I saw he was throwing random numbers around at different countries last night. He said 30% on Bosnia, 32% on Indonesia, 35% on Bangladesh, 25% on Tunisia, 30% on South Africa, 40% on Laos. It seems like a bit of a disaster, does he know what he’s doing? Most of those countries probably don’t do much trade with the US any way so they’ll probably just ignore his petulant statements as it won’t affect them. Trump also delayed tariffs until August 1st. It just seems a bit unprofessional.

My greatest joy is that, the world and most people are now enlightened, and can easily tell the difference between a person that spreads propaganda, and a person that is fighting for something meaningful, though I'm not referring to this case. I think Trump is overreacting, and his actions most times do not even make any sense. Those tariff values for the countries you mentioned are literally too massive, and it truly defines an emperor. The US is making BRICS get stronger by the day, so those tariff threats won't help matters.
