Donald Trump says countries "kissing my ass" over tariffs
www.newsweek.com
President Donald Trump has said countries are "dying to make a deal" with the United States following his sweeping tariffs on trading partners around the world.

Sure they are Trump. Sure they are.

I’m sure there’s a lot of squawking from the ambassadors from Heard Island and McDonald Islands but that would be about it.

    This is not happening. What a dumb shit.

    • Canada and Mexico arent.
    • EU just announced reciprocating tarrifs.
    • China basically told him to go fuck himself.
    • Vietnam and Thailand haven’t even responded yet.
    • Taiwan is sort of stuck here and haven’t responded yet.
    • Singapore said they plan on boycotting US goods like Canada if there are further tarrifs.

    That’s where all the US shit comes from for the most part, so this is Trump trying to look big and strong after a major fuck up.

        “These people all come to me, dicks in their hands, BEGGING to remove the tarrifs. What a beautiful word, TARIFFS, I love it. These guys are all weak, but I’m so strong. They’re all stupid, I’m smart. They’re literally rimming my asshole to get rid of these tarrifs…”

        Meanwhile, literally every country has their own press releases saying nobody is answering the phone at the White House, or saying they’ve already responded with heavier tarrifs.

        What an absolute fucking moron.

      I said recently that this wasn’t the real crash…

      This ain’t even the big crash yet.

      That happens when Trump finally caves and removes his tarrifs, and everyone else just shrugs and leaves theirs on.

      It’s obvious as fuck, but so was what happened last week. We’ll see a small bounce as he announces his are being removed, then shit gets real

      We’re halfway there.

      I just don’t understand why it’s not obvious to everyone…
