JUST IN: China imposes 34% tariffs on imports of US goods in retaliation
Stock market crashing and 401k’s getting decimated. So make America great again comes after the self inflicted destruction of it. Now I get it.
So it begins 💪👊
Corporate media sane washing because tariffs are probably going into reconciliation so the poor and middle class can pay for those juicy corporate tax breaks.
In this economy?!????
Meanwhile as American start to suffer. Trump charges 3.5MM to golf every week.
Literally Trump is the dumbest person to ever run the country and those that voted for this. There is be no US export market except maybe Russia.
I’m sure Jake Tapper thinks that Trump is still a genius
Next up the EU. EU to impose tariffs on the US and freeze all investment in the US. We now have a full on Global Trade War.
Those fucking penguins added a 50% tariff on bigotry and hatred. That’s Iowa’s #1 export! I hate birds.
Revolting! At what point does the worst political malfeasance that culminates in needless massive pain + pushing allies toward China, giving the next world order to China and Russia and their petty authoritarian allies warrant a sober slap-back??? America needs to revolt agains Trumpism.
China calls, is President Trump going to fold? 🤔
Dayyyyyum!! 😳😳
Who can blame them?
Now we can get child labor in FL to start sewing our shirts for Amazon!
Lucky u!
Yes! And you can pay the kids Chinese wages!
Does Trump have to increase the tariff rate on China now because the 34% was calculated on the current tariffs or will Trump have to admit that the calculation was just based on the trade deficit and not on imposed tariffs by the countries?
The AI they used that did that mess ll have to answer for them 🤷🏾♂️
Don't but cheap China goods. They won't last and they contribute the most to negative climate change
Trumpster did u guys good. And I am not talking about the rest of the world.
Indicative of the clown show that is this administration.
Love you 🇨🇳
* The dead-letter-literal-interpretation of the Bible, white nationalists, evangelical Christian fundamentalists elected the Antichrist that they have been warning about for years, their lord and savior Donald Trump. The Christian fundamentalists elected the anti-Christ President. *
i mean, who could have seen this coming? some much #winning
What makes me worry is that China, Japan, and South Korea have become allies.
This doesn’t make sense. According to Trump China are charging 67% tariffs on US. US retaliated with 34%. Now China has retaliated with 34%. What’s happened to the 67%? Is Trump talking shit again!!!
Correct. China doesn’t charge that. The calculation these simpletons used is based on trade deficits, not tariffs charged on 🇺🇸 products
Yes. The answer to the question "Is Trump talking shit again" is always yes.
That’s gonna sting. Wonder how much of that cost ends up passed on to us.Just wondering 🤔
Tit for Tariffs continue
Good
So, it's now become a race to see which country can make their citizens pay the most in taxes, first. The FOF can really fuck things up for everyone.
Most countries citizens Will just leave items aside As unnecessary . The import orders will stop As American items pile up
Hopefully people can’t afford to buy those stupid hats and flags anymore.
🤡
The average American, especially MAGA folks—is gonna feel the heat in this tariff war. China isn’t the one in trouble here; they’ve got the leverage. The U.S. can’t handle unrest, China’s built for it. Guess who blinks first.
#lolX
GOOD FOR CHINA. REMOVE TRUMP. APRIL 5 IS THE DAY WE RISE UP AND MARCH. HECK, EVEN IN EUROPE THE ARE RISING UP. AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT CHINA. HEARING FROM FRIENDS THERE THEY ARE MARCHING AGAINST CHINA'S CONNECTION TO THE US. MAYBE THE US WILL NOW BE "TAKE-OUT".
Esse velho gaga é responsável direto por essa treta mas vocês não admitem kkkk
Can’t be! After Scott Bessent specifically said not to respond in kind? bsky.app/profile/carl...
Anyway the information makes sense. We, people from the foreign countries, should not play that trade war game to avoid an global military conflict. This time it's mister Trump who is gambling with the third World War.
China exports a lot of medicines to the US this tariff war is going to hurt people more than they realize.
China will source their own and make it in China. We are outsourcing everything
What do you guys sell to China?
Soybeans,ag machinery, pharmaceuticals, aircraft. Soybeans is the biggest
Teslas
I think they have better options
I don’t disagree at all, but that was Tesla biggest market after the US. So it only adds to the toxicity and bad management
Soybeans, petroleum, machinery etc.
Hmm, who didn’t see that coming? It was on my bingo card. Who is next - EU countries, the rest of Asia?
Market is going to crash
Literally
Make China and Rússia great again !
I’m normally not a huge fan of the Chinese government (or any government really) but hell yeah this is badass!
It’s going to be tough for companies like Boeing employing 170.000 people mostly in the US with China as their biggest export market - I luckily don’t live in the US but I hope that 5 April everyone with its hearth in the right place will protest and make it the real Liberation Day

