The tarrifs are reciprocity tarrifs not unilateral increases u dumbo. They slammed the US 1st and this is a late response after studying the tarrifs are unfair.

U can rant all u want the fact remains the Trump is right and all Americans know it even if they don't admit it. U African China worshippers can remain docile and redundant all ur lives until China takes over ur country and infiltrates ur system.

Olodo. 😅😅. How did Trump come about the figures of the reciprocal tarrifs?

For example, he said Vietnam charges 90% tarrifs on US goods. 90% o. Ode like you believed him. Do you know what 90% tarrifs mean?. However, the leader of Vietnam came out to say that it is a lie. Vietnam charges an average of 9.6% tarrifs on US imports. He placed Tarrifs on Heard and McDonald Island. A place inhabited only by penguins and seagulls 😅🤣.

He imposed 29% tarrifs on Nolfolk island. A place of about 2000 people. He lied that the island charges 58% on US imports. The Island doesn't even export anything to the US to begin with 😅.
🤣.

You are the one ranting and wailing. 😅😅. Does the US still have trade deficits with China? Yes 😅😅😅. Who has taken the greatest hits since the tarrifs were announced? The US. Who has back-peddled and exempted some goods from China from the tarrifs? The US. Only them dey cry, wail and beat themselves 🤣😅😂

If u want to worship China while they rub u with unfair and imbalanced trade that's ur business. The US are not muppets to accept such nonesense like beggy beggy Africa and docile Europe.

After cheap labour whatelse does China have to brag?? That's that what's affecting the big cooperations and its the big cooperations thsts shaking the stock market not the small companies.

China are traitors, The US has been their longest standing strategic partner and they stab them I the back not only with the trade war but in many other areas that why China cannot be trusted any longer. Their overambitiousness has been exposed.

Trump is 100% right and he is the only one who can make the hard decision that other presidents where running from. Obama ur idol cudnt even dare call China out on their wrong and imbalanced trade.

Whether China likes it or not Trump will continue this trade war more specifically with them rather than with other nations cos they are crooked and manipulators.

Trump has tried to do the right thing to balance the trade and China is shocked at his courage cos they thought they were untouchable but they will feel the effects sooner than later.

China can ban foreign companies from establishing in China like Google, Facebook and others but want Huawei to dominate Europe, Asia and Africa.

U China worshipers are brainwashed dumbos and clowns.

Idiots like you do not even know that when it comes to manufacturing, the US can't beat China on skills. You think it is only cheap labour that is making companies go to the China? Ozuor 😅 😅.

China has more experts in IT, Quatum mechanics, quatum physics, semiconductor engineering etc than the US. They have deliberately trained their children in the field of IT. It makes it easy for companies like apple, Dell, Tesla etc to set up companies in China because the skills to make high end products are READILY available in China.

The US can't match China when it comes to skills needed to produce tech products like phones, electric cars, chips, laptops etc. If you have 50000 quatum mechanics in the US, there are 5 million quatum mechanics in China.

Wailing about cheap labour. Let the US get the cheap labour na. Abi you think the cheap labour they are talking about is carpenter and shoe maker? Zombie 🤣 🤣 😅🤣.

You want companies to leave a country where it is cheaper to hire a quatum mechanics or an electric engineer and they are readily available to go to a country where the skills aren't readily available and the ones that are available are very expensive. You think companies are run by emotions? Dullard. 😅

Incase dummies like don't know; these tarrifs Trump imposed on other countries are paid by Americans. It is still Americans that will pay these tarrifs by way of higher cost of goods.

The problem with dummies like you is that you people don't think for yourselves. You just believe all the rubbish the orange clown says.

The US has had trade deficits with many countries since the 1990s. You are wailing about China. What of the other countries the US have trade deficits with?

So, is it China's fault that Apple finds it cheaper to make iPhones in China than in the US?
Is it China's fault that Elon Musk finds it cheaper to produce tesla cars in China than in the US?

Instead of the US to look inward and understand why companies prefer to shift production abroad, they are chasing shadows.

Trump imposed tarrifs on UK and Australia even though the US have a trade surplus with these countries.

