Fox and other main stream media are not reporting any of those updates. There is a paywalled article on Bloomberg about Vietnam and Nike went up.

I had to search the news sites of those countries. I put this on several other r/ and they were deleted.

Feels weird, almost like a conspiracy to ensure the situation feels way worse that it really is...plus no shortage of people pooh -poohing and whataboutisms and "makes no difference", "Trump evil/bad/stupid" rebuttals. This is NOT political, this is real NEWS that does affect the situation.

I would like to inform Your Honorable President (Trump) .... Cambodia is committed to promote U.S. based product imports with an immediate reduction of 19 product categories from our maximum 35% tariff bound rate to 5% applied tariff rate.

The US has the world's largest economy for a reason. Other countries do not want their endless money supply to dry up.

So youre saying it was never about reviving american manufacturing or bringing in tax revenue?

If it knocks down barriers put up in other countries then it still helps American manufacturing be more competitive and grow.
