I havent heard one single congruent statement about tariffs, but they arent reciprocal and that makes him wrong.

Sometimes he says they are punitive, then reciprocal, then national security. Depends on his mood.


It is possible for different tariffs to be different things. OR EVEN for the same tariff to be for multiple reasons all at once.

This comment makes no sense.

I just re-read the entire thread. You and the OP are the only people using the term "reciprocal" outside of quoted text.

You buy their goods, they use your dollar to buy goods they want/need(inventory, payroll, debt service, utility payment, etc). The dollar is the escrow. The issue comes into play when your dollar no longer buys them what they want (e.g. oil in geopolitics)

After all, I'm sure you purchase thousands of goods from them and they don't buy anything from your household.