Let Trump do his worst. The whole world is ready for his bullshit. He started with Canada and Mexico. Now China, EU, UK, Japan, Vietnam, Australia, Singapore, South Korea etc.

He has not even been clever about it. Instead of bringing allies close to fight China, he has imposed tarrifs on both enemies and friends alike (even on Countries that have trade deficits with the US).

It is the US that is suffering now. About 6 trillion dollars have already been wiped off US stock market. Small businesses are struggling currently in the US. The idiot back tracked by exempting Chips, computers and phones from China from the tarrifs. 🤣😅🤣😅.

Ode! Think say to correct trade imbalance na by gra gra. 😅😅😅


Tell Trump to do his worst! 😅😅😅😅🤣. The US trade deficit with China will continue. Die if you nor like am 😅😅😅

jaxxy:
China have no choice but to accept a trade correction or face the worst not just from the US but Europe. They expect others to sleep off like Africa while they Rob and dominate their economies with unfair trade. The US won't let that happen anymore.

The party is over! Trump says so.

The party is not over na. The US has been the one on the losing end since Trump imposed tarrifs. Lol

Maybe you are not informed. Which Europe? I hope you know it's the whole world (China, Europe, Canada, Japan, UK, South Korea, India, Singapore etc) against the US? I hope you know the US also imposed tarrifs on Europe? So, you think Europe will join the US to fight China in a trade war? Eyaaaaah 😅🤣😂

And what is the worst US can do to China? Lol.

The orange clown has exempted computers, phones and chips from China from the tarrifs. So who has blinked first between the US and China?

The US stock market lost close to 6 trillion dollars when tarrifs were announced.

China is not even doing much talking 😅😅

Let Trump do his worst!

jaxxy:
China always confrontational even when they could be wrong.



China is not invisible. U keep hyping them and their inferior technology.

If US wakes up and pulls the plug on China they are going down. India is already been sort as a worthy alternative for China's cheap labour. Apple is already building a mega factory there. Then what will China have to brag about besides their knockoffs?

Apple can build mega factories on the moon, that's not China's problem. The point is that no country has monopoly over tarrifs. The tarrifs imposed by the orange clown wiped off almost 6 trillion dollars off the US stock market. Currently in the US, small busines owners are crying. The big corporations like apple can beg for waivers. But small businesses in the US will suffer the most.

Tell me one thing Trump has achieved since he imposed tarrifs on other countries.

The orange clown imposed tarrifs but paused it for 90 days. He imposed tarrifs on China but has back peddled to exempt some products. Only him dey move forward and backward while china laughs at him. If only other countries can stand their ground like China.

Infact, he is being accused of market manipulation; make unnecessary announcements on tarrifs. Stocks go down. Him, his friends and family members buy cheap stocks. Then he comes out weeks after to reverse himself and stock prices go up and they make gain.

Trump is a thief and a pathetic liar.

And there is no plug the US can pull on China. Let them pull it now let's see. And na China nor get plug wey them go fit pull on the US.

The way you people think the US is untouchable in trade war baffles me.

othermen:
America is sending a simple message.

“If you come to our country to study, don’t put the lives of our citizens at risk or jeopardize their safety in the tiniest fraction.” Also, your rights does not extend to protesting the governments. That is for the citizen.

If our country is any good, we would want same too. The country wasn’t this terrible when your fathers danced in the streets clamoring and excited that Shagari is deporting millions of West African Migrants from Nigeria.

You don’t clamor for what is right, you clamor for interest and One day those here that are the most angry about the US will have no doctor to recover them, and your family would pray that US, Canada, UK and Australia deport Nigerian medics. It won’t happen.

It’s inevitable unless you begin to clamor that your leaders treat healthcare workers and workers in other critical sectors well. Whatsoever outrage, give to the maladministrators of the country.

Just writing all over the place and making no sense.

DaddyCoool:
Sir, you'd seem to be the one that's a real dunce. How many times will you be told, sir, that the war was 90/91 while the interview was 1988.
And I don't know how you don't know this: US seeking UN resolutions for the wars was to legitimize her action, NOT that they needed any help at all. That's why they can condemn Russia today for unilaterally invading a sovereign nation.

