He exempted Canada and Mexico from the tariffs, provided they reach an agreement to revamp the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Lighthizer said the administration is also negotiating tariff exemptions with the European Union, South Korea, Argentina and Australia and expects to begin talks with Brazil.

Um, how many countries are left that we’d be putting tariffs on that make anything that we need/want?

Also, is this to mean that if CAN. & MEX. don’t reach a revised agreement on NAFTA favorable for the regime, then they’ll get tariffs slapped on their goods which will make them even less likely to trade with us? Is that how their “negotiating” works?

To the DNC, DSCC, DCCC, and every Democratic campaign from Governor to Dog Catcher…

Repeat after me: “A tariff is – literally – a tax, so Republicans are raising your taxes!”

Say it loud; say it proud.

It ain’t rocket science.

Trump Admin To Decide Which Countries Get Tariff Exemptions By End Of April

“You heard that right. Everybody’s talking about the newest reality TV show that’s sweeping the nation: ‘Trading Places,’ in which the leaders of each of the USA’s top fifty trading partner nations are sent to the Deal Island, where they will each try to cut the best possible deal with the Grand Deal Maker himself, that is, our own dear President Trump. But, watch out! Because, any one of them that tries to cut too good of a deal for himself will suffer a huge tariff on all of their exports to the USA, along with permanent banishment from the Deal Island. The last remaining leader will be rewarded with a no expenses paid trip to the Trump Resort & Casino of his choice.”

No way that corporate America allows the Dennison regime to slap tariffs on Chinese products. They know that China has the ability to jack us up pretty badly.

Products from Hungary? Well, maybe we’ll survive that. I mean, we can make our own paprika, right?

All fair points. Just a lot of smoke and mirrors and “high drama” and jerking around of everyone.

Love that.

I seem to also be partial at the moment to “the Mulligan administration”.

My God. What is this, the next installment of Presidential Apprentice? Pray tell, will he make final selections live during ratings week?

It’s a Sorting Hat that just tries to put everything into Slytherin…
