    Sorry for multiple posts, but my points are different.

    Impose tariffs on Denmark? Do you all know what we import from Denmark? Medication and medical devices. So that would further increase the cost of healthcare in the US. He already signed an executive order to undo the $35 insulin cap for Medicaid recipients. He is actively raising healthcare prices.

    Tariffs would only hurt both countries.

      Do you think he cares?

      That is very on brand for trump. Pissing off a former ally and messing up healthcare worse for “his own” country.

      It would hurt both countries, but Denmark can still sell their medication and medical devices to the rest of the world.

      These tariffs in general are going to hurt Americans far more than anyone else.

      It all makes sense when you accept that he’s been installed by our enemies to destroy the US.

      It’s also an integrated EU economy, so I’d assume the entire European single market would retaliate.

      But yeah, he doesn’t care about or understand that. Or at least won’t until there’s active unrest in America over the crazy inflation and layoffs.

        Yes, to add you cannot impose targeted tariffs on Danish goods, as these are typically traded within the EU before going to the US.
