How much of the tariff revenue was paid by China, Bam?

Lmk when you got the number. I'll give you a number to multiply it by and if it's anything other than zero we'll be able to hard check that math.

Ask Trump. Bring your calculator!!!

The de minimis exemption has expired. More of a Main Street issue than Wall Street.

But it's one that many Americans will come to understand and loathe very quickly as they realize that sourcing from American sellers doesn't mean American made. It just means that direct from China either goes away or costs more.

Let us know when the deal is actually done... and they aren't attacking Pakistan.

Until then, we still have no big wins on the board

Oh... that's right. Despite saying that the tariffs would lead to signed deals, Trump's backtracking now on the part where the deals need to be signed

Maybe in a couple weeks he'll claim a dog ate the deals. Sure the markete will love that

Britain and India managed to finish their deal already. What's taking Trump so long?

POTUS on trade negotiations:

I could announce 50-100 deals right now because I'm the shopkeeper and I keep the store, and I know what countries are looking for, and I know what we're looking for — and I can just set those terms... everybody wants to shop here.

This guy is a moron
