The number imposed on these countries aren't the important thing, but he's just trying to send a message that any attempt of dedollarization will be met with tariff.

That's says a lot about how US has lost its power. About 2 decades ago if any country talked about dedollarisation, they would have gotten bombed. In fact some say one of the reasons why they invaded countries like Iraq and Libya was because they were talking about an Arab focused currency to use for trades!
Now they threaten with tariffs!!!

I am pretty glad to see plenty of people here are anti-trump again. For a while, because he was pro-crypto, everyone here talked about him in high regard, that is what campaigns are for and that is what he did, to get to the power and after he got the power, there wasn't really any need for him to keep his promises and that is why he is not. He can do whatever he wants, he has the congress, he has the senate, he is the president.

We have seen with "one big beautiful bill" that he is doing whatever he wants, it's a terrible bill that adds 3.3 trillion to deficit while cutting taxes for the rich and getting money out of the poor and making 15+ million people lose medical help. So believe me that we are not seeing that kind of president, he is a bad one, and finally people here are seeing that.

Yeah, he just put on a mask for a little while to get the votes. It wasn't just the lies he told the crypto dudes, he lied about pretty much everything else too. Like being the "bringer of peace", ending NATO-Russian war on day one, etc. he started even more wars!

I speculated about it before he got elected and I'm sad that most of it came true
