Gold and silver…
Here’s a question: What’s to stop the United States from racketeering trade routes? The United States can simply impose a “maritime protection tax” on all goods from different countries…and countries that don’t pay up don’t get to use the main trade routes that the US navy protects.
See what’s happening with Venezuelan maritime trade? That’s just the beginning.
Now you could say that the world would just find an alternative…but there is no alternative…no other country can secure all their trade routes
Sounds reasonable if you abandon moral principles to see the U.S. as a Mafia state running a protection racket.
What would the US do if they used these routes in your scenario? Start blowing up or seizing ships from the EU and China? Even this administration isn’t that crazy.
Wow China, being Iran’s partner, is going to get hit with 25% additional tariffs 
Interesting
Yep, just like Canada faced 100% tariffs on aircraft until panicked CEOs from all over the US frantically screamed at the White House “Can’t you get that idiot to shut up?” and they had to hastily start scuttling backwards.
It’ll never pass the Senate and Trump will veto it, but it’s still important symbolically, and for the mid-terms. Now we have campaign fodder for all the sycophants who voted to inflict pain on the price of eggs.
Wasn’t the intention to tariff China and limit transshipping through countries like Canada, and to leverage reciprocal tariffs to manage trade deficits?
It was a good show by the congress, but let’s see how the senate does on their vote.
Anyway, doesn’t matter on the tariffs as Trump can veto it as the congress would need a 2/3 win to avoid a veto
And let’s see what tantrums we will see from the Orange turd on those Republicans who voted against him 
It’s almost like different laws relating to different topics allow different things. Weird.

Looks like this chucklefuck has positioned himself to profit too. Profiting from 9/11 and now this. 
Maybe Trump would purge him, but we all know his connections by now…what a shit show.
The US has been owned badly by China in this trade war. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
And no economic benefit to speak of from data so far.
The US has been owned badly by China since its trade war with China started thirty years ago.
