After delivering a potted #economic history of the country in which he bizarrely claimed that the #GreatDepression would have been avoided if high tariffs had been in place, #Trump announced that “reciprocal tariffs” would go into effect on April 9th, w/rates of 34% on goods imported from #China, 24% on #Japan, & 20% on the #EU. Some of the highest rates were reserved for export-led developing countries in #Asia: 46% on #Vietnam, 48% on #Laos, & 49% on #Cambodia.

Tiny #Vietnam

Graciously hosts that orange shit gibbon’s offshore romantic get together with the infant king of North Korea,

And look what it got - 46% #tariffs slapped on it. The highest tariff rate of all.

Meanwhile, the rate of #Trump supporters amongst the immigrant Vietnamese population is astronomical.

The more you love him, the more he’ll fuck you.

2025 “He didn’t come during his first term as president, but American presidents will always be welcome here, as are other international visitors.” — Australian PM

1966 “Outside Melbourne Town Hall, a carefully prepared civic welcome was swept aside in a minute. Civic dignitaries and their wives were crushed, bruised and pummeled by surging people.

Fist #fights broke out, and police, soldiers and American security men fought desperately, but vainly to keep the frenzied crowd clear of the President.

A number of people #fainted but the crush was so great they could not collapse underfoot…. Plastic bags of paint were #thrown at the President's car as it pulled slowly away from #ElmTree House. A bag burst over the windscreen and the canopy, splattering paint over three of the President's security guards.

The President's comment was: "I guess he just couldn't stand the size of that turnout." — referring to the size of his car.”

The “Bubble top” was down.
