What has Trump done now?

[old man emu]

Jeezuz! I'm agreeing with GON!

 

Australia exported $640 million worth of steel and $440 million of aluminium last year to the United States. In the scheme of things that's not much. However, what about the agricultural exports? That'd be where we will be hit if the tariff is 25% on everything.

It will be on EVERYTHING that WE export to the USA BEEF Lamb etc. Keep up with the Latest on this.

   USA hamburgers are full of good Aussi BEEF The USA can't produce enough of it and haven't been able to for ages.. It will just put the PRICES UP on beef Lamb.  is a different matter. WE will have to find other Markets. This has far reaching effects across many parts of Australia.    Nev

Whoa!! Hasn't anyone told the Don that the price of good ol' hamburgers is going to skyrocket, once he whacks a 25% tariff on Australian (and Canadian and Mexican) Beef? That's going to hit home, right at the White House dinner table!!

But Trump personally doesn't pay for anything. 

Bet he doesn't even pay for the Tesla that he's "buying" in order to help his paymaster to get over all those nasty lefties who are boycotting his products.

Europe just announced tariffs on 28 billion of US imports.

It sure looks like a swift kick in the nuts for those lovers of Hardley-Dawdlesons in the EU! 😢
