Closely inspecting the list of tariffs/countries posted by the White House, Trump did not put tariffs on Russia. Ukraine's tariff is 10%, the EU's is 20%, and every American ally is on the list. But not Russia.

Because we have major sanctions on Russia and don’t trade with it (although Trump would like to). This list is going by countries which send us more than they buy from us.
That's because - "everyone has been really mean to me, bigly, and I've been treated very unfairly. I want to be a big important boy, just like my Daddy Vlad."
While we put sanctions on their oil and gas we did not put sanctions on their Uranium. This article says we get 12% of our uranium. But the WSJ said we get "most of our processed uranium from Russia."
Trump imposed tariffs on 180 countries-including uninhabited places like the Heard and McDonald Islands, which have no population and zero exports to the U.S.
Yes, you read that right. We’re taxing nothing from no one.
Sorry to be picky but Canada and Mexico are not on the list. Because apparently these are reciprocal tariffs and Canada and Mexico aren't getting them. Also a lot of the "countries" listed aren't countries they're just islands. The list is super funky.
They are not on the new list because they were already subjected to tariffs, so if we are making a list of countries exempted from his tariffs (which is my list here) Canada and Mexico definitely aren't in that group
It doesn't matter. If we have Russia a negative tariff of 100% on every manufactured good we buy from them (almost none), it would still be 'shithole' country.
Because we have sanctions against Russia, North Korea, Belarus, and Cuba, and so we're not supposed to be trading with them in the first place. Stop reaching.
Didn't Biden's Suspending NTR Act already put tariffs on Russia at 35% in 2022, in line with Europe. Or did the demented orange buffoon overturn that already?
It figures. Russia will be the new trading partner to Trump's America. Congratulations to all the American companies who will get ripped off, blackmailed and finally cheated out of their business, when going back to Russia. Musk needs a new market for his cars.

Trumps problem now and always has been that he was never taken behind the barn when he was young.
