Trump inks EU trade deal. His tariff strategy is working as planned.

[Nostra]

Nope, I sure didn't.

I'm glad that you have to lie.

I quoted you, liar.

Keep digging.

So American employers have to pay 15% more now after paying the tariff?

Wow, what a huge win for Trump, huh?

 

[Mac1958]

Sorry, American employers. You deserve better. The import tariffs you have to pay has increased from 1.47% to 15.20%.

The economic impact of Trump’s tariffs on Europe: an initial assessment

Before the trade war, the average US tariff rate on imports from the EU was 1.47 percent, while on EU imports from the US it was 1.35 percent. Based on 2023 trade volumes, full implementation of Trump’s tariffs (Figure 1) would raise the average tariff rate on imports from the EU to 15.2 percent.

Those EO's Joe signed on his first day set the course. Destroy yourselves. Please. Do not destroy the rest of us.

All the bedwetting about rampant inflation and supply chain disruptions were lies.

More Trump winning for America, more losing for the Democrats party.

Trump 47 has Democrats flailing at the air. All they and their lapdog Media can do is howl and rage.

Yes! American employers have to eat it.

Good answer!

They don't have to eat anything.

But I guess that empoyers eating a 30% increase in taxes is okay.

They are so flustered that can’t add 15 and 15.

 

[Mac1958]

Why not?

Who is paying the tariff, then?

Didn't he do that last month too?

What changed?

Where is all the rampant inflation you clowns predicted?

The huge trade deal Trump inked with Japan last week forced the EU to come to it’s senses, Simp.

Next?

Pathetic dodge.

Watch as prices rise to meet the tariffs. I doubt if Trump made a deal with the EU, because that deal would probably need to be voted on.

 

[Darkwind]

The EU and/or their various nations.

It isn't all that difficult, even for someone as illiterate as you are.

Manufacturing in the US is not subject to tariffs.

 

[excalibur]

I see Mac1958 is the one holding the bag on this thread. Maybe they should activate someone else.

 

[Mac1958]

*** I was wrong about American employers having to pay 15.00% more.

It's 13.73%, see post 44. They were already paying 1.47%.

Tough shit for them, I guess.

You're saying the other country pays tariffs on imports coming into America?

Is that what you're saying?
