How about the outlet checks and finds out?
I did, and I couldn’t get low-temperature Gemini or a local LLM to replicate it, and not all the tariffs seem to be based on the trade deficit ratio, though some suspiciously are.
Sorry, but this is a button of mine, outlets that ask stupidly easy to verify questions but dont even try. No, just cite people on Reddit and Twitter…
Some? A huge portion are. Numerous others have replicated it with visual proof. I agree that the news sites should be verifying it, but NYT did and also documented their proof.
May I have some sauce, please?
Appears to be that calculation minimum of 10%
Am I still going crazy or what, trade deficit =/= tariffs right??
No you're not going crazy, you just understand economics and trade more than the President of the USA.
Thanks, much appreciated.
