US to impose 15% tariffs on South Korea as part of trade deal, Donald Trump says

I think it’s clear what these “trade deals” are now:

* A 15 % tariff – that seems less insane than liberation day – as a regressive tax
* A bunch of made up investments that either we’re already happening or will never materialize
* No counter-tariffs so 🥭 can say our number is bigger

Rinse and repeat