All the countries you mentioned weren't living high on the hog like Kuwait. Kuwait had more oil money than they knew what to do with.

Sir you seem to be confusing multi-nationals having franchises in a counyry and a country manufacturing and shipping to another country.
Do you know the difference? How many things were/are made in US and shipped to Japan or China for mass consumption. The answer is almost zero.

Who said Jack Ma was arrested for buying American? I said Jack Ma case illustrates how China treats it's citizens, how you can't compare to the openness in US.

I hope I answered your questions sir. Anymore dumb questions, let me know

Please shut up. He didn't know that there were many jobs immigrants do in the US that Americans will not do before he was shouting that he wil carry out the largest mass deportation in US history?

Very clueless man that talks before thinking.

Same way he folded by pausing tarrifs on countries for 90 days after making so much noise.

I hope I answered your questions sir. Anymore dumb questions, let me know

Lol. You are just an anyhow person. You have said so many lies during this exchange and I have always countered you with evidence but you keep running from pillar to post.

1. On Kuwait
You seem to be very slow. Let me repeat myself. Before 1988, during 1988 when Trump did that interview, after 1988, after the iraq- Kuwait war and up till this 2025, Kuwait doesn't owe America nothing. Kuwait will not pay 25% of their oil proceeds to America. Kuwait will continue to sell their oil and keep 100% of their money. If you and Trump feel Kuwait is too rich and so should give the US some of their money, both you and Trump will choke because it wouldn't happen. He has been president before and he is president now, still Kuwait hasn't paid shi shi.

I already showed you that it was a coalition of countries that chased Iraq out of Kuwait and not US alone. Every other of your babbling doesn't matter. Same way how a coalition of countries invaded Iraq and not the US alone. The US usually seek UN resolutions so that they can get a coalition of countries to follow them to war. That was what happened in Korean war, invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, Vietnam war etc. So many countries have lost soldiers due to American wars.

Well, whatever you say, you can go collect 25% from Kuwait.

2. On Japan
You are actually a pathetic liar like Trump. Trump once said Japan doesn't open their economy for US businesses to operate (which you also said). I then showed you evidences of American companies operating in Japan. Your argument now shifted to "American export almost nothing to japan and china". Now, look at this picture below.

In January 2025, the US exported 6 billion dollars worth of goods to Japan. This is January alone. Is this what you call almost zero? I just hope I am not arguing with a mentally challenged individual. The major issue Trump has with japan is Japanese cars that come into America. And it is not Japan's fault that Americans prefer Japanese cars. Japanese cars are far more reliable than American cars all over the world. Every country has comparative advantage. Americans are good with airplanes (boeing) and fighter jets and military equipment and japan buys alot of these from America. The Japanese and Germans are good with cars and Americans buy these from japan and Germany. What is the wailing and crying all about? Even in Nigeria, people prefer Japanese and German cars to American cars.

For china, look at the figures for last year. This is what you call almost zero? Lol For china, I can't post everything because you can't upload more than 4 images on Nairaland. But the list is long.

If you say American has trade deficits with japan and china, that's a different argument. But to say that china and japan imports almost nothing from the US shows you are really slow.

Dreamhans1:
You are such a faithful idiot.. thanks for proving that you have nothing upstairs and will amount to little. You also proved that you can never think critically,and will forever remain an armchair critique.
Ode since you have nothing effective to offer, you just defeated all your rants , thereby summing everything you have been saying to zero.

Ode even tried to postulate intelligence by initially saying " I'll seat down and talk to other partners" but I saw through his facade, that this fool have nothing upstairs.

Thanks for letting us know. Since you have nothing effective to contribute, forever remain silent.

Trump this trump that. Asked baba wetin you go run,baba turn to jmbecile

This fool who is stuck in one small hole in Nigeria and who has never left the shores of Nigeria and and who doesn't know how international politics and trade works is trying so hard to appear intelligent.

I will give you some education so you stop fooling yourself. No country, I repeat, no country wakes up one day and impose tarrifs on other countries. As a leader of a country, if you feel another country or countries is taking advantage of your country, you open channels of communication for dialogue. The issues will be trashed out and preferably, a trade deal is signed. That trade deal will be binding on both countries such that, no matter who becomes leaders in those countries, the trade deal will remain binding. And a trade deal can be renegotiated.

