This is hilarious. Dealmaker Trump has ZERO deals in place. His own lead on this says... "many of these countries havent even contacted us". What a debacle of an administration. Trump will lead this country to economic ruin.
Hold onto your butts: Tariffs are about to Kick in

What is the UK's trade agreement with the US?
As of early May, there’s now an Economic Prosperity Deal (EPD) in place between the UK and the US, with the intent to promote tradeMost UK goods now have a 10 per cent levy on them when exported to the States, though there are exceptions, such as in the aerospace industry which has a zero tariff agreement under the terms of the EPD.
Who else has an agreement?
So far, Vietnam are the only other nation to have agreed a deal hough there is a truce agreement of sorts with China, with details of the agreement scarce but both sides previously saying an arrangement is in place.MSN

Neither is a deal. Both are understandings made in a broad discussion which agreed to proceed to working on a deal. Nowhere near a deal.
/---/ Prove it.
I'll prove you cant post the text of any Trade deal done by Trump since this one in 2020:

NEW U.S.-VIETNAM TRADE FRAMEWORK
The White House has announced a new bilateral trade framework with Vietnam, which includes the application of tariffs on U.S. imports from Vietnam and expanded market access for U.S. exports to Vietnam. According to public statements on social media, goods originating from Vietnam will be subject to a 20% tariff, while goods identified as transshipped may face a 40% tariff. In return, Vietnam is expected to grant U.S. products tariff-free access to its domestic market.NEXT STEPS
Although formal documentation has not yet been released, the White House stated that this agreement follows direct discussions with Vietnam’s General Secretary To Lam. Officials noted that the expanded access could create new opportunities for U.S. exports, particularly in the automotive sector.Additional guidance is expected as trade implementation terms are finalized. Importers and exporters are encouraged to monitor forthcoming details related to tariff administration, certificate of origin requirements, and any compliance mechanisms affecting shipments to or from Vietnam.

Trade agreements are treaties and have to be ratified by the Senate.
Honestly you couldnt have proved my point more flawlessly.. I highlighted the fact that no agreements have been made. Zero. Your two lists are general understandings with no deals completed yet. So he has two general understandings and zero deals. Zero.
/—-/ No matter what I post your TDS will disagree. The deals are in place no matter what you want to believe.
You don't have to remind me what a mess Biden left the steel industry in.
Yep.....all of those docs they signed don't really exist.
Course a few countries haven't signed final agreements....so according to dipshits like you....nothing has been signed.

Charts that show America's “reciprocal tariffs” on display in the press briefing room at the White House on April 2 in Washington, DC.
CNN —
The 90-day deadline President Donald Trump set for countries to make trade deals with the United States or risk substantially higher tariffs is just days away. What will happen after that’s reached at 12:01 a.m. ET on July 9 is anyone’s best guess.
The stakes could not be higher, with the entire global economy on notice.
On April 2, a date Trump dubbed “Liberation Day,” he unveiled new, “reciprocal” tariff rates for key US trading partners, with some levies as high as 50%. Collectively, the rates were the highest the US has charged on foreign goods in over a century. Economists quickly sounded alarms about a recession hitting not just certain countries, but rather the whole world.
Of course.

He does not have two agreements. Nothing was passed by the Senate to ratify a new trade treaty.
No deals are in place. Link me to the deal. It should be easy. You wont, cuz you cant.

- Jordan
- Korea
- Mexico
- Morocco
- Nicaragua
- Oman
- Panama
- Peru
- Singapore
Link me to any signed deal. I just posted my link to the ones in place above. None are from this year.
You're missing the picture on how protectionism works. Tariffs don't lower the cost of manufacturing things in America. They make the higher cost American-made product competitive with the now more expensive foreign made item.
For example, if an automaker can import a car from Mexico and sell it for $35,000 and make a profit but manufacturing that car in the U.S. would require a $40,000 selling price to turn a profit, the American car buyer's wallet will still be hit if manufacturing is moved to the U.S.

Additionally, if a vehicle is made in the US, that steel, aluminum, copper, etc. are still taxed at a tariff rate, and that cost added to the price of the vehicle.
