  • Import tariffs

    From Joseph Pereira@1:124/5016 to All on Wed Sep 10 06:20:34 2025

    The import tariffs may be declared illegal permanently, simply because Trump lacked the justification to impose them.

    The US job figures are dismal. Who should Trump fire now?

    And China announced that exports to the US fell by 33% in August. Yet they claim to have achieved 4% growth in total exports. If that's true, then they routed their exports to the US through other countries.

    Until they're brought before the supreme court. The same court that
    judged that you can't use race to influence admission to university but
    you *can* use race to detain people.

    It's all fake news!

    Or other countries are taking up the slack?

    Trump has adjusted his strategy regarding import tariffs. He's now focusing on market sectors and less on countries. For example, he now wants to impose tariffs on medicines (100%), home appliances, kitchens and bathrooms (30%), and trucks (25%). His remark that the import tariffs on kitchens are a matter of national security is noteworthy. Has he ever cut himself on an Ikea knife?
