China is way more indispensable to us than the other two and too interlinked with us to mess around with.

Says he is thinking strategically? Is that what you mean by “it all”?
I wonder if this "discous" of the tariff is related to the shares of Chinese espionage or is it the final degradation of Pax Americana?

China already got 25% tariffs from his first term.
So now tariffs on China is 35%, higher than Canada and Mexico.
So it’s way more complicated than this. It’s an additional tariff on top of what is already there. So for example lots of goods are already tariffed coming into the US from China. Something’s coming from China can see a 5-35% tariff. Canada also has defensive tariffs for their

Not a lot of immigrants come to China, even fewer cross the border shared with the US.
China already has 25% (Steel, magnets, medical, minerals), 50% (semi conductors and solar panels) - 100% on EVs.
Adding 10% to their tariff burden makes them higher than our allies tariffs.
Slapping more than 10% on China would completely screw the majority of Americans who can only afford to buy things made in China.
It would screw a lot of businesses too that get their components from China which is probably the only reason it isn't any higher.
I don’t know if it says it all, but it says something. I can tell you, as a Canadian, I cannot wait for our election, so that our new Conservative PM can fight for us and end the near decade of Liberal madness that’s nearly destroyed us.
Would need to calculate what the total post-increase tariffs would be for each country to know whether China is getting a good deal. Some tariffs probably remain from his first term.
China doesn’t have a border with US unloading illegals and criminal and drugs across the border.
China already had tariffs on them. This was an additional 10%. You could have looked that up yourself.
Armand thrives on his audience being stupid.
Are they?
These are the tariffs we already impose on China.
(notice the dates)
It says China has more leverage on us than the others. That's all it says.
It is definitely bad. We need to work harder to bring more manufacturing back home asap so we can get China's tariff up to 25%.
Here’s a rundown of Trump’s health policy stances and his potential top priorities in a second administration.
He slaps the least amount of tariff on the source of the fentanyl he is "supposedly" trying to control.
If Canada and Mexico start supplying fentanyl will he reduce those tariffs to 10%?
They’re all not allies if they’re allowing mass amounts of drugs to come into our country
In May, the target was Robert Fico. In July, it was Donald Trump. The pattern of these attacks is becoming clearer. Who could be next?
You do know there are already tariffs ranging between 25%-100% on Chinese imports.
Mexico and Canada are not our Allies.
They are parasitical towards the US
Mexico has allowed cartels and human traffickers to destroy communities in our country while allowing tens of millions to travel through their country to invade the US
What are the tariffs on China currently? And what are the tariffs on Mexico, Canada? Also hasn’t the Mexican President, and Governor Trudeau been making things extremely difficult when it comes to the sovereignty of the United States? I know the leftist cartel owned president in

Canada’s been suckin’ on Uncle Sam’s teat like a lazy calf, actin’ like a friend but livin’ off our scraps. Time to bring that frozen welfare state into the fold!

Until you realize the cost impact, and damage to our country, our so called "allies" have caused. WTFU
We have more trade with China.
It’s actually a large cumulative tariffs burden on China then Mexico and Canada combined.
But you’re a Democrat, so ai don’t expect you to understand math, ratios, and economics/finance in general.

Yea it says canada and mexico are only getting tariffed because they won’t help us with drug trafficking.
I believe the 10% is in addition to the section 301 (25%) China tariff so a total of 35%, excluding any anti dumping and regular tariff on each product
Elsewhere it was claimed that the 10% on China is in addition to other tariffs, which would make a lot more sense.
Donald Trump returns to the presidency with big ambitions to shake up health care including public health institutions, federal health programs, and high costs.
You do know this raising the tariffs already on china from 25% to 35% correct -
He’s afraid of China- I would be far more worried about what Canada will do.

I mean, that isn't even a fraction of it. Have you seen the pictures out of Venezuela? They basically recognized Maduro as the heir of Bolivar in Miraflores...
Like shaking hands with Putin, who is doing his best Washington impression, within the White House.
Because co-president Elon Musk didn't like it. His Tesla factory is there, and his big Tesla market.
You are confused.
Canada and Mexico need to secure their borders then no tariffs.
China is loving this. Read a quote from a South American the other day: “When the US shows up its to punish and lecture. When China shows up they want to trade”
She's right, USA has 10x the population, 10x consumption requirements , that means 90% of the USA market is closed to Canada. Size matters.
Canada and Mexico pose little military threat to US as a whole. China on the other hand requires a more strategic approach. Military might and technological advancement holds sway. China is a direct competitor in the AI and military tech race - Mexico and Canada? Sidebars.
And Americans will pay. Higher grocery prices, and the auto sector layoffs will begin February 10.

Yes they are NOT our allies…
Drugs and illegals into our country from theirs
FuuucccYou
China already has high tariffs that Trump slapped on them last time that Biden kept because they worked. He's slapping an additional 10%.
And then justifying it by lying about the number of fentanyl deaths is exactly what we should expect from Team Trump.
They described it as tens of millions of deaths. It’s much, much, much smaller than that.
Could it be because every single item for sale at the Trump store is made in China?

I think they’ll get their turn…. I think they are trying to make a deal on chips? Nvidia meeting yesterday.
Also he may be waiting for BRICS to make a move?
This is the biggest chess piece of them all.
Things are happening fast. I’d expect clarity before March.

The 10% is in addition to the tariffs that have already been in place on China since Trump’s first term.
The higher tariffs for China are coming later. During Howard Lutnick's confirmation hearing, he talked about how the tariffs on China were going to take more time because they were going to use another part of US law, and the law requires some studies to be done. Maybe April.

We already have 25% tarrifs on china. The 10% is in addition to. But yeah FUCK TRUMP. lol