You gave the example of China. What I tried explaining to you fool is that, Trump can't coerce China to buy more of American goods. It doesn't work that way. Let's say China promised Trump to buy more of American goods. That promise is not binding as China is not under any obligation to buy more of American goods by mere words of mouth. Trump can't drag china to WTO today because China failed to keep to it's promise to buy more of American goods. If however Trump had signed a trade deal with China, then China would be under obligation to buy those American products and if China default, America can drag China to World trade organization (WTO) and if WTO mediation fails, then the Americans can retaliate with tarrifs. That is how the world order works. It is called world order for a reason. It is an order. There are laid down procedures and guidelines for doing things. Not this knee jerk approach and chaos of Trump. And this world order was primarily established by the US. It allows for amicable settlement of trade disputes without necessarily rocking the international market and world supply chains. It is these knee jerk approach and uncertainty from Trump that has caused the US stock market to lose close to 6 trillion dollars.

Let me give you an example; during Trump's first tenure, Trump wasn't satisfied with the trade deal that the US , Mexico and Canada had. He renegotiated with these countries and a new trade deal wad signed (NAFTA). Now, he is criticizing this same trade deal his government signed and he has gone against this trade deal to impose tarrifs on Mexico and Canada. So, I want to ask you a question; If Trump can go against the trade deal that his own government signed with Mexico and Canada, what makes you feel China can uphold a promise (a promise, not a trade deal) to buy more American products? Trump went against a trade deal his own govt signed. But your issue is that China failed to keep to it's promise to buy more American goods. Between a trade deal and a promise, which is more binding? Can't you see how stupid you are?


What about the EU, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, UK, Nigeria etc and other countries Trump imposed tarrifs on without first ironing out any issues he has with these countries through negotiations? You think world trade is by gra gra?

For example, he imposed 46% tarrifs on imports from Vietnam because, according to him, Vietnam imposes 90% tarrifs on US goods. Dunce like you believed him. The average tarrifs on US goods by Vietnam is 9.6%. Which country imposes 90% tarrifs on another country?

If you understand all these, you wouldn't be asking a stupid question about what would I have done differently.



Well, he can continue with the tarrifs. The Tarrifs will be paid by US citizens. You can continue to bark from your shit-hole like a dog.


Peace ✌️

DaddyCoool:
Sir, you'd seem to be the one who doesn't know what he's talking about.
THE INTERVIEW WAS 1988
Get that into your skull sir.
Sadam was always saying Kuwait was southern Iraq; but for US he'd have simply annexed it.
As for Japan, if you went there you couldn't sell anything that was also manufactured in Japan no matter how well-made and how cheap. That's just how they were. Their citizens just didn't buy foreign goods. But they'll go to other countries like US and beat locally-made goods.
Jack Ma story illustrates how their govt operates - if you buy US-made because it's better you'd suddenly come up missing!

If you have any more dumb questions don't hesitate to ask sir.

Lastly, the US should pay 25% to all other countries that came to it's aid when they invaded Iraq after 9/11 terrorist attack in the US that killed more than 2900 Americans.


You and Trump can go collect 25% of oil proceeds from Kuwait na. Nor be to dey Nairaland dey open mouth waaaah

That is why you have to have a low IQ to believe what Trump said. As at 1988, Japan was buying American made planes (Boeing). Japan was buying American made military weapons in 1988. At at 1988, As at 1988 when Trump granted that interview, numerous US companies were operating in Japan. You just have to be able to think for yourself check out facts for yourself and leave behind whatever Trump says.

And I already showed you that it wasn't only the US that drove Iraq out of Kuwait. What is difficult to understand there? If Kuwait is to pay the US 25%, then they should also pay every other country 25% that were part of the coalition that drove Iraq out of Kuwait. Also, the US should be asking 25% of from south Korea because they also helped south Korea drive out North Korea during the Korea war. Kosovo should also pay the US and other Nato member countries 25% for helping them bomb Yugoslavia during the kosovo war. The US should also pay 25% to Mexico for annexing large part of their country during the US-Mexico war. You think say na you get sense pass.

