The countries that pay Trump’s tariffs are colored blue on this world map.

Eh. Foreign consumers bear a portion of the direct cost due to our exchange rate adjustment, and foreign countries also bear a portion of the deadweight loss due to reduced exports

This kind of simple truth can only result in MAGAt head explosion.

I heard China were paying them all. Are you telling me I’ve been lied to?

It is amazing that so few Americans understand how tariffs work. The only way that the foreign “partner” will feel the effects is either through the request by the American “partner” to renegotiate contractural arrangements to “share” the cost, or through the reduction of orders from the American “partner”. It is essentially a delayed effect for the foreign “partner”. The immediate clobbering is to the American company who has locked himself into an “outsourced” production chain. Either he eats the costs until he can’t, or he immediately adjusts his pricing of the end product to earn back what he payed to claim his property at the port of entry.

Hahahaaj

What ’bout Hawaii??? *Oh, it’s just some island in the Pacific, actually.*

Neoliberals losing their minds anytime anyone goes against Reaganomics.
