The liberal gaslighting about the tariffs is very funny. Lots of people yelling at folks that “everyone has known the tariffs have been gone for weeks”. And then many, many more people being surprised the tariffs are gone. Truly some historically bad comms work. - ThreadSky

Wrong. Many remain in place

unpubmedia.bsky.social•28 days ago

Exactly. It’s not a story until they are all removed and CUSMA is upheld.

steveboots.bsky.social•28 days ago

And many are gone. But you’re gonna ignore that bit

beantown123.bsky.social•28 days ago

No.but Trump still sucks. And tarrifs are an incompetent way to get revenue

Or, maybe the people who didn't know about this couldn't be bothered to read a newspaper or watch a newscast. They'd rather complain than learn. I suppose it's much easier that way. 🤣

I consider myself pretty informed and this is news to me

Here's another take on these tariffs.

procrastamara.bsky.social•28 days ago

Nah, I didn’t realize the tariffs were gone — or if I did, I forgot. I read the news and listen to news podcasts daily. But that’s Trump’s strategy, isn’t it? To throw so much at us that we can’t keep up? Couple that with our recent election — there’s only so much information people can process.

dommar6605.bsky.social•28 days ago

Agreed. There is a lot of information to absorb. Here is what happened and, most importantly, why.

Here is a different interpretation to the Oxford Report that people are citing. A simple Google search is all that was required.

I don't even follow that shit anymore. Tarrifs or not, I ain't buying american until the orange stain leaves

Due to the fact that mango Mussolini is mentally deranged, doesn't care, and has no idea what the fuck he is doing other than what Miller and Vought tell him to due an sign, the uncertainty is real so is the price gauging. The tariffs are paused, not gone. Who are these liberals you speak of?

alanstange.bsky.social•28 days ago

I’m confused. My quick Perplexity query asserts that USA Tariffs are currently in place on Canada. I binge on BlueSky, CBC News, and Ground News. In what way are tariffs gone? (Yeah, the whole CUSMA wrinkle).

canuckflash.bsky.social•28 days ago

The tariffs which applied to the CUSMA agreement have been removed but that is all.

steveboots.bsky.social•28 days ago

If the public is generally finding out about it weeks after it happened, and there a bunch of articles saying “you already knew this” you are already losing

onclejef.bsky.social•28 days ago

I'm guessing the American ask was to be quiet about it so we can all forget about this, which is better than Trump towers everywhere I guess?
