Vietnam’s economy expanded slower than economists’ forecast in the first quarter as the country braces for Donald Trump’s 46% tariff that threatens future growth.

There are many Chinese factories in Vietnam, and they might have shipped to thr US from here. It's not fun when we also impacted by a decision that is meant to our partners. But, would you leave your partner when he bankrupts and come to him when he has a lot of money? 🤷♀️
I hope Vietnam can hold off negotiating with a proven liar…these Tariffs, or GOP political careers, cannot last for long. Wait until American’s see the sticker shock of price increases. The 1/3 who couldn’t bother to vote in 2024 will get up and use their voice. I think he will put a hold next week.
Curious if it's true that Trump is planning to build a resort in Vietnam... Bet it would make it easier if they had basically no economy & labour cost even LESS than the almost nothing it did pre-tariff, huh?
2. Trump/GOP/Billionaires trying to squeeze more profits out a small/vulnerable developing nation? Vietnam, a nation that in the past we destroyed w/thousands and thousands of bombs and bullets and agent orange!
3. And Evangelicals continue to support this immorality?
