I'm not sure what the tarrifs currently are, but I'm not sure this is as dramatic as it sounds.

As an example, if the tarrifs are currently 30%, raising them 10% over and above what they currently are would make them 33%, right? ....right?

Then again, he's already proven that he can't do maths

    Yeah no he means that if they’re 30% he’s making them 40%.

    Again, unilaterally and without the vote of Congress, which hems supposed to need.

    Can someone please remove him? What the fuck are we even doing here?
