CNN — President Donald Trump is set to impose an astounding 104% in levies across all Chinese imports on Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced on Tuesday. This comes on top of Chinese tariffs that were in place prior to Trump’s second term.

China was already set to see tariffs increase by 34% on Wednesday as part of Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs package. But the president tacked on another 50% after Beijing didn’t back off its promise to impose 34% retaliatory tariffs on US goods by noon Tuesday, adding an additional 84% in duties.

Earlier Tuesday, China’s Commerce Ministry said it “firmly opposes” the additional 50% tariffs on Chinese imports, calling it “a mistake upon a mistake.” The ministry vowed to escalate its retaliation on US exports.

He really just wants to ruin the world economy... and it's gonna hit the US harder than any other country. And yet Maggots still think he is good for their country, when he is openly working for Russia at this point, since nothing of this hurts them. The old US is sadly lost :traumatica:

I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob

I love how he reminds his voters every day that when you do clownery, the clown comes back to bite 

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

China is the one country that can stand toe to toe with America in an economic battle. They aren't going to back down. By Christmas they'll have reciprocal tariffs on each other of 10,000%.

I’m currently at the gym and Fox News is still trying spin this as “temporary pain” and “protecting workers” when we can all see that this nothing but Trump’s ego getting tested. 

The US is ****ed
