Many of these countries barely had any tariffs to begin with. Hopefully he will just point to their low tariffs, claim a "win," and call of this insanity. |
King Coal McCarthy too. |
He wants everyone to call him personally to feed his bottomless ego. |
At what point would Congress invoke the 25th Amendment to remove this insane piece of shit from office? Do the MAGA types want everyone reduced to poverty and dependent on government handouts?

Trump overestimates his popularity outside the US. |
and inside the US |
Seems like the GOP and business leaders are marching like lemmings off the cliff, economy and republic be damned. |

European Union officials have approved a fresh set of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports.
The duties, some of which would go into effect April 15, would range from 10% to 25% on more than $24 billion worth of goods, including tobacco, motorcycles, poultry, steel and aluminum. |

Guessing here but maybe because the market had priced in some response from the EU and it wasn’t worse than what they expected? |
Because trump encourage his followers to "be cool" despite the meltdown. |
