minus-squarePluto [he/him, he/him]hexagonhexbear55·edit-26 months agoFull Tweet if you're too lazy to click the title lol (it's fine): I just imposed a series of tariffs on goods made in China: 25% on steel and aluminum, 50% on semiconductors, 100% on EVs, And 50% on solar panels. China is determined to dominate these industries. I'm determined to ensure America leads the world in them. link
