    Trump just slapped a 50% tariff on Lesotho—a country where the average person lives on less than $5 a day. Why? Because we import a few hundred million in diamonds and textiles from them, and they’re too poor to buy anything back. That’s it.

    We’re hammering one of the poorest nations on Earth like they’re China. You think Lesotho is the reason we lost steel jobs in Ohio? Be serious. This isn’t strategy—it’s punching down for applause from people who can’t find Lesotho on a map.

    • I don't think anyone has a clue what's going on. I buy shit from Walmart all the time, they buy nothing from me, is that a defect? probably, is that a bad thing_niko
    • of course not. When the US buys natural resources from countries rich in them, they turn those resources into products and sell them to the rest of the world at_niko
    • a huge profit. So why punish Lesotho for not buying back equal amounts of shit?
      Retarded.      _niko
