Trump unveils tariff plan on Chinese aircraft imports
Aircraft, jet engines and helicopters made in China are among 1,300 product categories that will face a 25% tariff if imported into the USA, the Trump Administration proposed on 3 April. (www.flightglobal.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
The plains are really still in the "Development" stage and it will be hard to say definitively that the US Market isn't at risk. If you eliminate a competitor, costs go up. The fallout over this ego driven trade war is not going to be small... and with China's reciprocal 25% tariff on aircraft, I wouldn't want to be sitting with a pile of Boeing stock right now. They have over 300 orders from Chinese companies, and it won't be long before those start getting cancelled and switched to AirBus or ... dare I say it, Bombardier!
Good post. The real victims of a trade war will be the U.S. consumers. That's who will have to pay the higher prices because of the higher tariffs. No company will absorb them and accept lower profits. They will all be passed on and probably marked up in the process. If Trump cared about his base, he wouldn't be sticking everyone with a higher cost of living. Does anyone think wages will go up to offset the tariffs? And if they did, that would raise the cost of goods and services, and then you've got serious inflation.
Of course, if President Dennison hadn't gone bankrupt numerous times to skip out on his debts, and if he'd paid people he had contracts with, and if he didn't sue countless times to intimidate his way out of a jam, he'd have some understanding and empathy with his base. When they finally turn on him, it'll be UGLY. All the people kissing his butt now can look forward to decades of Dems in the White House, Senate, and House and it will all be because of Donny. RECOR10 and his ilk will scream threats at me for saying that, but it's what will happen and why it will happen whether they can admit it or not.

People fail to realize that Trump is a BILLIONAIRE due to his skills in International Business. So, surely he is ignorant to how things run. But, people who cant see beyond their own dogmatic pious are hell bent on blaming him for everything from bad M&M's to sick kittens. We will see how this all pans out...but, the other posters who are nothing but insults...well...lowest common denominator arguments. In any argument - as soon as someone makes an insult...they lost the argument. Seems facts never get into the way of a good personality bashing for many.
Actually he’s a litigious rip-off artist who probably isn’t really a billionaire.
How many times has he gone bankrupt? Four? Five? Leet skills in business, dude. Leet skills.
And, the most productive President for individual rights for decades. Plus he has a higher rating than shitbag Obama had at the same point in his apathetic tenure. What is extra special fun, on top of my family being in the oil production business, I work in healthcare...Win-Win with Trump!
The next time you ever consider a fact and prove you can think for yourself instead of spouting the nonsense Faux News spews will be the first time.
How does it feel to be in the ever-dwindling "base"? His trade war will hurt the oil business because it buys a lot of stuff such as steel from China, the aerospace business (steel and aluminum), and the health care industry (have a look at all the "Made in China" labels next time to show up for work while you still have a job).
How generous of you to care about how Trump's trade war will hurt agriculture. Keep that in mind when the prices you pay in the supermarket go up, but don't blame the farmers. Give all the credit to President Dennison.

"Seems facts never get into the way of a good personality bashing for many." Like your "shitbag Obama" comment below? Pot. Kettle. Black. You're one of those people who can look in a mirror and see an asshole without having to bend over first.
At least you were 100% correct about one thing you said about Trump: "surely he is ignorant to how things run".
And THAT is what you want in a President??
