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 🤣😅😂

Trump has done what is necessary and he only suspended the tarrifs for some especially those countries who didn't even retaliate to his tarrifs so its clear he's doing this as he deems fit not because of anybody.

China got slammed for retaliatory tarrifs and will pay a bigger price when America big techs switch to India and Mexico.

China will regret their misplaced arrogance and treachery to their longest standing strategic partner.

U are decieving urself. Iphones were never been made in China under Steve jobs and only started in China under this new guy.

India have mass labour and skilled enough to build iphones. even Mexico can do same.

The Mega factories are being built and China is being replaced very soon then they can brag with the 5m quatum mechanics and knockoffs nobody gives a damn about that shit and their inferior technology.

U China worshipers are the dumbest people ever u can't see u are being made redundant and played by China.

Trump is calling out the bullshit and everyone including Europe knows he's right and only him has the guts to do it.

Trump is reversing the redundancy and trade imbalance. u lames asses can keep eating from China spoon.
Ozuor! 😅🤣😂. It was Steve jobs that moved iphones production to China in the 1900s. Steve Jobs died in 2011. So, you believe it was after 2011 that Steve Jobs died that Apple began producing iphones in China? Ode 😅😅.

The outsourcing of iphone and mac laptops production to several Chinese manufacturers began with Steve Jobs.

You said production is being moved to India and Mexico. But Trump still imposed tarrifs on these 2 countries.

I know how you feel. You just can't believe that China is overtaking the US economically. Kpele. 😅.

China is already the largest economy by purchasing power parity (PPP). Economists believe that 5 to 10 years from now, China will be the largest economy by GDP.

You go cry! Nor worry 😅🤣😂

Americans imports more from China. And their tarrifs on Chinese goods are higher. So Americans will pay more.

China imports less from the US and their tarrifs on US imports are lower. So the Chinese will pay less.

I am not anti China I don't hate China, I only hate unfair practices. The cheap labour is great and adds alot of jobs are revenue to China but the trade has to be balanced. Things have to be done right.

China can't flat ban foreign companies and want Huawei to dominate Europe , Asia and Africa and when we give them a half of their treatment they cry foul.
Which company did they flat ban and why is the trade deficit. If a buy from you does it mean you must buy from me always? Besides is it not the same USA that banned China from buying chips from them. Don’t you know they were the highest importer of US chips?

Any company can operate in China but they must adhere to Chiness laws. There are alot of US companies in China incase you don't know. Regarding the trade deficit, It's not a must that China must buy from US. US decided to import alot of things from US because they are very cheap not because China forced US to. China as a country have the right to source for cheap products in other parts of the world. Beside you don't know that China was the highest importer of US micro chips before US decided to ban them from buying them. You cannot refuse to sell what people want to them and try to force them to buy what they don't want.

Obviously they put laws that make it next to impossible to setup a business there and they banned Facebook, twitter and Google. It is fully banned.


if u don't want to import more to balance trade them tarrifs hit to balance the deficit.

The chip sales is because China steals technology and then improves in it and calls it their own. They don't build from scratch.

They retaliated to show the US that no one country has monopoly on the use of tarrifs. They have said they wouldn't increase tarrifs any further.

I responded to that.

As for denigrating the US, I never did. I am against Trump and his trade policies and not the country (the US). Trump is not the US. He is not an emperor. He lords over no one here. He is making the US a laughing stock with his back and forth, eractic and unpredictable trade policies which is currently affecting small business owners here.

So, I didn't denigrate my countries (US and Nigeria). Now, run along. Go find something to eat.

Trump is making rich mans mistake.

Underestimation of Chinese warfare.

US import of Chinese good worth $439 billion a year

Chinese import of US good worth $139 billion a year

Every taxes imposed by US government on imported goods would automatically be transfered to the consumers in US by the importers.

So automatically and indirectly President Trump is taxing the Americans.

Americans are happy thinking those tariff is on Chinese government without realizing that they are the ones paying for those increment.

Americans are dumber than people think, all those Harvard and Yale school knowledge could be good in theory but in practical they are just dumb at the end and they are too coward to open up their mouth.

The true freedom is in Nigeria and Nigerians are brave to lash out without mincing words.
In their dumbness they could procure a working environment. Oya you and your smart countrymen do the same for your country.

Trade war isn't nice.
The average American works less but earns far more than the average Chinese. This increase in tariff will affect both countries .China will be hit the hardest but you'll never know cos their government will play it down in cover ups. You'll only get to hear the effects on the Americans more because of the free press.
