Wealthy nations will attempt to maintain exports against President Trump tariffs by subsidizing their industries. Corporations have deeper pockets, and the politicians are used to the bribes, we call it “lobbying.” Therefore, the government responds by subsidizing the corporations [ie. the WEF business model].
Canada will subsidize their export industries, Germany will subsidize their auto industry, the EU will provide subsidies to their manufacturing powerhouses, and China will once again start subsidizing their manufacturing industry. Each of these nations will in turn devalue their currency.
However, poorer nations will be faster to lower import tariffs on USA goods because they have lower lobbying (bribe) income from corporations to govt. That’s what we should expect to see.
During President Trump’s first term, many companies proactively moved manufacturing operations from China to other nations in Southeast Asia. Vietnam was a big benefactor of the manufacturing shift. It is smart for them to respond to the reciprocal tariffs coming April 2nd by lowering their tariff rate.
President Trump has instructed the Commerce Department and U.S. Trade Representative to calculate both the tariffs and the non-tariff trade barriers as part of the reciprocity equation. The non-tariff barrier calculation is the factor many foreign governments are anticipating with great interest.
This overall dynamic is a major reset in global trade as the U.S. market is the crown jewel for entry. We are the customers that everyone wants access to. President Trump is leveraging that access to trigger internal GDP growth.
Remember, even the GDP calculation is a factor of the value of products we generate, minus the value of the products we import. If we lower the import side of the equation and simultaneously increase domestic production, the GDP expands significantly more than just increasing production.

How does the politics of opposition surface? …”Canada will subsidize their export industries, Germany will subsidize their auto industry, the EU will provide subsidies to their manufacturing powerhouses, and China will once again start subsidizing their manufacturing industry. Each of these nations will in turn, eventually, devalue their currency.

With the tariffs now triggered, it begins exactly as anticipated.
The economics of the thing is now colliding with the politics and the ideology, of the thing. Globalists are being confronted. The proverbial West will cleave according to their financial self-interest.
The World Economic Forum (Build Back Better) model no longer views the USA as an ally. The MAGAnomic “Big Ugly” is underway. Countries will thrash and gnash their teeth; then surge in opposition, fail, then attempt to refoot and realign, then surge again and fail again.
And so it will go…
In 2019 Asia (ASEAN) was aligned as China was being confronted. The EU was the intended target for President Trump’s trade reset in term two as scheduled (2021-2025). However, COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting 2020 election threw a wrench in the plan.
In 2025 the EU focus is now a priority. ASEAN nations quickly reassemble on the original terms of Trump T-1. For Trump T-2, China is quickly moved back into adversarial position and focus returns to the previously scheduled look at Europe.
Yes, the EU understand the agenda; they know what was planned then and put aside. In Trump T-2 there is no avoidance mechanism that can be deployed. The only play the EU has is defense.
Europe is currently trying to arrange and coordinate a group of ideological allies to assist them. Those allies include Canada and to a lesser extent, Mexico. President Trump has shown a keen awareness of their best defense.
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) will not battle Donald J Trump. Factually, they all aligned their economic investment policy to gain from Trump confronting China. ASEAN countries will not battle President Trump; they will comply.
Africa will try to walk a fine line between China and the USA. However, Africa will not confront President Trump directly and, if push comes to shove, they will likely not support China using their belt-and-road leverage to attempt transnational shipping as a tool for U.S tariff avoidance. [Insert a Trump-favorable Russia into this regional dynamic.]
It is the EU and the workaround relationships they created within Mexico and Canada who will fight the global trade reset with ferocity.
Everything in the geopolitical world of economic opposition to President Trump will center around Europe.
Canada – Mark Carney, France – Macron, Ukraine – Zelenskyy, the EU Commission and Ursula Von der Leyen, all the way through NATO and into the German/Romanian elections and beyond, it’s all connected to the geopolitical dynamics of money, power and globalist economics.
Stay elevated. Keep watching. President Donald Trump is a master at the big picture stuff.
[ps. President Trump assigned every single one of those country specific tariff rates personally. Few understand why.]

Thats, GDMPGE.

The USA has been SUBSIDIZING Europe and most countries of the world by allowing them to charge Tariffs on USA imports for 80 years!
Allowing them to charge tariffs without the USA charging the same tariffs tit for tat on their tariffs.
Now this has changed via President Trump.
Now the subsidizing of europe and the world will come to an end.
Now europe and other countries will be made to pay USA tariffs exactly
like they charge the USA tariffs.
The WTO and marshall plan economics will end.
President Trump is Making America Great Again as he said he would.
Yes there will be costs to consumers in the short run.
Economics isn’t like instant grits.
Don’t wine and complain about the short term “pain”.
For those of you in Reo Linda, as Rush Limbaugh use to say,
economic reform isn’t like cooking instant grits.
If you cook grits at the correct temperature, correct amount
of grits and water that is required.
Also you must stir the grits bubba or they will be lumpy.
Instant grits don’t turn out right if their not cooked right.
Tariffs must also be “cooked” just right also.
President Trump knows how to “cook” those, just right.

How to Make Quick Grits
Full instructions are included in the recipe but here is a basic overview of what you’ll need to do, along with some important tidbits to help you make the most of this Quick Grits recipe:
- Heat the liquids. Place a medium-sized saucepan (with a lid) over medium-high heat and add the water, milk, salt, and half of the butter. Watch the pan closely as you wait for it to come to a boil because once it does the milk will foam and it’ll spill over the sides within seconds. You can rest a wooden spoon over the top of the pot to prevent over-boiling, but I want my grits as quickly as possible so I opt for a lid and a careful eye.
- Whisk in the grits. As soon as the liquid has come to a boil whisk in your grits. Keep whisking for 30-45 seconds after you’ve added them to the pot, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cover with the lid.
- Cook ’em. the grits until thickened and the grains are tender with just the touch of a bite, similar to a grain of rice, about 10-15 minutes. If the grits thicken too quickly, but the grains are still hard or chewy, whisk in another 1/4 C of warm water to the pot and continue cooking until they’re like you want them.
- Stir dim grits bubba. Watch em and stir them. Love dim grits.
- FINISH . Once the grits are cooked, turn off the heat and stir in the remaining butter and the black pepper. Taste, and add more salt if needed. Serve hot. Dassit!
- Use Celtic Salt bubba.
- Use real salted butter bubba.
