Trump’s latest tariff moves are shaking markets and roiling our relationships with allies, but Trump doesn't seem to care. Could there be a method to his tariff madness? https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-tariffs-mexico-canada

@georgetakei no. No there isn’t. He doesn’t understand that countries are not companies and that you treat with them differently. Not everything is a financial transaction.

He probably doesn't know how McKinley's presidency ended. 🙄

Maybe Trump and his bullies (<<< Sorry; "buddies" 😉 ) are smart enough to abuse (Again! "use") tariffs that way.

Maybe.

If so, even more "😱".

@georgetakei I don't think the term “allies” applies anymore. A US signed treaty is now worth as much as a Trump university diploma, it's just expensive toilet paper. Even if the tarifs would be undone, it will take decades to restore trust…

@georgetakei once you realize that everything he does is to benefit Russia, it all starts to click and make complete and perfect sense.

@georgetakei if you want to understand him, you will have to learn how crooks set up a scam.

@georgetakei Thank you Canada for punching back. Not even China is standing up to our bully. China added tariffs to Canada to support Trump. I guess we are seeing who really are the stronger and more capable countries!

@georgetakei there is no method, only madness.

A 𑐴𑐶𑐟𑐶 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
