Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics

The unfortunate reality is that you can't trust anything Trump says.

Even he is not so stupid that he would impose a 100% tariff on computer chips.
Agree on trusting Trump.

There's stupid and then there's just flat out crazy. Trump is crazy. cray-cray. Coo-coo. Full wackadoodle. The Dementia Don. A good reason to never vote for someone over 65 to be President.

On the other hand we are now seeing over and over Trump claiming that he has laid on massive tariffs/sanctions, but when one actually looks at the order there are so many exemptions that it is not much of anything. In Brazil about the only thing that got the tax is coffee.
 
Same with India.....first of all we dont buy much from them......and about the only thing Trump put the tax on is gemstones.

Oh, how wrong you always are, "champ"!


"BRASILIA (Reuters) -As U.S. tariffs on Brazilian goods jumped to 50% on Wednesday, Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva told Reuters in an interview that he saw no room for direct talks now with U.S. President Donald Trump that would likely be a "humiliation."
 
After exemptions laid out in Trump's executive order last week, including on aircraft, energy, and orange juice, the tariff taking effect on Wednesday will apply to just under 36% of Brazilian exports to the U.S. by value, according to estimates in Brasilia.

 
So don't import. It's really very simple.
Really that simple, eh? How much do you think labor workers will expect vs what offshore nations pay their workers? I get the notion of making essential goods right here in America, I get that....but two things will happen....first off, immigrants will get first dibs on hiring, bc business will do anything to cut costs in labor and second, its gonna take years for these jobs to be fully vested in this country, because even the smallest of a product is made over there, such as the minerals needed to produce something as simple as a button or a zipper....be smart, you fool....we're gonna rule the day, this man came into our lives AGAIN.
