Does this mean every time I buy something from a shop, I am the victim of a trade imbalance?

More proof of his own doing to be added to the volumes of illiterate stupidity that will be his legacy. Generations to follow will find it hard to believe.

And I bet it’s so bad they can’t even translate it into Japanese.

An intern?

someone who never made it past 7th grade English without daddy paying the teachers to give him As. He really has no idea how to use a comma.

Is there a lawyer in the house that also understands how a Monkey's Paw works? How bad would it be, in the grand scheme of things, if in the constitution it simply stated: "Trade deficits cannot be used as a reason to do, or not do something."? Asking for a friend who might have a Monkey's Paw...

My theory is that someone drafted it like this to mock Trump and it was sent out accidentally. Or maybe even on purpose.

Someone completely uneducated, with English as a second language, who did not grow up here.

No kidding, the grammar is atrocious! Between that and the verbal idiocy he must have done it himself! 🤣

It read like something trump dictates to his trade guy with input from several other people in the room. He’s influenced by the last person he talks to.

The Shite House

Notice how, if Japan comes back with their tariffs, he will double the badness of tariffs He wants a punishment-system that earns revenue No care for Americans paying for it - including the small distributors or product re-workers

"Thank you for your attention to this matter".

Not a Nigerian Prince.

Can we all admit the world is laughing at us….🙄they can’t believe we were stupid enough to do this again.

These people don't care about anything except cash in their pockets. Another part of the grift.

It sure sounds like the Orange one.

🌮

Pure buffoonery from an intellectual zero; could have been written by any number of people in the Executive Branch.

Orange Potato all by himself

I think they have child labor working in the White House or AI has really messed up on this letter.

This is fucking ridiculous.

This letter is a disgrace to the office of the President of the United States of America 💙🇺🇸 its pathetic

He seems to have the Arrested Development of a seventh grader and I imagine the seventh grader would come up with something like this.

Shouldn’t have capitalized arrested development. Siri did it 🤨🤣

Sounds like Trump to me.

It’s Taco time!

There is speculation that Stephen Miller was upset about Elon taking and using his wife, and Miller decided he'd try ketamine, but got into a bad batch Hence, the letter

My response to this letter? Well, this might be the first time in my 62 years that I have used the word, “cringe”…

Some who writes poorly.

I smell the stench of middle-school Goebbels, Stephen Miller, who is as ignorant as he is hateful. But maybe the monstrous Russell Vought? It's just so fucking embarrassing that we have these uneducated flaming morons representing our country.

If I was grading this as an assignment in school, I think it would get a D- for improper use of capitalization, poor sentence structure and overall lack of focus and comprehensive grammar.

D- ??? Further evidence of grade inflation ! 😆😀😀

I know…as a retired teacher I was so triggered by this. Gawd, I want to take a red pen to it!

Japan should respond with a politically correct FU. Trump's ego is beyond belief. He needs to step back from all this tariff crap. TACO.

Sounds like the Idiot King himself.

It must have killed him that he ran out of room to include his famous sign off…”Thank you for your attention to this matter!”.

I'm surprised it's not written in Sharpie,... or crayon

AI?

Is AI this ignorant? Not on spelling, grammar and sentence structure but the entire concept of how tariffs work. Overall stupidity level seems Trumpian.

I've graded better form letters from 6th graders

I know who it sounds like 🍊
