So just to recap:
1. The reciprocal tariffs aren't reciprocal. The rates announced by Trump are unrelated to the tariffs charged by other countries.
Imports from Brazil, which imposes relatively high tariffs, will face lower rates than countries that impose little or no tariffs on US goods.

Applying a flat rate algo to a bunch of data, copied from a purloined database, is easier, quicker, & simp-ler.

Yes, you read that right. We’re taxing nothing from no one.

I'd prefer a big meteor wipe all of them out.
His super-rich gang is also doing great if he revives the Great Depression in 1930.
The stupid people who voted for him are now getting poorer.
Congrats.

It is up to us.
This is crazy. Shockingly, it also turns out not to be true...
We buy lots of stuff from them (more than they buy from us) and so they get punished. Dumb.
We have a trade deficit in goods of $1.2 trillion, and a trade surplus in services of $293 billion.
I wouldn’t count on that services trade surplus to stay at $293b for long…
Like Australia. Minimal tariffs on U.S. goods. Buys more stuff from us than it sells to us. Tariff rate: Still 10 percent.

Is there a NYT editor on Bluesky who could remove references to “reciprocal” without qualifications from Times coverage?
Trump has been uttering “reciprocal” for some time
Not in good faith or accurately
But he got some presumption of regularity today anyway

We have the son of our former authocrat wanna-be (Eduardo Bolsonaro and Jair Bolsonaro, respectively) working to convince the US to impose even more tariffs just becauss their coup attempt failed.
Please... let it be...

Ironically, he also doesn't want to be known as Herbert Hoover 2.0, but we're in Smoot-Hawley land now...🙄
Then again, he prefers 1930s German history & historical figures
Imagine saying to your hairstylist -after they give you the bill- “Now what are you gonna buy from me to make this fair?” 🤣
As if it's their fault we buy their goods.
