*LUTNICK: ALL USMCA-COMPLIENT GOODS TO EARN EXEMPTIONS

Comments

Whatever it is, it'll change again in a few hours, or days

Btw - When will the orange felon be signing an EO rescinding those tariffs?

Or is it just more bullshit from Lutnick?

crusa64.bsky.social•2 days ago

Lutnick saying that #47 is so engaged in these economic policies makes we wonder why, all he seems interested in is going to Florida and playing golf every chance he gets.

gilmored85.bsky.social•2 days ago

directly contradicts Trudeau saying "trade war for foreseeable future" tho it feels like

inglesongrey.bsky.social•2 days ago

Schrödinger's tariffs.

josephpolitano.bsky.social•2 days ago

He keeps repeating this in ways I don’t understand. I think he’s only talking about USMCA-compliant autos?

peark.es•2 days ago

Apparently it's just "likely" but...still.

*CORRECT: LUTNICK:ALL USMCA-TIED GOODS LIKELY TO EARN EXEMPTIONS

romancaturday.bsky.social•2 days ago

Stating the obvious but “earn” feels like a call for more bribes.

frenchbully.bsky.social•2 days ago

LOL

So everything exempt and all we did was piss off consumers in both countries who now are less likely to buy American brands.

Art of the fucking deal ladies and gentlemen.

peark.es•2 days ago

lol okay buddy, whatever

*LUTNICK: USMCA GOODS-RELATED TARIFF DELAY LIKELY TIL APRIL 2

jorgejones2024.bsky.social•2 days ago

I did not appreciate how much bullshit we were spared by the normie republicans that staffed Trump 1.0. I owe a significant chunk of them an apology, lol.

hobbidysparks.bsky.social•2 days ago

So, still tariffs on illegal drugs?

elkmovie.bsky.social•2 days ago

Losing the ability to insider-trade his way to billions of dollars in profits by shooting his mouth off too indiscriminately

peark.es•2 days ago

Uh, yeah, it's a lot more than that lol

*LUTNICK: OVER 50% OF IMPORTS FROM CANADA, MEXICO COMPLY W/USMCA

bahrad.bsky.social•2 days ago

Even good where there are existing tariffs are mostly within rate quotas written into the agreement!

spencercallaghan.ca•2 days ago

I mean, 100% is over 50%, where the lie?

/sigh

nikolaidenmark.bsky.social•2 days ago

Tariffs to apply only to fentanyl shipments.

whasat.bsky.social•2 days ago

Guess I'll have to start buying my fentanyl from a local source.

proudrebelscum.bsky.social•2 days ago

😂

devokneivel.bsky.social•2 days ago

Fentanyl is Trump's yellow cake uranium that was used by Bush as an excuse to start the Iraq War.

invalid-handle.com•2 days ago

It’s only Freedom Fentanyl for me from now on *waves flag*

wikisteff.bsky.social•2 days ago

What in the actual fuck, George?

skoryy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Wall Street very unhappy

devokneivel.bsky.social•2 days ago

Why should Canada be bound by USMCA when the US ignores it at will?

Maybe Canada should charge spot price for oil, just to be fair and stop managing prices? How bout 15-20$ more per barrel and get rid of that 'fake' price?

vivasisyphus.bsky.social•2 days ago

And yet…

My impression is that they want the markets to slow leak instead of blow out.

wavebidder.bsky.social•2 days ago

generous of you to assume there's an iota of a plan

riverdaleboy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Perfect messaging from PMJT

riverdaleboy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Approximately double

ruthwe.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’ll tell you exactly what’s going on as a 🇨🇦 because our leaders told us. They are playing hardball and have been adamant that there will be no compromise they will just accept the previously made deal.

riverdaleboy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Exactly

ruthwe.bsky.social•2 days ago

One of our politicians and Kevin O’Leary flew down to Maralago and told Trump we were weak and our gov would crumble. The opposite happens and now they find themselves in a pickle.

jeffreyclail.com•2 days ago

It's pretty clear to me that he and trump are not aligned

smallmutuals.bsky.social•2 days ago

Well he did say “over” so as to ve technically correct

raeckart.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hard to say "up to 100%" when Don might be watching

jdotj.bsky.social•2 days ago

The administration is dangling Lutnick out like a weather vane and reading reactions, but it's all in 24 hours.

jdobry5122.bsky.social•2 days ago

Feel like Eisen did a good job pressing on the "fentanyl"

ukrainewarpod.bsky.social•2 days ago

He is losing credibility (as if the markets should have given him any to begin with… sigh). This is kind of brutal!

trevordickie.bsky.social•2 days ago

Dont be so mean! Thinking is very difficult for these guys….

pwnedlib.bsky.social•2 days ago

He just wants the market to be green. He will keep doing this as long as the market reacts to his tv statements

ozmodiar.bsky.social•2 days ago

They don’t know that the result of whipsawing your tariff policy every day is that the market will stop listening altogether

pwnedlib.bsky.social•2 days ago

Market is reacting now

hotrollhottakes.bsky.social•2 days ago

i am starting to think nobody should be listening to what this lutnick guy is saying,

jcoffi.bsky.social•2 days ago

Is it him, or is it Fantaman being fickle?

