Trump's not going to need to apply tarifs.
Biden has both Russia and China on the back foot with failing economies, and significant social unrest. Both are desperate to make a deal with Trump. Trump only succeeds in negotiation when he can bully his adversary.
If Biden had the faculties, he could have whipped both countries and probably avoided this mess.
Holy cope
Actually, I am really removed from the US domestic situation, and only impacted by the US foreign policy situation.
I'm just trying to point out that he can use his threats to get what he wants, which is the only tactic that he actually knows how to do. Unless he got smarter since his last tern.
The US has been losing its global grip. Especially since the genocide in Gaza the entire global south has fled to align with China.
In the past the US had power to sanction countries such as Afghanistan to their doom. Now those countries have the option to align with China and Russia. The era of western dominance is not growing. It is weakening.
Trump whipped Mexico really well into paying for that wall.
Trump just talks a bunch of shit lol. That's actually why he won. Because he promised everything to everyone. He doesn't have any real plans other than those related to genitals and immigrants. He never backs it up with any evidence either
Trump negotiated really well with Foxconn too. Remember that 10 billion factory they were gonna build thanks to Trump?
In fact, I'm actually willing to bet petrol prices and power prices will increase too. Because suddenly, batteries and solar have less competition and even if manufacturered in US, they can raise their prices
It's just really dumb 😂
Trump talks shit, and he's weak at taking action. That is my point. Here he can likely get away with talking shit, and his opponents will cave.
The wall was bs, but he did get nafta renegotiated by bullying.
He's got a good chance at coming out of RU and CN negotiations looking good, despite not doing anything.
He's nothing but a bully, which might actually work here. If it does, then the authoritarians shithawks are going to look really good.