So, you think Jack Ma was arrested by China for buying US goods? Lol. You are a big clown 😅.

Do you know how many Chinese companies whose CEO buy goods from the US?

You are such a dunce! Lol

Dreamhans1:
I think someone gave this fool a phone and internet. This fool couldn't address a thing of what I'm saying, yet thinks he's so brilliant.
If you have half a brain, you will noticed I never argued for or against tarrif. My take is what will a fool like you do differently if consulted on this issue. Yet a fool like kept littering this internet space with your buffoonery. Without making any point. Mumu

Mumu like should know that in a situation like this instead of criticism like an idiot that you are, you could offer solutions.
But idiot like you kept yapping about Trump right or wrong actions

That is why you are a certified dimwit. 😅😅. Stop asking foolish questions. Asking what I will do different doesn't arise in this matter.

If you are not for or against Trump's tarrrifs, then get the Bleep out of this thread. We are all analyzing how Trump's tarrifs is either good or bad. You came here with a stupid question.

I have repeatedly showed you evidence that Trump's tarrifs is wrong. Yet, you believe you can ask me a useless question. Asking me what I would have done differently as if I have the opportunity to really do anything different.

Dunce!

DaddyCoool:
See the circled below, that's who is shown as your source, Politifact.
The Trump interview was in 1988. US just spent money and lives to chase Sadam out of Kuwait and Japan wouldn't let anyone sell any foreign goods to her citizens!
See this Jack Ma story below. That's how we roll in China!

At this point, you are running around like an headless chicken. Lol.

1. For Japan, I showed you with evidence that Americans sell their goods to Japan. You are a liar just like Trump. I showed you evidence of US companies that operate in Japan. Trump whining that US roads are filled with japanese cars. But he doesn't tell dimwits like you that Japan airspace is populated by Boeing planes that Japan buys from the US. He hides the facts from you that Japan's military is heavily reliant on American military weapons that they buy from the US, in billions of dollars, from F-35 to F-16 fighter jets, to missile defense systems etc. He also doesn't tell you clowns that major banks in Japan are US banks. That Google, Facebook, instagram, make billion of dollars from Japan. Can't you see that you are a pathetic liar? With all of these, you still believe Japan doesn't allow US sell their products in Japan. What a douchebag! I guess the study is right that you have to have a low IQ to believe and support Trump.

2. How does the Jack Ma story help you? What's the relationship with this Jack MA story and the issue being discussed? All your lies have been countered with facts, now you are running around bringing unnecessary points. Go ask China or Jack Ma why he was arrested.

3. For Kuwait, so you believe it is only the US that drove Iraq out of Kuwait? Come, how old are you sef? Look at the coalition countries that drove Iraq from Kuwait. I guess Kuwait should pay each of these countries 25% from the sale of their oil.
Let Trump go and collect 25% from Kuwait na. Open mouth waaaaah!

Pathetic liar!

Dreamhans1:
Gosh! Uncle what will you do differently to effect an effective change. Uncle just went Yaba Yabba Yabba like a slowpoke. Right from the start you've failed the question, we still gave you a second and third chance to prove yourself, still you went berserk off the hinges into delusion, self importance and derisive exposure.

Please if someone else have a better points on what can be done differently and effectively, should please chime in. We are here to learn.

This staff meetings clown just don't get it

A fool asking a foolish question. Lol. I am not the president of the US. I just showed your hypocrisy to the world. Stop asking foolish questions and agree that Trump has messed up.

You claimed China refused to buy more products from the US after they promised to do so, that is why the US imposed tarrifs on China.

I now asked you, what did the EU, Canada, Mexico, UK, Japan, and the other countries did to deserve tarrifs. You went mute.

I also asked you why Trump disregarded the NAFTA with Caanda and Mexico to impose tarrifs on Mexico and Canada, you went mute.

Trump is making you guys look so stupid. Lol. He would have made your job easier if he had imposed tarrifs on only China. You can't defend his actions, you are now asking me a stupid question because I am the president of the US. Lol.

China doesn't have any agreement to buy more goods from the US. You don't coerce countries to buy more good from you. Ode.

