Difrent:How can Russia be tarriffied when they are heavily under USA sanctions for the past 3 years. Besides US imposed Russia before na a 34% tarriff. Russia is not on the list probably, because the both countries are not having any trade relationship for now. |

fritiyo:Tariffs like thos are what caused the great depression 100 years ago. This is why we should teach history in schools because those who don't know the past are destined to repeat it. |

America economy is the number one sustainer of china economy because of what they export to the US, then china restrict the importation of American products, would u allow that to continue? |

foleskay:Dream on ![]() Below texts are from Americans on Reddit. China holds approximately $176 billion in U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), accounting for about 5.7% of its over $3 trillion in foreign exchange reserves. While this is a significant amount, it is relatively small compared to China’s holdings of U.S. Treasury securities, which totaled $760.8 billion as of January 2025. Therefore, China’s capacity to disrupt the MBS market by selling off its holdings is limited compared to its potential influence on the U.S. Treasury market. China is one of the largest owners of mortgage backed securities…they can dump and cause chaos It's not just the bonds... read up on Xi, his background, and his upbringing. |

foleskay:Go and educate yourself. The US cannot isolate China. You think China is a small fish? China already has huge business relationships with many other countries so they can do without the US. |

foleskay:This is not about power or respect, businesses are gonna get ruined, things are starting to get expensive, it's the consumers that will suffer this nonsense. I'm also interested to know why Nigerians or people like you are enthusiastic about the power play when it comes to issues like this and not the actual impact on common people like me and you |

fritiyo:If China agreed with you on that point, they wouldn't retaliate against Trump action. We will soon find out. Trump reversed the tariffs for other countries unexpectedly because he realised USA was about to get fvcked. |

Nnamdipapa:You are joking I guess. You will never see an American citizen going to China to live and become a citizen. But Chinese flock like chicken into America and they don't want to leave, what does it tell you? You won't understand what Trump is doing, whatever China knows or own today they copied from Americans. It used to be where Americans got cheap labour, China can't match America in any of those even in technological advancement and health care. |
