The Lion and the Jackals

For those pushing the narrative that Trump “caved”, you are mistaken.

Trump implemented the tariffs to prove to the world he is willing to do it, adding validity to his threats, granting him all the leverage in negotiations, and creating urgency.

Now that 75+ nations have shown they are motivated to make a deal, Trump can take them down to 10% for 90 days, to give all these nations time to negotiate a new trade deal in good faith.

But they know in the back of their mind, that if they don’t reach a fair and reasonable deal in a timely fashion, the tariffs are going back up, and they know Trump is not afraid to go through with it, because they just watched him do it.

Trump is showing the world he means business, and is giving them an opportunity to capitulate. Trump had to prove to the world that he holds all the cards, and he is willing to use them.

Every once in a while, the lion has to show the jackals who he is.
