The Orange Moron is doing a really good job at uniting and integrating former allies against him
“But we certainly can’t be accused of being unfair. Switzerland has unilaterally abolished its industrial tariffs, we have no pharmaceutical tariffs. US companies can export their products to Switzerland duty-free,”
And in the same quote:
we have been doing exactly what President Trump wants for a long time
And I believe her.
So how did CH get on that list?
US trade delegate Jamieson Greer has called on American companies to report unfair trade practices by partner countries
So some businessperson with a grievance decides what gets onto some government list? Truly an oligarchy.
That said I’d like to know a bit more about the whole (yet another) international debacle.
I guess they just didn’t like the trade deficit because they think it means “losing”
Also Trump views a VAT as an unfair tariff even if it applies equally to both domestic and foreign companies. He’s completely dishonest, so don’t expect any logic(I don’t buy that he’s that dumb)
Trump is the epitome of the Republican sentiment “Unless I have privilege I’m being oppressed”
I wonder what the plan is when one oligarch needs the country’s product and another wants the country tariffed. I guess whoever has the larger bribes wins?
It is as if the Cheater in Chief is turning everything to shit that he touchess. I can’t wait for the 30’000% tariffs on Swiss gold or whatever his idea will be.
Will the Swiss drop neutrality like Ireland?
When we have absolutely no allies left except Russia, America will truly be great again.
Not sure I’d call Russia an ally rather than a puppetmaster
Though the US has always had a certain tendency to act similarly after WW2 …
This
A comrade-in-shit rather.
Trump won’t be able to wreak enough havoc in all his remaining life to make it possible for Russia to be a puppetmaster for the US. Make it a bit more like Russia is the worst scenario.
That’s good because it means there won’t be anyone in the way of a socialist revolution, comrade!
Can’t have a trade deficit if you don’t have trade.
-“Trade deficit went down 50%!!”
(Trade went down 60%)
Time for someone to leak a list of billionaires’ Swiss bank accounts.
I’d prefer if someone managed to Robin Hood those accounts, instead.
Where are our right wing assholes now who said they would prefer trump? Trump would be better for Switzerland? Fucking SVP morons
Aeschi was recently defending trump, still. Disgustingly antidemocratic.
I mean sure, why the fuck not? Who’s left at this point?
These trade moves have the same implicit assumption. That US trading partners can’t buy the same thing elsewhere for a cheaper price. Feels like this is a problem that solves itself.
Art of the deal, donny boy.
2000% tariff on American made watches to Switzerland
Our spineless politicians are going to react well to this, I’m sure.
