Not bad:

In the order Trump signed on Monday, the US said it would allow up to 100,000 cars into the US at a 10% tariff, instead of the 25% import tax imposed on all car imports earlier this year, as agreed under the terms outlined in May.
The order said the US would set up a similar system for steel and aluminium, but did not specify what it would be.


And
US beef exports to the UK have historically been subject to a 20% tariff within a quota of 1,000 metric tons. The UK had agreed to scrap this tariff and raise the quota to 13,000 metric tonnes, according to terms shared last month.

Interesting. I read on this board that other countries were totally fair to us and that we were being unreasonable.

Huh.

Had it been president Biden boasting "we have out trade agreement with the European Union" while standing alongside the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, you'd have laughed your ass off and called him too squirrelly to remain in office.

Anyone else notice that the "agreement" that Mad King Donald showed to the press was a blank sheet of paper with only his signature on it?

Finally, who the f*ck is Nick Sortor?

I love the fact that you get all your news on Xshitter these days.

But congrats: one quasi-deal done and 89 to go in the 90 deals in 90 days marathon.

Yes, I noticed...
Taco-Trump signs The Tabula Rasa Trade Deal! Dope celebrates!

Who else remembers the thick hard-bound book of empty pages Taco presented Leslie Stahl as his "beautiful health-care plan" during his 1st term?
