The UK will now jettison numerous non-tariff barriers. This could help U.S. ethanol producers by $700 million and Ag and beef producers by another $250 million.
In return, UK sees tariffs on autos and steel reduced from 25% to 10%.
Its bizarre that Trump didnt eliminate the 10% baseline tariff entirely, given that the US runs a small trade SURPLUS with the UK.
Its also important to note that this "deal" only had to navigate the flat 10% tariff and not the "reciprocal" tariff ....AND YET IT STILL TOOK ONE-THIRD OF THE 90 DAYS BEFORE JULY 9TH.

And it hasn't been finalized.
Just words . . . and of course, the "stable" genius could always change his mind.
I've notice that the Oski's of the world are easily impressed.

desperately trying to unravel the mess he got into is more like it. But I thought these higher tarriffs would lead to more robots building stuff in the us or is that out the window now? So just 5 dolls now instead of 30? Quite the plan here.movielover said:bear2034 said:BREAKING: πΊπΈπ¨π³ United States cuts tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30% for 90 days.

"Quite the plan here."
The plan is to make billions through stock market manipulation with no SEC investigation.

Republicans: Retailers should eat the tariffs and not pass the increases on to consumers.
Also Republicans: We can't increase corporate taxes because corporations will just pass the increases on to consumers.
If corporations are able to eat the tariffs, they are able to eat the taxes. The reality is that they won't eat either.

This is what a MORON does as President.
The EU's tariffs on the United States average 4.8%
And Switzerland has ZERO tariffs on the United States.
Zero.
You're inability to think for yourself is stunning.

He's moving fast, not DC foot dragging.
We have a $1.2 Trillion trade deficit, and the EU has countless trade barriers, some in place since WWII. Some argue that the Marshall Plan construct is still essentially in effect, but I'm not deep in the weeds ferreting that out.
It's clear that the EU bureaucrats use delay and obfuscation to keep the game moving along, just like the DC bureaucracy. Play games until the Progressive Democrats come back into power, pay off their buddies, and move along. They promise to increase defense spending, and never did until President Trump rightfully lambasted them in term one. (Attorney Harmeet Dhillon in the Civil Rights Division has found the same delay tactics, has moved out over 100 Woke (some crying) attorneys, and is cutting away the nonsensical dead wood.)
The Autopen lost, and your buddy Gary Cohn is gone.
FTR, your daily name calling at those you disagree with appears pathological.
P.S. In 2019, the EU's game included not negotiating agriculture barriers, a major component of US trade.
"EU tariff and non-tariff barriers on pork limited U.S. pork exports to the second largest pork-consuming market in the world to less than 4,000 metric tons in 2017. The United States sends more pork to countries such as Chile, Costa Rica, El Salvador and Singapore than it does to the EU. According to Iowa State University economist Dermot Hayes, opening the EU market to U.S. pork would result in billions of dollars in new exports to Europe."

We had a $236 Billion trade deficit with the EU last year.
We haven't had a surplus with the EU in its current make up since 1991.
Who cares?
You still haven't figured out why we have such a trade deficit.
It's in no small part to a strong dollar and the animal spirits of the U.S. consumer and businesses.
Your command of basic economics is about as horrible as Chump's.
It's pretty clear to everyone here that you have no clue about what you spend all day "cut and pasting" here.