The countries he has trade agreement with, he has gone against the trade agreement.

Let these 2 points sink into your empty skull.

There is an ongoing issue at hand. He left it to be asking me what I will do differently. Ode 🤣 🤣

Trump whining about Japanese cars selling in US market. I guess you don't have a car yet. When you want to buy a car, leave Japanese cars (like Toyota) and go buy American cars like Ford. Na body go tell you 😅😅

These things are driven by market demand. Japanese cars are good and strong and this makes Americans demand them alot. Let Trump cry from now till tomorrow, it will not stop Japanese cars from selling very well in the US. People will always go for quality. It's their money.


Since you are in Nigeria, when you want to buy your car, go for American ones. You go hail 😅😅😅

Dreamhans1:
Lol after running like a headless chicken,you finally seem to be having your thought process right. Trump this trump that.
Good it's good you agreed there's a problem and it need fixing.
Secondly, you answer is like good goodluck Jonathan negotiating with terrorist.

Bros we need something strong,don't tell me that's all you've got in that big head of yours. I've been watching you go on and on throwing big big grammar around. Now it's time to come out intellect blazing. Remember that in 2017, trump negotiated with china for china to buy more American goods. China didn't keep up to it's promise. There's precedent.
So what's your next step?
Now don't contradict yourself for all your previous response is on display

Stupid clown. Was Trump's tarrifs on China alone?. He imposed tarrifs on Canada, Mexico, EU, UK, south Korea, Singapore etc. So, apart from China, what has these other countries done to deserve the tarrifs? Has these other countries broken any trade agreement with the US that will make Trump impose tarrifs on them?

Let me show you how stupid you are; Trump imposed tarrifs on Canada and Mexico, against the trade agreement (North America free trade agreement, NAFTA) that he himself signed in his first term. What do you have to say about that?


You are complaining that the Chinese aren't buying more US goods (even though you can't force or corece countries to buy from you), but the trade agreement he signed with Mexico and Canada, he has destroyed it by imposing tarrifs on Canada and Mexico. He wants to eat his cake and have it. Joker!

Please, stop with your lies. How can you say people with first degrees can't afford what their parents could afford? I live abroad and I can tell you for free that young people here are living far better lives. You don't have to lie to make any point. Or you are equating the Nigeria situation to what is happening here? Do you know there are more millionaires and billionairea under 50 years in American today that there were 50 years ago. You people just lie blatantly.

I listened to the video. He mentioned Kuwait. Please, how does the US enable Kuwait sell their oil for the US to be entitled to 25% of proceeds? Please, how does Japan prevent Americans from doing business in Japan? There are many US companies operating in Japan. Evidence has actually showed that people who really believe Trump have low IQ. Because you have to have a low IQ to believe the gibberish the man says. He was whining about Japanese cars selling in the US. But he forgets apple, Facebook, instagram Google, etc have taken over the Japanese media space. Major banks in Japan are US banks. Japan is a major buyer of US military equipment, from fighter jets to missile defense systems. He believes the US should eat their cake and also have it. Joker.

It is actually good. Trump should decouple from the rest of the world. This is what I think he should do; stop importation of goods from other countries (China, Japan, South Korea, EU,Canada and other countries he has imposed tarrifs on). Other countries will stop importation from the US. The dollar will be discarded as the world currency for trade. Then we will see which country will suffer more. Infact, this is what he should have done in his first term. Let American goods be sold only within America while the rest of the world trade amongst themselves. Every America company that has presence all over the world like apple, Microsoft, tesla, Facebook, Google, etc will need to limit their operations to the US alone. Foreign companies will need to leave the US (china alone has about 5000 businesses operating in the US). Let the US and it's currency be on their own while the rest of the world forge economic ties amongst themselves. At least, it will first weaken the US ability to impose economic sanctions on individuals and nations.

Lastly, you said your Google Ai source is more accurate. Okay. See this one from the same Google Ai source comparing wages between generations.

Gosh! Just one question. What will you do differently, and you went on rant of what trump did. Gosh

Lol. Be asking stupid question.

