And yet Ford is doing exactly the same thing and doing well.

They increased prices across the board, and cant produce enough Hybrids even in Mexico.

Their Model T, Ecar truck platform is in 2026, at 30k, with no tax relief.

You have to innovate, and simplify production and assembly.

Great job, tariffman. You stupid, fat fuck.

So, got a list of what you have ordered from the EU lately?

Really, chronicle how this affects you?

My last and only order from Europe was to get a matching French Army Goretex camo lower for the upper layer I got here, great product, but it does make you throw your gun down, and immediately surrender.

And once our company worked for a week at the Buffalo post office hub, the carts of incoming international mail, sat for the entire time we were there.

Such a hardship.

Hey Buddy, Canada is dropping most of its retaliatory tariffs.

That's called winning eh?

No, you'll want to see how that big tariff lawsuit plays out first. I'd rate it as too early to call.

Also, that's not a lot of tariffs to come off. Mostly symbolic, so don't throw a party yet.

Most of tsriffs and duties are already set by the USMCA and those pretty much remain, plus the additional tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos remain. The Buy Canadian boycott remains. Our booze still isn't on their shelves like it was. And they're still not spending their tourist dollars here.

So... yay?
