China imposed tariffs of up to 15 percent on a raft of U.S. farm products on Tuesday and blacklisted more than 20 U.S. companies, marking a major escalation in a brewing trade war between the world’s two largest economies.

Well done, Trumpy. You've just made every America citizen a lot poorer,through Ukraine under a bus ,crashed the stock market, and pushed up inflation,
All since 20th January, haven't you done well.👏
fuck fuck fuck - I swear to gawd it's all because they've all taken SHORTS on the stock market and will make a killing when America and the stock market crash. I'm half imagining - but know enough - BIG money making always occurs off the backs of financial suffering for others.
Since this is behind a payroll and I refuse to pay one cent for this paper that could pretty much line a birdcage. Can someone tell me which companies China blacklisted
But comrade donald has told us that this is all about fentanyl, not trade,
those tariffs comes later...
the administration wants to get it's act together...
what exactly are these tariffs about?
Apart from making life REALLY hard for everyone.
And Putin really happy...
Barbecuing was the great pleasure of the American middle class.
Because of Trump and his stupid tariff policy, barbecues have just officially become an activity reserved for the rich.
And now Chuck Grassley is "concerned " how this will affect Iowa farmers. The same ones that voted for Trump despite the fact that he told them repeatedly that he was going to do it.
Plus you can add the tariffs Canada just put on US farmers and it’s looking pretty grim for y’all. Call your representatives and let them know your disgust for the 🍊🤡 reckless tariff war that HE STARTED.
The move targets some of the United States’ top exports to China, including soybeans, meat and grains.
It was retaliation for Trump’s announcement that he would increase tariffs on Chinese products by an additional 10 percentage points, bringing the total tax on some Chinese products to 45 percent.
Hopefully China will buy some more Canadian grains to soften the blow. Maybe we can send them our minerals that the US needs seeing that Putin will be your supplier soon
Get ready for a long and bumpy road! Inflation will destroy our economy! I thought Trump was going to stop inflation and lower prices on Day 1 of his administration!!
We’ll see how farmers & rural folks react. Will they come down hard on this administration or just claim that this is all part of Trump’s strategy? That they will just have to temporarily suffer before “things get better”? Also, Make America Racist Again is a huge appeal to many rural voters.

Hey, Kara Swisher is trying to put a group together to buy the Washington Post! Cancel your subscriptions now and burn a hole in Jeff Bozo's pocket!! Maybe we can get advertisers to boycott as well.

With a rapist mentality, President Trump’s ploy is to manufacture consent by suffocating Canada’s economy . If submission through economic means doesn’t work, need we look further than Putin‘s handbook to understand what’s next?
But seeing how this story is reported in the Washington Post it lacks credibility- Mr Bezos ideas on journalism are to extend the lying of his political allies who allow him to pay no taxes!
Time for decent Americans to actually turn out & VOTE. Put every ounce of energy into the 3 House elections in the next few weeks. Make it the biggest voter drive in history - to win back the House. This may be your last chance.
Good. Because the only way to deal with Trump's bullying tactics is to call his bluff. He banks on people caving in the face of his threats. But, like the schoolyard bully who gets punched in the face, he too will back down if you stand up to him...
Guess what? The European Union is already planning major tariffs for the US in retaliation for the disgraceful attitude towards Ukraine and its unreliability. However it will be a first strike and not a reaction so the schoolyard bullies in the WH will soon hear “incoming”!!

Punishing US farmers, most of whom vote Republican…
But y’all voted for this.
