that’d be my guess. it sure isn’t going to “trickle down” to us, especially since WE are the suckers paying those billions.

2B per day at first, but it will get lower and lower as the months go by. Same thing will happen to all American exports.

Truck drivers, dock workers, logistics and delivery businesses will be hit soon.

I don’t know what to believe about anything he says, he also said China wants negotiate and here we are at 104%tariffs.

To make up for the tax cut for the billionaires. But said billionaires aren't happy because the tariff war tanked the stock market. They're losing more money than ever.

He'll want half as a bonus.