Hello,
Maybe we can buy less goods made by Chinese slaves.

The $6 trillion Trump-Tariff-Taxes are arbitrary and inflationary but not “reciprocal.” Also, where is my $1 million DOGE rebate check from the 50% Pentagon cuts after ending the wars in Ukraine and Palestine? www.cnbc.com/2025/02/13/d...
Now Scott Jennings is doubting Trump policies pinning it solely on Trump. Trump is not in this alone. The entire Republican Party is responsible. And if you didn’t vote in the last election it’s your fault. This is what apathy brings you.
Well......
Big importers, wanting Chinese goods can organise to purchase them via Russia, which is then tariff free. This will help the Russian economy and make life even harder for Ukraine (which has been hit with tariffs). Maybe there is some benefit if your POTUS turns out to be a Russian agent?
New video has emerged of Trump supporters reacting to Trump’s policies since taking office.
The real focus here should be on the rare earth elements that China is now restricting the sale of Ask yourselves why they are essential to defense/electronics Ask yourselves why Trump was trying to push Zelenskyy into a deal on them As yourselves why Trump wants to seize Greenland Join the dots
Are we seeing the beginning of the end of America’s influence in the world?
Hilarious to see people hype up one dictator and downplay another. So hypocritical. The calls to see our country fail from the inside right now are unfathomable. Go BRICS? Ya'll must be truly insane. Also, I thought tariffs hurt the country that is implementing them? Won't this hurt China?
Don't hate the player.
Amazing how Americans are ignorant about this No one is running to manufacture stuff in America and ship them to china . Unless they're defined by brand name no one in china is even thinking about American products
Support americans through a bypass of Trump's tariffs on the DEfi economy!
Maybe it's only an mechanical commercial correction to refund the coast of Trump's tariffs that hurt americans more than the other countries. This is too bad because american people have nothing to do with policy of Trump administration. Don't worry people from the world will soon understand it.
How was he elected? Did he draw the longest straw? Did he win a lottery?
The US election system is indirect. People vote big electors but big electors can vote differnetly from people's willing. That's how mister Trump won against Hillary Clinton in the past. Mister Putin and mister Trump also played americans with false promises and conspiracy theories on tik tok.
"Nothing to do"? How come? Trump did not coup the US, he was elected. And he did say he was going for tariffs.
Yes you are right Trump was elected but maybe it's a consequence of the american election system which is indirect. That's how mister Trump won against Hillary Clinton in the past. Someone try to seed hate between people in the world and sometimes people are not represented by their government.
You can't blame ppl from countries who have been historically exploited, couped and intervened by the US to feel pity. Latin America, for example, is very happy seing the US melting down. Pretty sure Africa is also very satisfied. The US citizens must do their homework and wipe their own mess.
You are absolutely right. China acts right and i don't have any right to blame. I was born in a country living under Russian hegemony in the past (Ukraine). I know what you want to say.
How come they don’t halt trading like they do when we’re making money on a stock??
Ouch
#TeamChina
Kamala was right again.
Let the games begin
🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #IamCanadian 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 Living above the meth lab dumpster 🔥. The short term pain will be a US recession which could trigger a world wide one. The US is showing its true nature — a bully.
😎
What would hurt the US more is if they just closed US companies factories in China.
I hope China starts to buy even more from Brazil. Go BRICS! 😂
American Citizens, NOW is the time to STOP Trump & Elon from the continuous corruption, chaos, and madness—20 Elections in April. Visit Ballotpedia.org and your local government offices to see if you can offer your services as a volunteer. VOTE BLUE in all elections. ballotpedia.org/Elections_ca...
The Trump admin threatened any country that retaliates against the tariffs with increasing even more the taxes. They behave like a mafia…now we will see how they react to that and to any other countries’ retaliatory measures
Gotta react with double. We don’t buy much from China, anyway.
What do we export to China? We import $500+ bil from them and export $150 bil to them. Well feel some pain for sure, but they lose this battle every time.
I don’t think so .. they have discipline we do not
Normally I'd agree with you but Trump has been impeached 2x, indicted multiple times, convicted on garbage charges and had 2 assassination attempts against him and he's not running for re-election. He's governing like a man with no fucks left to give. He's not backing down.
I agree about garbage charges… altho they were real! He should have been convicted regarding stealing documents that were not his and refusing to cooperate with us! I agree about the first attempt on his life the second you hardly hear anything about it!! I am convinced he hasno boundaries! No soul
He has no boundaries, he does have a soul such as it is. No President has ever been charged w/ document theft when out of office, Biden had plenty of stuff in his garage in Delaware. Dems miscalculated badly charging him, like Repubs did impeaching Clinton. People have moved on, same w/J6.
Do your job CNN. Make it make sense. Why would he do this without the goal of destroying America.

