It’s not what they buy from you because they can’t afford to buy anything it but it’s what Americans buy from them. Americans pay the tariffs.

True! So products from Laos will be more expensive, ultimately impacting the amount of trade. Trump claims he’s doing this because countries make it harder or more expensive to purchase products from us, but we clearly would buy more from Laos than vice versa. The trade deficit is bullshit.

What he is doing is causing inflation here and undermining a poor country’s economy. More cruelty and chaos.
