Neighbor needs to stop threatening everyone with tariffs.
In most cases it will backfire

That's what you get when you have r-slurs who think tariffs are a magical tax on foreigners, and not on your own citizens, I guess.

It works if it's only a few isolated countries. If they're overused, the sanctioned nations just start relying on each other. Kind of encourages enemy nations to become more economically dependent on each other, reducing the influence of the nation applying the tariffs.

No. Tariffs are generally ineffective because once the host country imposes one, the other country does as well. Now you've got a tax on each country's imports and exports to each other, so consumers and suppliers lose while their government kind of makes more tax revenue.

When you threaten the whole fricking world they'll realize that we make nothing but electronic 1s and 0s and just say "frick you, keep your Netflix and X and make your own iron, fertilizer, tires, shoes, everything else"
Then they'll get together and say "stop trading oil in these neighbor's money"

The US could make that, it's just a bit cheaper to pay some random loser in the third world a couple pennies.
I don't understand why the thirdies believe they have any "leverage" over America

The problem is these industries, if they were primarily domestic, need a lot of manpower to put out enough products to satisfy the US market. It is much more profitable if you have a highly educated workforce to have them work in specialist jobs which allow for higher pay and therefore more spending power.
If instead your highly educated workforce is working on farms, making shoes or whatever you lose a lot of money

The west has outsiurced its production and doesn't have the local infrastructure or qualified personnel to start a new one.
You'll be years behind if you try to start now; you not only need developed patents and the educated manpower to build the factories, you also need the educated manpower to run the factories.
Yea good luck finding that in the US, where your average worker works in a franchise or struggles to find a job...

A lot of information work will be replaced by AI
so its not a valid basis for wealth distribution 
in the US. Also we become dependant on the rest of the world, which fricks us in the end 
. For example look at how China 
and southeast asia has deindustrialized the US economy and now we have to go toe for toe with china 
to defend taiwan. Or look at how we're dependent on saudi oil

The only possible way that BRICS ever does anything is if the US president is so fricking r-slurred he goes out to start a fight with them.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
No one in BRICS even has a currency worthy of being a reserve lol. China has a 1$ trillion trade surplus, Russia has one too and neither India nor Brazil have large or diverse enough economies to tether a reserve to. What is happening is basket of currencies and that's been happening since the 70s or something with pound, yen, euro now uae dirham and yuan. US will always retain global reserve as long as it continues having largest trade deficit. But being someone who supposedly wants to end that I don't understand him seething about global reserve lol.

It's honestly wild that the president has the power to unilaterally enact tariffs at will. Seems like something that would go through Congress.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
It is. He doesn't.
It would be up to Congress to take him to court over this issue. I'm really hoping that happens because it would be fricking lit.
Taxes are an enumerated power of congress. Congress gave POTUS three ways to enact tarrifs without him; go though DOC which takes about a year, USTR which takes about a year and declare war on them.
The legal theory the Trump camp has advanced is that the part of USC which allows him to sanction countries also allows him to tariff countries. Courts told him it doesn't last time.

So, during his first term he enacted plenty if tariffs. Did the hostile Legislative branch approve them? At the end of his term, pretty much all of them were enacted. Then Biden came along and didn't rescind the EO on them, so they're still in place.
How does that work with your point?

He went though commerce and USTR for nearly all of them.

Congress basically gave up the power to enact tariffs after they passed some in 1930 that were a total disaster for the economy.
