Back

And here we go again…

#Trump AGAIN manipulates the #market thus time by pausing the #Mexico #tariffs for a month.

Also he continues to conduct #ForeignPolicy affairs on social media.

For crying out loud, like a drunk toddler & for seemingly no reason at all, #Trump has now reversed his #tariffs on #Canada.
Trump said Thurs that he would allow BOTH #Mexico & Canada to avoid tariffs on most exports to the #US for 1 month, specifically products subject to the #USMCA, the #trade pact he signed in his first term.
The move came less than a day after he granted a 30-day reprieve to #automakers, & hours after announcing a pause on Mexico’s tariffs.
#economy #instability #geopolitics

Now he has rolled #Canada into the #Mexico pause without any explanation as to why. He paused the Mexico #tariffs after speaking to Mexico President #ClaudiaSheinbaum. Utter #chaos.

#Trump has played an inexplicable game of brinkmanship w/the North American #economy this week, as he levied stiff tariffs on Canada & Mexico, then suddenly rolling some back.

#Trump’s maneuverings have sent #stock #markets tumbling & sowed anxiety & confusion among industries that depend on trade w/ #Canada & #Mexico, which account for >¼ of #US imports & nearly ⅓ of US exports.

Trump signed #ExecutiveOrders authorizing the pause on the tariffs.
