The plan all along is tariffs.
President Trump is someone who has talked about wanting there to be tariffs against pretty much every country in the world on imports from everywhere.
He has always wanted to be tougher on China.
What happened here is...
Essentially, the tariff level that President Trump imposed on China, and then China retaliated, and then the US retaliated, and then it got to a level where it was essentially a trade embargo.
Whether it's 80% or 100% or 135%, those goods are not being transferred between the countries.
And so where they are now is 30% for imports to the US and 10% for imports to China.
That is in the neighborhood of what President Trump had discussed on the campaign trail, which at the time was was roundly rejected by economists and others who said that that would disadvantage American consumers, would make things more expensive, would hurt small businesses.
But now it's like, wow, those tariffs really came down.
This is such a dramatic reduction from where it was.
So in a way, President Trump has, by imposing these so-called reciprocal tariffs that are extremely high, conditioned people to be OK with the tariffs that he he truly has been talking about all along.
If you'll note that.
Let's kill this, Andy.
It's also hilariously funny.
