Buckle Up: What Trump Tariffs Mean For The U.S. Economy And Stock Market

The above information is but a sample of the article given here. This article is excellent, as far as giving non-biased data and information as to what Trump's tariffs are likely to do. I recommend you read the entire article.

One thing for sure, and is stated in this article and the section shown above, it that this is a "BLUNT instrument for curing those ills"

This is exactly what I have been saying all along. Trump is incompetent and makes mistakes that are very costly. Imposing tariffs on some products is not a bad idea. Imposing across the board tariffs on all nations and on all goods is a "Blunt instrument" that is idiotic and will cause more and unnecessary problems than any that it will fix.

Since day one, I have stated that TRUMP (as a person) will cause chaos and destruction of our nation, and the results of this tariff war will begin to confirm my evaluation of Trump

Over 50 nations want to start trade talks with US after tariffs, Trump officials say​

6 Apr 2025 ~~ By Douglas Gillison, Ben Blanchard and Sara Rossi


  • Summary
  • Trump officials defend tariffs after rocky rollout
  • Officials highlight leverage with other nations
  • Lutnick says penguin island deliberately targeted
  • Taiwan, Israel and India seek deals
WASHINGTON/TAIPEI/VERONA, Italy, April 6 (Reuters) - More than 50 nations have reached out to the White House to begin trade talks since U.S. President Donald Trump rolled out sweeping new tariffs, top officials said on Sunday as they defended levies that wiped out nearly $6 trillion in value from U.S. stocks last week and downplayed economic fallout.
On Sunday morning talk shows, Trump's top economic advisers sought to portray the tariffs as a savvy repositioning of the U.S. in the global trade order. They also tried to minimize the economic shocks from last week's tumultuous rollout, ahead of Monday's expected bumpy opening of Asian stock markets.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said more than 50 nations had started negotiations with the U.S. since last Wednesday's announcement, putting Trump in a position of power.
Neither Bessent nor the other officials named the countries or offered details about the talks. But simultaneously negotiating with multiple countries could pose a logistical challenge for the Trump administration and prolong economic uncertainty.
~Snip~
Some nations have already signaled a willingness to engage with the U.S. to avoid the duties.
Taiwan's President Lai Ching-te on Sunday offered zero tariffs as the basis for talks with the U.S., pledging to remove trade barriers and saying Taiwanese companies will raise their U.S. investments.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would seek a reprieve from a 17% tariff on the country's goods during a planned meeting with Trump on Monday.
An Indian government official told Reuters the country does not plan to retaliate against a 26% tariff and said talks were under way with the U.S. over a possible deal.
~Snip~
The process used to determine the tariffs came under scrutiny last week after they were applied to uninhabited Antarctic islands populated by penguins and other tiny, remote places.
Lutnick said a comprehensive approach was needed so that small nations could not be used by larger countries to circumvent the tariffs.
"Basically (Trump) said, 'I can't let any part of the world be a place where China or other countries can ship through them,'" Lutnick said.

What are you gonna complain about now!?
Here’s fingers in yer eye whiner.
Your TDS, ideology and fear mongering exceeds your reasoning. No matter what Trump decides to do to improve America's economy and place in the world will be opposed by ideolog's like you.
 
Notice the demofks in here can’t answer if other countries already have tariffs on our imports? Not an honest one among them

I dont agree with your characterization of America last. That’s total BS. Americas has been number 1 in most categories for both of our lifetimes and beyond.

Trillions have been wiped from our markets because of Trumps idiotic tariff actions. If that was Biden you would be screaming your head off. Not shrugging it off by saying it will come back…. That’s ridiculous

I have a hard time believing this is going to last long. The inflation domino effect would kill us. Trump is trying to get our former friends to blink to any degree so he can claim victory.

Surely someone close to him has told him. He's clueless, but someone around him has to know.

Americans are presently paying 90% of the tariffs put up by Trump. That is an additional $1,000 per year, per household
