What bitcoin community did not know was that we do not need Trump. Bitcoin was $0.003 in 2009 but it has continue to increase. During Biden/Gensler time that was told to be hostile, bitcoin increased significantly. Bitcoin was approved in the United States.
The reason some people go for Trump is because of altcoins which are pump and dump and not a store of value as they do not get to ATH after they become an old coin. We expected something better but what we saw were Trump and Melania coin.
Something I don’t clearly understand with the OP is,
How is the imposed tariff related to the drop in Bitcoin price? I’m not getting that really clear as, Bitcoin isn’t directly put into contexts here and it’s not as though, Bitcoin was the currency that is used in trade between these countries. The USD still feels that space as well as gold, crude oil and many more of those precious minerals. Bitcoin isn’t one of them so, how is it getting this affected.
You’re obviously right when you say, Bitcoin doesn’t need Trump, it didn’t in the last decade and that wouldn’t change now.
