Hilarious Trump market manipulation reaches anew height

I wonder when he closed his shotrs and opened longs.....

Here's his Truth Social statement in full:
"Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately.
At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable.
"Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 Countries have called Representatives of the United States, including the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, and the USTR, to negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed relative to Trade, Trade Barriers, Tariffs, Currency Manipulation, and Non Monetary Tariffs, and that these Countries have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape, or form against the United States, I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
We are continuing to decipher the specifics of Trump's announcement, stick with us for the latest.

This issue just shows how gutless the leaders of other countries are. They should have simply replied that they would sever alll diplomatic, economic, and military ties to the USA within the next 12 hours so that the result would be that the USA no longer exists as far as they are concerned.

Yes, but the reality is in their wisdom, which DJT has none, knowing that if they allow the US economy to crash, they will be the ones to feed us, so it's better for them to make an attempt to weather this 4 year storm with us. I believe they have us true Americans in mind.

@Diotrephes Thanks to the Republican Party, america's isolation is already underway. The new trading blocs won't need the US or its dollar.
International trade requires trust and rule of law - america has violated both, so can now go off and trade with itself
