Biden just tweeted “I just imposed a series of tariffs on goods made in China: 25% on steel and aluminum, 50% on semiconductors, 100% on EVs, And 50% on solar panels. China is determined to dominate these industries. I'm determined to ensure America leads the world in them.” https://x.com/potus/status/1790385220983677016?s=46 Joe is delivering for the middle class. American companies can’t compete with China so Joe steps in and slaps tariffs on Chinese goods to protect America’s middle class from Chinese made cheap EVs and bad semiconductors. He promised to revive American manufacturing and he’s delivering as he promised. Joe is for the working class. He just gets too busy helping our greatest ally and the only democracy in the Middle East Israel defend themselves against babies and women. Also, don’t forget that China, Russia and Muslims are bad but America and Israel are the good guys.
What are you smoking? Said tariffs will impact supply chains. Since we produce NOTHING domestically, that's 100% tax on the American peeps. This in turn will cause Powell 3 months from now to jack up the rate a couple of points. How about building the infra here before doing all this stupid crap. Typical Democrat policy. Cut the branch that you sit on before moving over.
Trump imposed tariffs on China too. Biden had actually criticized him for that.
Agreed, but that was precovid, when you could buy cheap metal from Russia for example and inflation was flat. Now you have less options since we're back to "axis of evil". People will definitely feel it harder. Avg car now is 30000$ (same car was 17000) back then. Wanna guestimate how this price will look 3 months from now?
So he is copying Trump, will the left like him or call him a racist?
It’s not the same. Trump hates the Chinese. Biden is not racist.
Biden is a racist, what are you snorting?
I can’t tell if OP is being serious or being sarcastic
Biden is an idiot
America just sanctioned America.
Let’s go Brandon ! Lock trump up! 4 more years! Maga!
America was pushing free trade for decades, now it’s pushing tariffs. What’s changed?
China is getting ahead. So America is changing the rule of game. Free trade is great when you’re on the top. Terrible when you’re not. Everything on the tariff list are something China are doing better. Of course, they still accuse China of dumping with state subsidized products to make the tariffs sound reasonable.
Biden. You have the worst president since George W Bush.
Pretty sure any sitting president would have put tariffs on Chinese imports. It’s a bipartisan issue.
Of course, it’s bipartisan. It’s one big club.
