Every last penny of the supposed 2 billion made in tariffs this week was paid for by US companies, importers, and citizens. His wilful stupidity knows no bounds.

Do you leave them for 3 months like this psycho? If not, then no.

It's a pump and dump scheme, plain as the nose on your face.

I thought people always wake up before their alarm, if it's a regular alarm at the same time. Your brain just knows and does all the needful for you. I don't think I've been woken by my alarm more than a handful of times in 25 years working.

It'll be fine. Nothing at all to worry about. If it hasn't already expanded to the maximum, which it likely has, it'll crack on with it in the morning when you get up.

This buffoon doesn't understand what tariffs are or what they will do. I wish they'd just call it what it is - import duty.

I work in Chlor-Alkali Electrolysis and some of our biggest customers in the US run their electrolysers for water purification. I don't know their market share but they purify the majority of US water between them.

They buy everything to maintain the electrolysers from us. Nuts, bolts, washers, every last component, as each component is tried and tested to work in our electrolysers through decades of design and testing.

One customer had an arrival today and suddenly had a bill for about 40k more than they were expecting due to the foolish tariffs and the changing of of product classifications on the USHTS. If they buy their spares elsewhere the warranty on their electrolyser becomes invalid, and - as I've seen time and again - cheaper, untested spares will usually result in a catastrophic failure somewhere down the line.

This is just one example, but old moron is messing with all kinds of key industries with his fiddling, and the only people paying are the importers and, eventually, the general public.

Our costs have not changed and we sell at the same price that we are contracted to, but now the companies that purify US water have hundreds of thousands of extra import duty each year if this comedy continues, and they can't just pull out and start again as they have invested tens of millions and there is no suitable US company who can do what we do without decades of investment and research (we've been perfecting our technology since 1970).

Maybe the Fantascist will magic this industry and others into existence, but it will cost at least twice what we can do it for when it is eventually ready, and decades is something he doesn't have. I doubt he has weeks before it all comes crumbling down.

The companies we sell to (to purify water, to make hydrogen and bleach) will undoubtedly charge more for the products they make to compensate, and the US public will foot the bill in the long run.

These tariffs undoubtedly hurt the US the most.

Also, nobody is kissing his ass outside of his cronies. The rest of the world is beginning to see a world without so much US influence, and all by the hand of the worst president in history with his tiny smooth brain and the foresight of a cabbage.

Make rational decisions relating to trade.

I don't know what to tell you. Myself and lots of people I know thought he was blind. I don't know the whole world, but the source and other places tell you that some people thought he was blind. You can find mentions of it and other people people asking the question on Reddit, quora etc. It was more than the people I know who listed these things.

They're not though. If I type Lemmy in Google, about 90% of page 1 is Lemmy from Motorhead .

You're Chilean. You were born in Chile.

CIA copy that predates the CIA by 40 years or so. Wise up.

Eternity. Only happens once in a while, like every couple of weeks.

Cold soup from a can sounds post-apocalyptic. I heat it and have it in a bowl, possibly with croutons or a slice of buttered bread.

That's a big throat.
