Trump is a leader

Most countries have not be fair to them in terms of tariff and he is just responding as a responsible leader.

Honestly the US are the victim here. He is not even doing a reciprocal he is doing half of what the other countries are doing to the US.

This is leadership.
Even if it is true, the US does not need his buffoonery. The man has just destroyed the US economy.

There are mechanisms in place if you feel your economy is adversely affected by the protectionist policies of another country. It is call the World Trade Organisation.

You submit your complaint to them. If it is confirmed that allegation, you now permitted to place tariff on imports from that country equal to the amount you're affected.

Let's say the EU places a 10% tariff on US made cars. Export of US cars to the EU is $10bn. The WTO will give you the go-ahead to place tariffs on $10bn worth of EU imports into the US. You choose the products. It does not necessarily need to be cars.

This prevents a trade war.

He has destroyed the US economy. The economy is headed for a recession followed by a depression. He is a disaster.

You should be concerned about Nigeria. We have very high tariffs but I am certain that you have never complained about it. You are happy when Nigeria makes trillions from tariffs but pain when the US does the same?

Why haven't you complained about tariffs killing the Nigerian economy? I am certain you know nothing about the tariff system in your own country or the meaning of reciprocal tariffs because if you do, you will not be complaining.
Recipocal tariffs means that the US is collecting tariffs on goods from countries that tariff US goods. So if you remove the tariffs against US goods, the US would remove theirs
It's that simple.

Countries on the chart displayed by Trump The doctrine of reciprocity is allowed and highly to the success of any nation in international politics.

Trump is just applying the doctrine, perhaps to force down tarrifs imposed on its goods and services by other nations of the earth.

President Trump is not Joking at all at al!

One Undisputable fact about Trump is that He Loves His Nation and is not afraid to take bold courageous decisions to put his Nation First before Forming helper of the world while your people are in tears.
Some of you I don't really know the type of brains you have. very dumb one. i swear.

Enough of playing Big Brother roles for the rest of the world.

Btw, its been long I heard or read about BRICS in the news.

Because BRICS is no longer needed to dismantle the US. Trump is doing the lords work.

Signed, sealed, delivered to 185 countries of the world.

The minimum U.S. reciprocal tariff across board is 10%, while 14% is the U.S. reciprocal tariff imposed on Nigeria... That's within manageable limits. The small Southern African country of Lesotho got whipped with the highest reciprocal tariff of 50%! The European Union got 20%. We'll see how things pan out in the medium to long-term.
The world is playing towards a dangerous trend of inflation ...They could be general rise price of goods and services produced...America might be hit most before the 2nd quarter of next year

Indeed, the U.S. is already headed for a major economic recession later in 2025 as projected by analysts based off of cyclical economic indices.

@grandstar

I'm glad that just like me, you too have emphasized on this same thread about the impending economic recession (and depression) which economic analysts have also projected to occur later in 2025. But with these back-and-forth global trade wars instigated by Trump, the U.S. economic recession will come in faster than expected. Folks who have the ability to discern the opportunities and threats from past cyclical economic recessions and depressions must take positions to bullet-proof themselves from here on out. Period.

Succinctly stated.

You've spoken well like a professional economist and analyst.

If you follow my discourse on this trump high handedness, one thing I try to let people know is this. The US economy is shrinking not because of immigrants taking jobs. Its because the world is buying China 🇨🇳

I can bet that everything in your house is from China.
The furnitures
Kitchen utensils
Electronics.

US needs to strategies how to make affordable products and services.
