Love the sentiment, but it's based on the assumption that tariffs aren't just self harm on a national scale

Hear, hear.

Countries need to shut down all necessary trade with the US. Cut them off at the knees. Want to tariff copper 50%, too bad so sad, no copper for you. Copper is needed for so much, so let them figure out how to manufacture stuff without it.

As a U.S. citizen who does not support Trump, we hoped the world would do this to Trump & his government. In Arizona, most of our copper deposits are owned by foreign companies, some are Canadian.

And why should Canadian companies be paying Trump supporters? Lay them off & send them into the streets. They deserve nothing from Canada after their remarks about invading Canada.

A gigantic asshole, the likes of which has never been seen before. A hell of a lot of people are saying that.

🎯👏

Or they could just encourage boycotts rather than raise taxes on their own people with the hope the US would be hurt *too*.

Great comment! The rest of the world needs to work harder and faster to trade around the US. For fuck sakes - which country really needs to be threatened every 5 minutes over the Demented Dictator's hissy fit of the day.

That's exactly what's happening. It's so bad that he had to post tariff form letters on social media addressed to individual countries. The phones AREN'T ringing off the hook.

I think he said at one point he had made deals with 200 countries lol. This tariff mess is just an never-ending tantrum and I think the rest of the world is really tired of it at this point.

As a U.S. citizen who does not support Trump, we had hoped that the world would band together against Trump & his government.

I think they are but changing up the whole world order & trading around the US take times. Citizens of lots of other countries have been boycotting US travel & products. It is easier for individuals to do that. Canada has been working as quickly as possible to diversify trade.

I am getting a real sense that the rest of the world is over the shock of Trump being re-elected & are now are fed up with his behaviour. I don't think anyone cried that he left the G7 early. 90 deals in 90 days? 1 deal. The phones weren't ringing off the hook and you know TACO.

He warned countries not to join BRICs they did anyhow. Countries are signing defense pacts leaving out the US. There are lots of things going on you just don't hear about them everyday. Stuff is happening just maybe not as fast as everyone would like. Sorry for the long rant. Crazy times.

Love it!!

Exactly 💯

“US Asshole tax”! Very appropriate! Ultimately the rest of the world should ignore your horrible President though & not punish its own citizens with more taxes! I look fwd to China & Japan selling off US bonds & watching these MAGA arse-clowns backdown yet again. Rinse, repeat