What do you expect me to do whem what Trump is saying is a lie? If I become the president of the US tomorrow and I found out that the reason Trump imposed tarrifs on other countries are all lies, what do you expect me to do?

Well, lets even assume you asked an intelligent question. I will stop the tarrifcs and hold talks with countries that I feel we need to renegotiate our trade agreements.

Dreamhans1:
Ok let's all pretend you are smart. If you are the president of America, what would you do differently?

The first question you should ask yourself is this; is it true that all other countries have been taking advantage of the US in terms of trade?

Is it true that those tarrifs that Trump said other countries charges the US, are those figures really true?

Let me give you an example. Trump said Vietnam charges 90% tarrifs on US imports. So, he imposed 46% tarrifs on Vietnam imports. But is it really true that Vietnam imposes 90% tarrifs on US imports?

The way some of you believe this pathological liar of a president is something else. That was how he deceived you people that he won 2020 election and was rigged and people like you believed him.
Sorry!

Vietnam charges an average of 9.4% tarrfics on US imports. But he told empty heads like you that it is 90% and you all believed him.

That was how he said the US subsidies canada with 250 billion dollars every year. How?

When you can't think like a consultant but be thinking emotionally. Fools like you shouldn't be given oxygen

Actually, Trump is the one crying that other countries are taking advantage of the US. Am I the one that said it? 😅😅.

You and Trump will continue to wail. 😅. If he thinks other countries are taking advantage of the US, then he should ban all importation from other countries and let other countries ban importation from the US. Let's see who will suffer.

Ozuor 😅

DaddyCoool:
You are quoting a non-profit with an agenda, seeking donations! (Says it right there!) See the real picture below.
Minus the post-Covid bump these would have been historically lowest-wage times

Lol. You are really funny. How is that evidence I showed you a non-profit agenda?

Show me articles by economists. Evidence on the ground shows that more Americans are earning far better than years ago.

Let's even assume, without conceding, that Americans are earning less today. Whose fault is that? Every country in this world has suffered inflation such that what you earn today if adjusted for inflation may just be a little higher than wages earned 50 years ago. It doesn't affect only Americans. It affects every country, including Nigeria. So, I don't understand the tears being shed for America.

So, if you feel Americans are earning less today because of China, then they should stop importing from China so we can hear word.

American unemployment rate will NEVER be zero because many people in the country are conditioned for generations to believe that the worst thing anybody can do is to get a job working for someone else. So anything near 2% is full employment.

China-made jobs are when there are massive number of low-wage jobs resulting in fake "low unemployment", compared to America of old when all blue-collar jobs were high-paying jobs.

The way to low unemployment is NOT by shipping all your manufacturing jobs overseas because, don't you know, labour is cheaper over there!

You can say all you want, but the facts are there and it is accessible by all. The fact is that there are more high paying jobs in America today than they were years ago.

DaddyCoool:
Of course America was doing better - there was almost full employment of HIGH-PAYING JOBS!!!
Not wages driven down by made-in-China and cheap immigrant labor!
Of course China didn't point a gun. It was drip, drip, drip, then you wake up one day and everything is made in China!

You cited 1933. See the rate just ten years later.
High-paying jobs o. Not "made-in-China" jobs that you have to live paycheck to paycheck!

Lol. Story. You picked one year and you think America has alway been doing better. Check out the unemployment rate in America since 1960. What is even China-made jobs? Lol. At this point, you are crying more than the Americans.

Was it China that made America unemployment rate to be 7.5% in 1992?


Well, your argument is neither here nor there. If America thinks their unemployment rate is high, then, they should do something about it. But if they feel imposing tarrifs on other countries is what will increase the employment rate, then let's wait and see.

US unemployment rate is 4.2% as at today, which is not bad. But if you want America to have zero unemployment rate, they should hire you so you can give them clues on how to make sure no one is unemployed in America.

At the end of the day, the ball is in America court. They can even decide to stop importation from China. 😅😅

Uncle you are just a Chinese doll

Ode! 😅🤣🤣

Trump is the one crying that the whole world is taking advantage of America. This is just the beginning of more wailing to come. 😅🤣

Even Nigeria is taking advantage of America according to Trump. 😅😅.