TRUMP ANNOUNCES RETALIATORY MEASURES Felon47 says he will no longer order Kung Pao Chicken as a midnight snack.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🥤🍿
Now the orange fascist leader must react against the red fascist leader! Or will he possibly “tuck his tail” in?! I'm making more popcorn for the coming days and weeks!
Question for Americans, what kind of parents teach their child to lie? What will the Liar’s children think about them? www.huffpost.com/entry/karoli...
Well done. Hurting America's farmers, but remember the orange stain does not care

It is a war that the United States cannot win. The moment when the US could stop China has long passed. Every country will survive without the US, but the US cannot survive without the world. Boycott American products! Buy China! Buy the world! Go BRICS 💪
US tried to stop China multiple times and always failed (even achieved the opposite) .. Huawei today is basically stronger than apple. Korean War, Vietnam War, Taiwan Strait Crisis, Sino-Indian War .. USA tried everything.
Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on your leanings, China is stopping herself because an autocratic command economy makes terrible decisions. To wit, RT.
That's it! Keep underestimating China based on your prejudices, while being blind to the decay of your bankrupt society! The world thanks you!
America and the world will soon discover Trump’s Golden Age is 1200 B.C. This is what happens when you let the crazies loose. George Romero's "The Crazies" (1973).
Yeah, right 😂
Yeah... we can see that 😂
Well seems like former democracies can do even worse decisions...
A big win for all other countries that want to export to China. USA has just left the game.
Uhhh, based? For the first time ever China does something cool. I'll enjoy the MAGA-tears. Hope they all suffer greatly, they deserve it.
This came out of left field. What did we do to deserve this disrespect? (she says sarcastically)
Trump depression & trump inflation will be coming to a store near you!

but still, China's policy looks like a lesser evil than the White House's policy.
Good.... EU, UK, Canada & Japan are next...
Obviously no need for extra tariffs on U.S. cars. Won’t buy them anyway. More than enough with Elons China-production.
Jeez, cult members are going to have to pay a lot more for their MAGA hats and T-shirts!
I'm rooting for China in this war
Now that is a reciprocal tariff
DO YOUR PEOPLE AT CNN GET HEADACHES RINGING IN THEIR EARS ANXIOUS DEPRESSED QUEASY STOMACH NO REASON?
É a tropa do BRICS
How's El Presidente doing on the course today? Boy I sure hope he wins his tournament this weekend.
well thats it for tesla
No surprise
Looks like the trade war just escalated! It's always fascinating to see how interconnected global economies are. Wonder how this will affect prices and consumer choices on both sides.
Anyone surprised by this doesn't understand Tariffs.
Well done china
😭😭😭
