He has them at the table with a 10% floor. He’ll be looking for concessions beyond tariffs (ie Chinese goods). He doesn’t look weak at all. He’s rewarding good behavior.

Would love to know who in the white house was buying calls before he sent that tweet out.

Yup. Baris went into this on his Monday podcast. He explained how China uses other countries as proxies (Vietnam for instance) to trade cheat the US, and they even throw a road on a random island along with naming it to create a new trade partner that's not China. This is why Trump included McDonald Islands as one of the tariff recipients. It's also why he included vat and other taxing mechanisms in the calculations, because China uses all of these as methods to cheat
It's a complicated game they are playing, and Trump is trying to force them to not play this game anymore.

Everyone else still at 10% base?
That’s what is sounds like. So if you were higher than 10%, you have been lowered for at least 90 days.
No he tacked 10% on existing deals to start with. Its very smart, now they will feel a sense of urgency to get to the table.

When some idiots on here were squawking "what can these poor countries buy from us" they failed to realize china is opening businesses throughout Vietnam, Cambodia, etc to try and do just that. Not this time. Its also why Trump is being so hard on Canada for the same shat including then mailing the fentanyl to the US from there.
China just went full stop on the largest electric car plant in Mexico. You see biden (wink wink) put 100% trariffs on chinese cars.....but not those made in Mexico and shipped to the US. Trump bitch slapped them on that as well.

First off, I am thrilled with the 90-day pause. It goes against everything Trump has talked about for decades, but I am glad someone get to him and intimidated him back to something closer to sanity.
did you even read it? countries are negotiating with us, so yes it worked. you want this to fail so bad
True, pray tell which of the 75 countries begging for a deal "intimidated" Trump

a mistaken assumption. Trump WAS negotiating from a position of strength, now he isn't. This 90 day pause is a bad move that makes him look weak.
Wrong. We have 75 countries begging for a deal and we get an extra 10% in the meantime, that is what winning looks like you idiot.

I cannot stand the EU, I am disgusted I am even associated with them.
That said, thats how much racism is laughable. I hate Europeans right now more than I've probably hated any group of people in my life and I'm white.
