trade defecits is not the measure I would use - tman MU - 4/3 13:10:37

Nor is it the metric being used(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 4/3 13:29:26

What metrics are being used in that chart? - Bosalphus KC - 4/3 13:34:47

and it wasn't the metric used in this case either.(nm) - Spanky KU - 4/3 13:12:49

Then why did he put a 17% tariff on a country that doesn't - Seagull MU - 4/3 13:13:56

which one? I haven't memorized the chart (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 4/3 13:19:31

Israel got hit with tariffs - Bosalphus KC - 4/3 13:23:24

Why would it take longer than a day - Bosalphus KC - 4/3 13:33:48

- 4/3 13:26:37
