    Sounds like it lol.

    Based on the article, the deputy prime minister added that he’s grateful for the reduced tariff in the same statement in which he said they’d nominate the orange buffoon.

    They could not be more transparent.

      The tariffs on places like Cambodia reveal how little it has to do with domestic industry because Cambodia has basically zero manufacturing. Its exports are almost all raw inputs we’d need to import for manufacturing. Instead, the tariffs are simple imperialistic extortion.
