๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณUS tariffs to China can BACKFIRE: here's why๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ’ธUS dependence on CHINESE exports is data that goes on and on every time.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ’ปAccording with The UN Comtrade, the Consumer Electronics is the most exposed with $96 billion in exports and accounting for 41% of US imports in this sector.

๐ŸชซThe sector's positioning at the top of the chart, along with textiles ($68 billion) and clean energy and batteries ($15 billion), indicates that these industries are particularly dependent on Chinese imports, making them especially susceptible to Trump's aggressive tariff policies.

๐Ÿšซ๐Ÿšš๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธChina has already warned that if Trump imposes 100% tariffs on Chinese products, they will stop exporting.

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณโžก๏ธ๐ŸŒChina has already expanded into other markets to supply exports to the US.

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ Prediction: Trump will STEAMROLL Canada and Mexico

Some people in the multipolar space are predicting Trumpโ€™s new tariffs against Canada and Mexico will backfire. We think theyโ€™re greatly mistaken.

Letโ€™s take a look at a breakdown of trade among the three countries:

๐Ÿ”ธ75% of Canadian exports go to the US. Only about 12% of US imports come from Canada

๐Ÿ”ธ80% of Mexican exports go to the US. Only about 14% of US imports come from Mexico

๐Ÿ”ธExports to US account for 20% of Canada GDP. Exports to Canada account for 1.5% of US GDP.

๐Ÿ”ธExports to US account for 30% of Mexico GDP. Exports to Mexico account for 1.3% of US GDP.

๐Ÿ“ฑ๐Ÿฆโš™๏ธ And donโ€™t forget that Canada and Mexico are TOTALLY DEPENDENT on US technology, financial system, and mechanical parts.

CONCLUSION: Trump has vastly more leverage than Canada and Mexico. If he decides to play hardball, they wonโ€™t have much choice but to surrender.

๐Ÿช– US manpower and firepower vastly exceeds that of the Canadian military.

โœˆ๏ธ Many of Canadaโ€™s top weapons systems come from the US (see: CF-18 Hornet fighters). Canadian military relies on US suppliers for maintenance, parts, and upgrades.

๐Ÿ›ฐ๏ธ Canada does not have its own Global Navigation Satellite System. It totally depends on US GPS for civilian and military applications. Canada also canโ€™t launch satellites into space without US help.

Tech billionaires helped reelect Trump in 2024, pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into his campaign.

To help pay them back, Trump wants to annex Canada to seize control its massive geothermal reserves.

This will provide Silicon Valley with cheap energy to fuel its AI ambitions.

The Northwest Passage is a sea route that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans via Canadaโ€™s northern coastline.

Melting Arctic sea ice is making this waterway more navigable for maritime trade and warships.

Canada asserts that the Northwestern Passage is within its internal waters, while the US demands free and unrestricted access.

Before 2022, European industrial energy and gas prices were slightly more expensive than America's, and fairly close to Chinaโ€™s.

Since then, industrial energy prices in Europe have become 158% more expensive than in the US and European industrial gas prices are 345% greater than those in America.

Gap between Europe and China has also SURGED, which helps explains why many German companies have begun outsourcing production to China.

๐Ÿ”ธTier 2 encompasses a majority of the worldโ€™s countries, including India, Poland, the UAE, and Portugal.
