@MAGAVoice Executive Orders cannot run our country.

Friend (& enemies) - @StephenM doesn't believe in due process or the Bill of Rights ... Or follow the rulings of courts.

@StephenM is a liar and fundamentally evil. He should be deported to North Korea, Hungary or Russia.

He hates our nation and democracy.

Now imagine if any country in the world trusts Trump or you, @BillAckman

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

Now imagine China recognizes that the below outcome is the likely outcome.

If you were China, what would you do?

The answer, I believe, is that you would sit down with @SecScottBessent and @realDonaldTrump and make a deal, and you would do so soon.

China is an incredible country with remarkably talented, innovative, hard working, and entrepreneurial people.

China no longer needs trade barriers and tariffs to compete. China does not need to steal IP to create innovative companies or electric cars or to advance AI. They have proven otherwise with Alibaba, BYD, and DeepSeek and more.

Imagine a world in which we do business with China on a level playing field and we cooperate to advance humanity.

What a world that would be.

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

How’s this for a simple approach?

We keep 10% across the board tariffs for the special privilege of doing business with the U.S. to compensate us for the investments we have made in global defense, health and otherwise, and to compensate our country for historically unfair trade practices that have contributed to our massive deficits and national debt.

We keep the pressure on China to resolve materially unfair trading practices, IP theft, currency manipulation, and other practices that have disadvantaged our nation.

We pause reciprocal tariff implementation for 90 days so we have time to engage in private negotiations with other countries, focusing first on those whose tariffs and practices have materially interfered with the competitiveness of U.S. manufactured goods in their markets.

Lastly, we consider that:

(1) it does not make sense to have balanced trade with countries that are smaller than us and that have fewer resources to spend on US goods, i.e., we will forever be buying more from Madagascar than they will buy from us,

(2) attempting to bring back jobs in low-wage manufacturing is not good for America, acknowledging, for example, that Bangladesh and Vietnam are better places to produce textiles and athletic shoes than here,

(3) U.S. ‘exports’ of software, IP, finance, and other services are high value and important sources of trade that are not reflected in traditional measures of exports and imports, and if included in the calculations would make the balance of trade statistics look much more balanced,

(4) our multinationals’ subsidiaries that sell services in foreign countries that are not counted in the balance of trade calculation, but generate profits, value and future dividends are good for America,

(5) a goal of generating a dollar of exports for every dollar of imports is not a useful one, particularly on a country-by-country basis in light of our massively higher standard of living, and having the largest economy in the world.

Lastly, the current trading system, while far from perfect or fair to the U.S., has served us extremely well so we need to be prudent in how we change it so as not to upset the world order in such a manner that it disadvantages our country over the long term.

@MAGAVoice You are unsure who pays tariffs, aren't you?

@MAGAVoice Do you mean how your cult members now like to hang out with Russia, Hungary and North Korea?

[Adam Zand @NoOneYouKnow]

Hey @MAGAVoice ... How are you like the government?

You both have no idea what you are doing or typing.

This theory of it "being a negotiation tactic" is convoluted at best and will wreck the world economy more like.

Thanks Drumpf!

If Countries don’t want to be Tariffed then take the Tariffs you have on America away. It’s that simple

[Adam Zand @NoOneYouKnow]

Oh @TorstenProchnow, you're not the brightest bulb in the Christmas tree lights are you?
How does your 401K look today? Excited about paying those extra taxes this year and for the foreseeable future?

Ready to call @charliekirk11 a cult member who wants to destroy the USA?

[Torsten Prochnow @TorstenProchnow]

President Trump’s tariff strategy is a masterstroke of precision and foresight. Far from the reckless gambles his detractors might claim, these measures stem from a meticulous 400-page report by the US Trade Representative, laying bare every trade barrier America faces globally. It’s a level of detail that proves this administration isn’t playing games—it’s fighting for fairness.

The message to the world is crystal clear: if nations don’t like these tariffs, they can simply drop their own restrictions on American goods. Trump isn’t bullying anyone; he’s demanding reciprocity. For years, foreign governments exploited lopsided trade deals, flooding the U.S. with cheap imports while slamming the door on American products. That era of exploitation ends now.

Compare this to the Biden-Harris years, when America’s trade policy was a laughingstock. Their administration bent over backwards to appease international partners, signing deals that bled jobs and weakened industries. Democrats crowed about global cooperation, but all it brought was a hollowed-out economy and a workforce left to fend for itself. Trump’s approach flips that script—America’s interests come first.

The report itself is a wake-up call. It’s not just a list of tariffs; it’s a roadmap to reclaiming economic sovereignty. Conservatives have long argued that strength abroad starts with strength at home, and Trump delivers on that principle. No more begging for scraps at the global table—his tariffs force a level playing field, plain and simple.

Foreign leaders might grumble, but they’ve got no one to blame but themselves. The fix is in their hands: open their markets or pay the price. It’s a bold stance, one the Biden-Harris crew never had the spine to take. Their weakness invited unfair trade; Trump’s resolve ends it.

This isn’t about isolation—it’s about justice. As someone watching from outside, I see a president who’s done his homework and isn’t afraid to act. The Democrats’ legacy of trade capitulation is being dismantled, page by page, and America stands taller for it.

[Adam Zand @NoOneYouKnow]

They don't care.
They don't know what they're doing.

Hey @MAGAVoice & @AdrianneCurry ...
How is your 401K looking?
OK with farmers needing to sell family-run farms?
OK with car and "groceries" prices going up?
Cool with many of your neighbors being fired?
Leadership 🤔

Tanking the economy.

Is paying extra taxes on almost everything you buy enough winning for you @MAGAVoice?

All the President's money men are morons. Tanking the economy and ruining world trade.

So much winning everywhere you look. 🤔

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

@bostonwriter You cannot imagine or maybe you can the frustrations of waking up and listening to NPR or to Jim and Marjorie. I really need a filter these days of intelligence when it comes to politics. You know I am "unenrolled" but I really can't stand Trump and where he's taking the country.
