Obviously. What's your point? Do you mean to tell me nothing changed in how the US tariffs their imports?

[philipallstar]

No, I'm saying what you said was misleading at best, because tariffs already existed.

Again, obviously. Tariffs were an economic precision instrument and the threat of them a form of soft power. Now they’re a bully’s spiked club. Which is the implication of my original comment had you applied some good faith and reading comprehension.
