On Friday night, #Trump had set that tariff at 10%, using a provision in a #law that allows him to impose an across-the-board tariff for 150 days unless #Congress agrees to extend it.

“I, as President of the United States of America, will be, effective immediately, raising the 10% Worldwide Tariff on Countries, many of which have been “ripping” the U.S. off for decades, without retribution (until I came along!), to the fully allowed, & legally tested, 15% level,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Five percent per day is just loansharking.

@Nonilex Donald Trump v. The World

Temper tantrum meme. Shouting "15% tariffs" at a group of people. One of them responds with a thumbs up and the group goes back to ignoring the toddler.

Looking forward to all those American loving Republicans twisting themselves into "defying a SCOTUS ruling is totally fine, NBD!"

@Nonilex While Brendan Carr is a dummy, Trump really ups the ante and is just a plain fool.

#Trump posted that he was making the decision “Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday,” by #SCOTUS. 🙄

Cuz, you know, he told us he has excellent reading comprehension 🤣.

Trump post: Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday, after MANY months of contemplation, by the United States Supreme Court, please let this statement serve to represent that I, as President of the United States of America, will be, effective immediately, raising the 10% Worldwide Tariff on Countries, many of which have been “ripping” the U.S. off for decades, without retribution (until I came along!), to the fully allowed, and legally tested, 15% level. During the next short number of months, the Trump Administration will determine and issue the new and legally permissible Tariffs, which will continue our extraordinarily successful process of Making America Great Again - GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

@Nonilex it’s great to know that our nation is in the capable hands of a moody, vindictive middle school girl.
