Russia not on Trump's tariff list
www.bbc.com
US media quotes the White House press secretary as saying this is because of sanctions on Moscow.

Summary

Russia was excluded from Trump’s sweeping tariff list due to existing U.S. sanctions that limit trade, White House officials claimed.

Despite lower trade volumes, countries like Syria were still included, prompting skepticism.

Trump has prioritized ending the war in Ukraine and threatened 50% tariffs on nations buying Russian oil. Russian state media framed the omission as sanctions-based, not favoritism, with some mocking Trump’s harsher stance on allies.

Ukraine, meanwhile, faces a 10% tariff despite the country’s strategic partnership with the U.S.

          Right, because even though we both know you were wrong, you’re too fragile to admit it.

            Not fragile. I really do recall seeing an article about this, and digging into finding it to show that I was only wrong admit the citation and not the content of the comment and my heart. But thats a chore and I’m putting off spending time doing that.

              Trust me bro, I was right, I just don’t feel like proving it.

              Fragile little ego. So pathetic.

                Turns out it was an NY Times article, which you are free to search for yourself because this thirsty for attention wannabe troll shit can fuck right off.

                Fun fact: Being abrasive and needing someone else to spoon-feed you the exact baby food you want isn’t a great way to go through life.

                  Turns out it was an NY Times article

                  No it wasn’t, you’re lying again.

                  needing someone else to spoon-feed you the exact baby food you want isn’t a great way to go through life

                  Asking people for sources for their outlandish claims is “being spoonfed baby food” now.

                  Jesus, you’ll really do anything but just admit to being wrong. It’s so cringe.

                  Look, you came into this thread trying to dunk on people, got proven wrong, pivoted and doubled down, got proven wrong again and you just can’t seem to handle that fact. We both know it. Just admit it and take the L.

      Come on, it’s not that long. You must have seen how utterly wrong you are by now.

      Lol the irony…

      Of course I know what article you were talking about. Go ahead and read it again and then quote me where it says anything about generating a list of countries that somehow leaves out Russia.
