As a citizen of a devolving red state I’m asking, pleading with the rest of the world to do more harm to these trash humans earnings.
This is a blast from the past when Bush went for steel tariffs
In retaliation, the European Union threatened to counter with tariffs of its own on products ranging from Florida oranges to cars produced in Michigan, with each tariff calculated to likewise hurt the President in a key marginal state. The United States backed down and withdrew the tariffs on December 4.

Difference is that Trump doesn’t give a shit about support for the next election. He only cares to please Putin.
Bush had no russian handler
He did have a sort of handler co-president though, so that hasn’t changed
Yeah. He had Cheney as his handler. The same Cheney who was on stage talking about great Harris is.
I’m okay with republican states being harmed. They reap what they sow.
As an American, I absolutely love this.
Reconstruction ended a century too early.
The American Chamber of Commerce to the E.U. said the U.S. tariffs and E.U. countermeasures “will only harm jobs, prosperity and security on both sides of the Atlantic.”
You don’t say…
My dude, what you forget to see is that this harms the EU a little, it harms the US a little. The same goes for Canada, goes for China, goes for Mexico, but it will add up for the US.
In the meantime, the allies you try so hard to alienate are teaming up and using this opportunity to form tighter bonds, leaving you behind.
(I mean the US politician, not OP)
On the other side, we all know that he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about what happens to the country as long as his bank account gets swol.
Yes please. This is a fantastic strategy and I strongly support it.
Fuck their bourbon anyways
Now for yea, put hairs on yer chest :)
gotta love the eu. Effective and gives me an idea of what I don’t want to buy living in a blue state.
Canada has a similar list, FYI.
I have only seen american and not red state specific. granted the only thing out of the eu article is bourbon and I don’t drink much and when I do its more likely vodka anyway.
I assure you, the actual Canadian list is painfully detailed. One item specifically listed is fitted cases for church bells.
Florida oranges and Ohio appliances are two prominent ones I hear mentioned fairly often.
ohio in particular im disapointed in. like I understand alabama and kentucky with their education but ohio is a massive disapointment.
This is great. Hit red states harder until they feel the pain of their choices for electing a couple of nazi clowns into office. Maybe, just maybe, they’ll learn how to regret their choices before we’re all wiped off the earth in a civ ending heat wave.

I’m actually not OK with this, TBH. First, it very much better than bending the knee, but if they’re going to impose tariffs, they need to be on the country. Plenty of democrats in those red states and plenty of republicans in blue states either will or won’t “get what they voted for.” In the end, we all should pay for this travesty.
Oh you will, don’t worry about that.
So what’s your solution?
Thought I spelled it out pretty clearly: tariffs on the entirety of the US instead of just “red states.”
But, NY didn’t vote for Trump… And neither did CA.
So, punish the people who DID vote for Trump.
Don’t worry, states like NY and CA are being hit by Trump himself.
