This high tariff will only be lifted if my country makes a large investment in America.

He is literally asking for ransom! He basically wants to take your country's economy and its people's livelihood as hostages and claims he'll release them if you pay. Like all hostage situations, you don't even know if he'll release the hostages even if you pay him.

These days more of the world is realizing the Emperor is naked though... Which is why BRICS and others are growing fast

Trump has definitely demanded some kind of invisible ransom to strengthen his country's economy. If that ransom is not given, then that country will definitely suffer. Surely this kind of behavior is a kind of attempt to direct force. Most people in the world thought that America was a country that was a model for other countries, especially in terms of economics, human values, and human rights, and was considered a role model by everyone. People are gradually seeing their true colors.

They talk about democracy but for their own profit they will surrender to dictatorship. They have been talking about the much-discussed free trade but now they want to impose a ransom by imposing a law. And when they talk about human rights where they will have profit but if there is no profit, they have no headache about it. If necessary, for the sake of profit, they will declare war unjustly and call it a successful war and legitimize that attack. The real face behind their mask has come out.

What surprises me the most is that they do not hesitate to lie directly to the world. Trump gave 2 weeks before bombing Iran, but he bombed 2 days later without informing anyone. Here the weakness of the Americans has been revealed. It can be said for sure that the world is no longer able to trust the one-sided pressure as before, they now want independence. The rapid growth of the BRICS is a visible proof of this situation.
