Even if the conditions were harsh, the anchor shouldn't fall on its own. That far offshore it would've been secured.

I'm admittedly not a genius when it comes to foreign exchange/international currency dynamics, but unless the Yuan became the reserve currency I think it would be a positive change for most of the world.
If every country could come up with a way to personally annoy him (refuse to give away their largest territory, build taller buildings all around his hotels, call him a silly name, etc.) all the tariffs would essentially cancel each other out. If everything's tariffed, nothing's tariffed.
I don't have answers, sorry. Maybe just remind others who can vote that they need to and that any pain they feel is solely a result of that dumbass being elected, no matter who he tries to blame.
Do Americans not have the phrase "everything's on the table"? Or to "shelf something"?
You have a lot more say in what your country does than any of us being threatened do…
Somewhere around 3 and a half to 4, depending on if you're using calendar mooches or clock mooches.
They're clearly just weird parents awkwardly waving at their children.

A supermajority didn't vote against him either, and a plurality of eligible voters didn't give enough of a shit to even show up.
I bet he'll end up sprinkling in a handful of very specific exemptions. These are what we need to slap export taxes on. Doesn't need to be much, but match his 25%. At best it'll hammer them where they need it, at worst it'll keep things fair for all our exporters.
Yeah but it only really works if it's targeted. Threatening blanket tariffs on countries that represent 60% of all imports (EU, China, Mexico, Canada) takes a bit of the impact away, it's unlikely domestic production could handle all that. Even if it could, why wouldn't American companies raise their prices as much as they felt they now could?
Exactly, clearly they'll still pay for it if it's important enough to exempt. In Canada's case we could give Alberta the extra revenue just so they won't get too cranky.
