Ha! You Europoors are just mad you can't afford to pay more money for everything! Once again, Trump totally owned you! God Bless America!

Look at your inflation. It doensn't mean that the US won. It means our countries will fail together.
It's obvious sarcasm
I thought it was obvious, but I guess I should have added the old /s

Because the POTUS doesn't post on Lemmy.

Tariffs are not merely an internal issue though. Sure they hurt the consumers the most, but they still are a damage of the people trying to sell the items too. Those tariffs do result in people buying less that's why they exist in the first place.

Funny thing: probably it sucks for Americans too.
No, it only sucks for the vast majority of them. If you produce locally, from local materials, you're golden! I mean, its 2025 and nobody does that anymore. But there might be a few of them left.

With this show of cowardice and spinelessness the project European Union is dead to me.

Don't be so dramatic.
JFC, who let the MAGA American into feddit.org?
This is what happens when a guy who was, according to his professor "the dumbest goddamn student I ever had" is made president.
He keeps trying to shove the triangle into the square hole while exclaiming, "it's a perfect fit".
Tariffs alone will never bring back manufacturing to the US. Those jobs are gone thanks to globalism, and why would you need them back when you could instead invest in a more service-oriented economy and with more highly specialised (and valuable) tertiary industry jobs. All tariffs do in this situation is tax everyone and drive inflation rapidly - both at a time when people are at historically high levels of personal debt.

You forget the rise of the robots. No need for stupid meatbags to assemble stuff when a metalskin can ~~hallucinate~~ do it perfectly every time

Yes he's dumb, but on the topic of tariffs he knows it will not bring blue collar jobs back to the US_, look at his own merch or the phone he is selling, all made in China. Secondly, he didn't write Project 2025, there are smarter people than Trump pulling the strings, there is ulterior motive to push for these tariffs. I personally don't really know what, other than wrecking the economy or maybe purposefully devaluating the dollar.
