Akin to Putin invading Ukraine, the tariffs aren’t a trade war, they’re a Stupid Economic Operation.

Dude thinks tariffs are Uno cards.

All Trudeau needs to do is implement a reciprocal tariff that also increases by like amount. Boom, now you have an infinite tariff loop and a single transaction in either direction is enough to create infinite GDP.

Checkmate, economists.

Ya honestly Trump is so fucking stupid that it's starting to feel like he's doing a bit. Like is he mocking his own supporters at this point? I think the world needs to respond to trump with something exactly like this. Infinite tariff loop is actually a policy I would support unironically.

Well his first though after he clashed with Zelensky was "That will be great television"

Sound to me like he is just thinking in tv drama plotlines, but unlike on tv you can't just cancel a show when everything goes to shit ...

Long before you get to 100%, everybody stops buying it. Zero times anything is zero.

yeah, but 0 times infinite is undefined, so who knows what'll happen ;)

They can go above 100% too. Canadian chocolate bar $420.69 when?
