    Trump doesn't care, as long as he takes care of himself, his own riches he makes off dumbasses buying his BS MAGA gear and souvenirs, crypto money funneling, and those bribing him big bucks for favors, those paying him thousands to dine with him, and the MAGA politicians pumping his inflated ego by scrambling over each other to kiss his butt.

    In the meanwhile, he gets to golf every weekend and make money off the government by charging them at his resorts. If he gets his ugly mug on Mt. Rushmore, his dream will come true, even if the rest of America crashes and burns. Also, he doesn't have much time left, so crap like addressing climate change doesn't matter to him one bit. If he isn't around, he could care less. The same with helping those in need, and foreign aid. That kind of stuff is beneath him. It's not his concern when others suffer.

    I love how Canada and Mexico somehow dodged all of this and are still getting USMCA 0% tariffs. What a clown show.

    lmao. I was like there's no way Vietnam is charging 90% lolol..

    The tariff on imports from the United States to Vietnam varies depending on the type of goods being imported, as Vietnam applies different tariff rates based on product categories. As of recent data, Vietnam's average applied tariff rate for imports from the U.S. is approximately 9.4%, according to the World Trade Organization (WTO). However, this is a simple average across all goods, and specific products can face significantly higher or lower rates.
    For example:
    • Agricultural products like cotton, soybeans, and tree nuts, which are significant U.S. exports to Vietnam, may face tariffs ranging from 0% to over 25%, depending on the item and any applicable trade agreements or exemptions.
    • Industrial goods, such as machinery or electronics, often see tariffs closer to the lower end of the spectrum, sometimes as low as 0% to 5%, but this can vary.
    • Highly protected sectors, like automobiles, can face tariffs as high as 45% to 64% (though Vietnam recently announced plans to reduce this to 32% for U.S. imports as of March 2025, in an effort to balance trade relations).
