The Trump tariffs

I didn't know that about Rolls-Royce. Admittedly, I was mostly focused on Honda and Hyundai.

So, after a little digging, this is a reference to Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC, which is the jet turbine and propulsion RR, not the automaker, which was spun off in the 70s and went though ownership by Vickers, VW Group, and now BMW.

It might be the best thing Trump has done. Addition by subtraction. It's also a great tactic to see how nations respond - genuine feedback versus lip service. It's DOGE on a global level. Anything against the globalists, i'm all in.

Agreed. The fact that his punitive tariffs are lower than the existing tariffs these countries have against the US shows how moderate he is being, and how unreasonable these countries are for trying to retaliate, when they are already the ones with the heavier tariffs.

Yep.

Trump is also a master of attention. Attention is currency.

He brings people into the game, in this case, nations. It puts the spotlight on USA which I believe is his number 1 goal - to be dominant on the world stage. If you're going to MAGA, how else would you do it? But no doubt for the American public it's wait and see if the trickle down actually is real.
 
It's gamble, it's going to cause some short term pain for longer term huge gain but the public is fickle especially with half of the country against him by default. If it doesn't show results quick it's going to be a problem simply because of the idiot mob who can't see past that they have to pay an extra dollar for something today....

I'll say one more thing about this that gets overlooked. Paying less taxes and paying more for goods is advantageous to everyone who actually pays into the system, the only people it hurts over the long term are people who are leaching off the system.

Apparently Russia is missing on the printed tariff.

A White House official told NOTUS that Russia is not on this list because sanctions from the Ukraine war have already rendered trade between the two countries as zero.

And for Canada and Mexico omits, the previous fentanyl tariff levels will remain in effect so there is no update

Also, Trump recently tried to push Europe to lift Russia sanctions. EU leaders said "no".
