Trump says 10% is floor for tariffs; ‘Some will be much higher’​

President Donald Trump on Thursday said that 10% will be the floor for his tariffs on imports from other countries that seek to reach trade agreements with the United States.

“Some will be much higher because they have massive trade surpluses and in many cases they didn’t treat us right,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

Trump’s comment came as he discussed a new trade agreement with the United Kingdom.

During that Oval Office event, Trump’s Truth Social account said that U.S. tariffs on imports from the UK will remain at the baseline 10% rate that he imposed on most countries in the world in early April.

Put another way, nothing he says can be believed. Nothing. He's gone back on his word too many times for anyone to take what he says day to day as the final word. That's a problem, as one can imagine. But then most people realize criminals can't be trusted.

After all, he blew up a N. American trade deal he made himself.

If I were a political cartoonist I'd draw a picture of Bessent standing beside Don when he makes these reckless comments with a bubble over Bessent's head reading, "just shut the **** up for goodness sake."

Trump’s a useless sack of dog shit. He has the emotional maturity and intelligence of an 8th grader and his cult following idiot supporters are too stupid to see it. America has become so embarrassing

billy how come your party could not beat this useless bag of dog shit with the emotional maturity and intelligence of an 8th grader?.....what happened?...

Umm Americans are ******* stupid? I don’t say that because I think democrats are the answer or are at all popular. I say that because Trump should have lost to literal dog shit.

 

[Freddi00]

He keeps shifting the goalposts, and people are starting to get fed up with the unpredictability. You can't really take him seriously when he's constantly going back on his word. It’s like the boy who cried wolf at this stage.

how about the crap your party threw at the country for 4 years did that help?....

They couldn’t get away with halting the count in all the swing states in the middle of the night this time.

 

[Billy000]

Actually a lot helped yeah even it wasn’t nearly enough. But really that’s besides the point. All you care about is making the same damn point you always do: “your party sucks too!” Yes they do Harry. They just suck far less than republicans. I’m not going to pretend otherwise.

I don’t even know why I bother telling you all this. Anything I say you’re just going to mindlessly interpret as “democrats are amazing! Biden is the best president in American history!”

No one ever talks like that. You just pretend they do because it’s such a simple point any child could tear apart.
