David Pakman @davidpakman.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Trump promised to make everything cheaper. Now he's slapping tariffs on Mexico and Canada.

Protect Democracy @guarddemocracy.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Trump is a kindergarten economist. Still so incompetent. Now wait for: 1) inflation 2) counter moves (similar tariffs increases on U.S.) 3) trade wars (eyes will be different on U.S. now) Tariffs is a sign of crisis. Pretty odd since U.S. has the best economy in the world after 4 Biden years. 3100

John Franklin @johnfi.bsky.social · 26/11/2024The US imported 4.3 million barrels of crude oil per day in July from Canada.