magand65.bsky.social•2 days ago

And he wants to change how we measure GDP.

various-threnodies.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm glad that Trudeau just came out and said the trade war is going to go on for a while to counteract the ability of markets to huff the copium with this lol

noctouyan.bsky.social•2 days ago

this has got to be Lutnick copecasting, and, uh, not just Trudeau but Doug Ford gets a vote here lmao

hudsonrivercroc.bsky.social•2 days ago

Wait, isn’t all trade of goods between US, Canada and Mexico regulated by USMCA?

hudsonrivercroc.bsky.social•2 days ago

Ah, I see the previous skeet… WTF

capitaledgenyct.bsky.social•2 days ago

lol - sir, Orange is president may I remind you

hudsonrivercroc.bsky.social•2 days ago

Sir, yes sir 😂😭

isaiahbishop.bsky.social•2 days ago

announcing this as trudeau says theres a trade war for foreseeable future

Would be great if there was a policy here

maxkennerly.bsky.social•2 days ago

george in your financial experience is it good for the federal government to determine policy based on "uh I think maybe we'll comply with trade agreements but maybe not if we can't talk him into it tee hee keep you guessing lolz"?

paretooptimizer.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’m sure *this* will be the flip-flop that calms markets.

nonplussed12.bsky.social•2 days ago

This would be hilarious if it wasn't yanking everyone's chain.

pwnedlib.bsky.social•2 days ago

This is market manipulation. Anything he says should not be taken as truth until Trump himself announces it

gemcom2000.bsky.social•2 days ago

And even then…

stevezorowitz.bsky.social•2 days ago

You can't convince me someone's not front running all these tariff tweets.

columnist.bsky.social•2 days ago

What

shuadc.bsky.social•2 days ago

Wait is it just Mexico now?

tokustarvulkan.bsky.social•2 days ago

He’s talking shit

mwilbert.bsky.social•2 days ago

Assuming this is true (and I trust what Lutnick says not at all), what was the point of this nonsense?

maja-p.bsky.social•2 days ago

You could have made good money gambling* in the stock market
*insider trading

mwilbert.bsky.social•2 days ago

True. And perhaps that's the whole explanation.

davidkelley718.bsky.social•2 days ago

Can we assume this means that all of the US industry players that get materials/goods from Canada have paid their monthly vig, then?

jj-justadork.bsky.social•2 days ago

So cattle complies? Asking for a friend

gwippy.bsky.social•2 days ago

FAFO in real time.

This is what happens when you make moves based on concepts of a plan.

wutangsecret.bsky.social•2 days ago

DEI goods, though, get double secret tariffs

edino.bsky.social•2 days ago

The thing is that everytime Lutnick says something like this, Trump tweets the opposite like 3 hours later (as I see you’re already touching on in a follow up)

katiecannon.bsky.social•2 days ago

I little 😈 says crash it all down !!!!!

Another little 😈 says ….. 😬

irishoutsider.bsky.social•2 days ago

That’s not gonna get the Jack Daniel’s back on the shelves eh

rainbowbody.bsky.social•2 days ago

Only the transgender goods are affected.

massrebel.bsky.social•2 days ago

I wait till it actually happen and not take to word of this pet.

marksfca.bsky.social•2 days ago

Why? I thought tariffs were great for our economy and are not inflationary. Reporters should ask him why.

ambig.bsky.social•2 days ago

He just said about 50% of the companies are compliant, but then said he was making that up.

* LUTNICK: I USED MY EMPLOYEES' DEATHS ON 9/11 FOR PERPETUAL CLOUT

frankenmizer.bsky.social•2 days ago

Watching 'em dance madly backwards on a sea of their own bullshit.

scohoe.bsky.social•2 days ago

EXCEPT THE CARTEL FENTANYL WHICH WILL GET TARIFFS!

katiecannon.bsky.social•2 days ago

Cartel should just give Donnie some cash 💵

pppgrifter.bsky.social•2 days ago

None of this makes sense. This guy is such a clown.

katiecannon.bsky.social•2 days ago

Resist !!!!!

jcoffi.bsky.social•2 days ago

"Earn"?

baileymcc.bsky.social•2 days ago

“Earn” seems like cover to keep this dance going for infinity

scottstevrva.bsky.social•2 days ago

That’ll really uncork business investment. Month to month 🤷‍♂️ on when/if/how much/for how long costs will increase.

masonvettericks.bsky.social•2 days ago

how do they determine if a good is USMCA compliant?

robbieusanl.bsky.social•2 days ago

Depends on the size of the check

katiecannon.bsky.social•2 days ago

💵💵💵💵💵💵

miawau.bsky.social•2 days ago

Lol the US is a shit show

Someone tell 🍑 that gov is hard

various-threnodies.bsky.social•2 days ago

Lol, so if true we get much of the downsides of tariffs with none of the supposed benefits? Masterful gambit, Mr Trump

leobebb.bsky.social•2 days ago

rogeralien.bsky.social•2 days ago

Once again the orange moron makes a lot of noise and breaks some china only to back down after a day or two. In a few weeks, it will be time to rinse and repeat the cycle. 🤡
