View submission: Canada's Trudeau announces counter tariffs
The US has the highest GDP in the world. And Trump wants to wield it like a sword. He went at China last time and learned that he can't bully the second highest GDP. He thought if he could then he could easily bully the world.
This time he will start small and build up. Once he has all other countries in line he will go hard on China and the European Union.
He will fail... but gosh darnit you gotta love watching a man who just won't learn and keeps touching the electric fence.
Yes lots of jobs will be lost. Yes the average American will be worse off. But I have never seen a right wing politician honestly care about those things. And the wealthy will use this time to buy up all the assets as the economy fails.
There's nothing here!