China will continue to flood the US with Chinese goods. You and Trump will continue wailing till the end of time. 😅

DaddyCoool:
You did NOT answer the question:

HOW COME AMERICA WAS DOING EVEN BETTER WHEN THEIR SHELVES WERE NOT FILLED WITH "MADE IN CHINA", INCLUDING THEIR FLAGS, NATIONAL TEAM JERSIES, AND ALL SPORTS MEMOBILIA??!!

Na only China follow come?
It is called dumping and has nothing to do with fair trade!

I actually answered your question. You want America to start doing better as the time of old right? (Whatever that means). Well, it wouldn't happen by imposing tarrifs on all other countries.

And I hope you know tarrifs were imposed on many other countries, not just China? Because your fixation on China is laughable. If Trump felt China is the only country that has been reaping off the US, he should have imposed tarrifs on only China.

Companies will not go to the US to start building factories because you imposed tarrifs. These companies will continue to export to America. It is the America people that will pay these tarrifs. I don't know what you people don't get here.

The last time the US imposed these kind of tarrifs, they enter into an economic crisis. 🤣😅.

And who said America was doing better? Lol. What is your definition of "doing better " in this context?

And I hope you know China didn't point a gun at US head for them to accept Chinese products?

Now that Trump wants the US to start doing better again with tarrifs, let's see how it goes. 😅😅

Dandsome:
Until Trump withdraws their forces from NATO then you'll understand

Let him withdraw from Nato na. Who dey hold am? The only time Nato countries has gone to war on the defense of a member was because of America after 9/11.

Let him withdraw from Nato.

And to add, countries should stop using the dollar as the world currency. Build your military industrial complex. Stop buying weapons from the Americans. Remove their military bases from your countries. Stop investing in america. E be like say these Americans don forget the benefits them dey get from the rest of the world.

Which kind mumu report be this? Trade Vinicius for Osimen. Lol.

Osimen doesn't have a place in Real Madrid.

DaddyCoool:
So I have one question for you folks:
HOW COME AMERICA WAS DOING EVEN BETTER WHEN NOTHING WAS MADE IN CHINA??!! Trump lived through those days! He also lived through Covid when there was shortage of ventilators because they were all made in China!
It is a question of FAIRER trade. Something is wrong when you go to a country's supermarket and everything on the shelf is made in China!!

Lol. What a question?. So, you want a world where nothing should be made in China? You seem to believe that China is an economic super power because all companies left the US and moved to China. Lol. Trump has really done damage to you people. 😅🤣.

Let me inform you; China has the largest indigenous start-ups in the world. Most companies that operate in China are home-grown Chinese companies. Most Chinese exports to the US are from Chinese companies. Few American companies have moved production to China or opened another production in China while still having the head office in US but if you think China's economic rise is solely due to American companies moving to China, then you really don't know what's going on.
And maybe you think it is only in America that you find Chinese products. Lol. You find Chinese products everywhere, even in Nigeria.

China carried out some reforms, opened up their markets and foreign investors went in; American and European investors. But it also encouraged chinese investors to starts companies and businesses. You have a problem with that? You should be asking the Americans why companies are finding it easier to do business in China than in America.

And let me inform you; the economic world order is not cast in stone. It is proposed that in 10 years time, China will surpass the US economically in terms of GDP. Since 2014, China has been the largest economy by PPP. Stop harboring this mentality that everything should be produced in the US.

You should direct your question to America and not China. Ask the Americans why they can't produce ventilators. Ask them why almost everything on their supermarket shelf is from China. Did China prevent the US from making ventilators during covid-19? Has China prevented the US from producing anything?

Lastly, if Trump think tarrifs is what will make companies move production back to the US he is then he is the greatest joker of the 21st century (I don’t know if he expects Chinese companies to leave their over 1 billion people market and move to the US 🤣😅). China will continue to export to America It's the American people that will pay the tarrifs. Trump is taxing his own people.

Go look at any products in Nigeria from China. They are produced by Chinese companies in China and not American companies in China (except for some few products like iphone). Is it those companies you expect to leave China and go produce in the US? Or you think the US is the only country they export to? Na wa for una 🤣🤣
