I’m genuinely curious to know in which material way the tariffs have benefited the American people.

You stupid bastards voted for no regime change and keeping our nose out of others business.

And now all the sudden you're fine with it.

It's fricking insanity.

And it really shows how feckless our leadership was under Bush and Obama dragging out the war on terror for over a decade.
Feckless? It was part of the plan. They were both highly invested in the NWO & the MIC, hell Bush IS the MIC and Obama is frontrunner for Man of the Century in the NWO.

This one was too easy and they knew it wouldn't get messy. With China's plans of world dominance, we had to do this. I hope we do get some of that huge oil reserve because we may very well need it in a few years.

At this rate the MAGA crowd will have the support of Bill Kristol, the Bush family and the Cheney's by week's end. Next thing you know they'll be referring to Mark Levin, Tom Cotton and Miss Lindsey as "true America First patriots". The hypocrisy is staggering.

Hopefully things work out quickly but there is a power vacuum right now. Loyalty of the thugs doing Maduro's bidding will go to whoever pays them.

As a negotiating tool, tariffs stand out as an exceptionally effective mechanism for advancing national interests in international trade. By imposing targeted duties on foreign goods, a country gains immediate leverage to compel trading partners to address grievances such as intellectual property theft, currency manipulation, or discriminatory barriers

hrvirginia.org +1

. This strategic pressure forces concessions that might otherwise be unattainable through diplomacy alone, resulting in more balanced agreements that enhance market access for domestic exporters and rectify trade deficits

cfr.org +1

. For instance, the United States has successfully wielded tariffs to negotiate improved terms with major partners: duties on Chinese imports extracted commitments to purchase billions in American agricultural and energy products, while tariffs on steel and aluminum from Canada and Mexico paved the way for the USMCA, which strengthened labor standards, environmental protections, and digital trade rules in favor of U.S. workers

pcclease.com +1

Tariffs as an end are not great. As a tool they are invaluable.

Tariffs excel in promoting reciprocity, ensuring that trading relationships are mutually beneficial rather than exploitative. When a nation faces dumping—where foreign entities flood markets with below-cost goods—tariffs neutralize this advantage, compelling offenders to raise prices or negotiate fairer practices, which ultimately expands opportunities for domestic firms abroad

. They also serve as a deterrent against non-tariff barriers like excessive regulations or subsidies in other countries, incentivizing global players to liberalize their markets in exchange for tariff relief. This dynamic not only resolves immediate disputes but builds long-term alliances, as partners recognize the mutual gains from equitable trade

Imagine thinking China and Russia are truly against the US/W Europe. There's a reason trillions in Iraqi oil was awarded to the former for pennies on the dollar despite the latter controlling the oil fields

Same shite will happen with Venezuela while foreign nations release statements condemning US intervention for public policy reasons

Note: Petronas and Sonangol are controlled by the Dutch and Portugese

So you want the US to police Venezuela while the party wins over control?
