Big dummy, he literally said he'd do this and mooks like you voted for him.
2 u/Berblarez 1d ago Did he really talk about implementing tariffs all across the board? 11 u/DrJohnnyBananas74 1d ago Yes. But in his defense, he was so stupid he thought the importing country paid the tariffs. Wait, guess that isn't in his defense. 5 u/SisterCharityAlt 1d ago No no, the importing country does pay the tariff. The exporting country does not. If you buy X in Y country, you pay the US the tariff, Y now has put reciprocal tariffs on the US on goods bought that are exported. 5 u/DrJohnnyBananas74 1d ago Yeah I meant the country sending the goods. The reality is no country pays. The consumer pays and he doesn't know that. He just stuck us all with a gigantic sales tax. 1 u/badlydrawnboyz 1d ago you can have export tariffs as well. But yeah, colloquially it defaults to import tariffs.
