He doesn't realize that this is a war that can't win, right?
Maybe all China has to do is to threaten to kick out Tesla and give their gigafactory to byd. The real president is going to be really angry with the sockpuppet

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I hope China claps back with an even higher percentage. See who folds first: the orange trash bag with a country full of people whining that they can't get their cheap Shein and Teemu slop anymore or the country that trade in mass volumes with the entire world and can probably easily trade anything bound for the US to other countries instead.
They stop being effective. At 50% if there is another supplier they will be cheaper and get picked. If you set it to 100% or 200% it doesn't make much of a difference. Trade just stops between the countries unless there is only a single supplier for what you need.

Americans don't just buy Chinese products from Shein and Temu. They buy those products from Walmart, Target, Amazon and essentially every major US retailer.
The US is speedrunning ending their empire on the current trajectory. The world needs to call their bluff to put them in their place.

He doesn’t realize that this is a war that can’t win, right?
He was never smart enough for that.
Let's all unite together as one and put 1000% on America. This is the guy most Americans found best suited to steer the country!
no we didn't. they used anti voter legislation strategically planned over decades to eliminate voters. they are still doing this, just look into the SAVE act which will require people to now have their birth certificate or passport to vote... these if course are not common documents here as you have to pay for both, they can be pricey and time consuming to get.
There’s no way this could go wrong twice, so what the heck, put it all on the green 00.
Trump really doesn't get it does he?
Like powerful people have been assassinated for less

That doomsday clock is a lot more quiet than I expected it to be.
$2B/day huh?
So $7T wiped out of Americans savings will only take 3500 days to pay back. I guess they'll be writing cheques then?
Hopefully they slap back with and then the EU responds is quick to respond to this recent April tariffs. Slap tariffs on US services
