That why there are things called TRADE DEALS as a result of them and why we’re not in a recession because of a trade war. He didn’t backtrack, he used the overton window making the most outlandish demands and then compromises for a more favorable deal. Idc if you don’t like his policies, but the fact you guys forget he does this EVERY SINGLE TIME and y’all still don’t understand really amazes me

on many occasions, the backtrack came first and the “deal” came later. In addition, framing the tariffs as a major govt revenue source implies that he wasn’t intending for them to be a bargaining chip initially. they weren’t characterized as temporary or transient and we don’t forget that he does this all the time lmao. that’s why we’re angry that he’s pumping and dumping the market again

I’ll admit I’m surprised at how resilient the economy has been thus far. But I think you should look at the lengths to which you’ll go to glaze a guy who has bankrupted multiple companies. It’s not like he’s got a spotless business record

That “backtracking” is called negotiations with a path to a deal. I agree that I don’t like the tariff talk as revenue but he loves putting up a front hoping other countries don’t call his bluff but they can’t since he is the one with the leverage on most deals. That’s why Japan, South Korea, most of SE Asia and the EU have reluctantly came to the table
