  6. The illusion of a quick deal

    This satirical cartoon depicts Donald Trump as a giant orange balloon while Xi Jinping calmly prepares to puncture it. The Chinese text roughly means: "No rush, we'll know what to do."
    The image captures something that many observers underestimated: Trump appeared convinced that a personal meeting with Xi Jinping could quickly untangle the tariff war and lead to a breakthrough. The assumption seemed to be that pressure, unpredictability and direct leader-to-leader diplomacy would force Beijing toward concessions.
    China, however, has often approached strategic competition differently: with patience, long-term calculations and the willingness to absorb short-term costs if larger objectives are at stake.
    The message of the cartoon is not really about tariffs alone. It suggests a broader warning: believing complex geopolitical and economic rivalries can be solved through a single handshake may itself become the biggest illusion.

    "The triple toll of Trump’s terrible tariffs"

    Of course the first toll was that #Trump was lying about #Tariffs all along and no one in either the #RepublicanParty or the #NationalNewsMedia had the backbone or the balls to tell him so

    Cowards, every last one

    Tariffs are not paid by the exporting country

    Tariffs are paid by the importer at the Port of Entry, run by --> Customs <-- and Border Patrol, and ultimately by the US consumer

  15. "Trump's man in Ottawa doesn't understand why Canadians are so frustrated right now"

    "But does Hoekstra understand the frustration of Canadians who feel they don't deserve this treatment from their country's largest trading partner, neighbour and ally?

    "No," he fires back instantly. "We put tariffs on everybody in the world.""

    cbc.ca/news/politics/hoekstra-

    Yeah, it's a biiiig mystery why Canadians are so frustrated right now.

  16. Trump's proposed tariffs aren't "protection"—they're a MAGA tax on the US consumer. Local manufacturers win, but households face massive inflation while global supply chains fracture. Protectionism always passes the systemic costs directly to the citizens. #Economics #Tariffs #MAGA
