Good time to finally become a sovereign country
This is gonna hurt our economy. Which in turn if our economy goes down, our cost of living will go higher. It's not just about them not buying from us…
SO… USA OUR FRIEND RIGHT ???
AT LEAST CHINA DOES FREE TRADE…
Just boycott all American products including McDonald's KFC Coca cola etc.
My family had 5 iPhones we switched to Chinese brands, no more American products 😂😂😂
Australian News love TACO Man. How do you like him now?
Undue Influence Pressure from Tarriffs, only leads to fettering and tarring-if, you dont clean up dirty actions and deeds, especially if your own house is not in order. Get through the BS and unpredictability of what has changed for your government since there wasvan election-based bullying campaign designed for disturbing events and political discourse that has spanned so many nations Post Covid-19 border lockdowns and world trade beginning to resume trading since! Coukd be that the NIH Gain of Function Research Funding and the Pharmaceutical Industry in a course of conduct with Fauci that may have to answer some pointed questions about their vicaroous liability for impacts on global trade wars, etc. due to the iatrogenic after-effects on the proper thinking required of Post Covid-19 leaders that have been endeavouring to navigate the geopolitical terrain with supply chain disruptions and deals, etc. There are many more factors than the myopic, shortsighted views that may not see a bigger panoramic view of the geopolitical and biosecurity issues at stake here that stemmed from the effects of the partly staggered containment-phase around the world. We can learn from this and speak to how we all worked together then and can also do it now! Demanding resources or else we gunna tarrif you, seems akin to extortionate threats to security of the pre-existing rights to trade fairly. I thought that International Law was in place for good faith reasons! If that is in jeopardy, we need to know, so that we can apply for injunctions and to be heard by The International Court of Justice, by our leaders.
All countries should start threatening US with tariffs too or stop doing business with this nonsensical bully.
We have a weak prime minister.. he will stuff this for sure.. Albanese has got to go.. before he kills Australia outright
India manufactures a huge amount of medicine, as does the European Union our $2 billion share is negligible overall. Everybody’s favourite Ozempic is most certainly not going to be made in the United States of America…. They will keep making it in the Netherlands.
Chinese business men I have studied with UNSW Australia use the same Japanese Toyota philosophy “Kaizen” philosophy gradually improving your products over generations human evolution. Toyota Corolla may start as a sewing machine 1902 … it will become Car in 1965 …Flying car year 2100 and Toyota Corolla Spaceship year 2800…During CASE STUDY: Chinese Business Men joke!! Where is Henry FORD children 2025?? Enjoying there Billion Dollar TRUST FUNDS!! That’s the American WAY!! NOT!! THE!! CHINESE!! WAY!! FACTS: HOW GOOD 👍 IS CHINESE 🇨🇳 TECHNOLOGY IN 2025?? Use: The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is often cited as a strong contender for the best iPhone 16 Pro Max equivalent from China…. How good is Chinese Defence Industry?? CASE STUDY: During conflict between India and Pakistan (2025) Pakistan pilots used the J-10C fighter jets to SHOOT!! DOWN!! engage Indian Rafale jets and in a critical moment successfully shot down Indian planes 252.8km away!! using the PL-15 missile system. Now those same jets are in Iranian 🇮🇷 hands 🙌 80 ordered for 32billion orders!! Chinese 🇨🇳 Air Force officials extremely confident they will perform extremely well against AMERICAN 🇺🇸 F-35s of the “WESTERN WORLD” 🌎………..
CLOSE PINE GAP. THAT WILL WORK!
Put 200 percent Tarrifs on there beef .
200%? bye bye america, it’s bout time we stood on our own two feet anyhow.
We should not cave to trump. Just find new markets. Trump is not an allies. Usa can no longer be trusted. USA is self imploding. We need to look to new partners – both security and economically.
This is the death knoll of a super power.
According to Trumpy, the USA has been ripping us off for years.
FINISH THE JOB IN GAZA???
It will take decades to fix dumps and his horrible administrations mistakes, Fox and the corrupt judges have a lot to answer for 🤮
Good
The west is about to snatch defeat from the jaws of success.
Pushing Australia closer to China.
He might as well can't be any worse than what albo is doing to us
Bloody clown. USA dollar in free-fall .😂😂😂 BRICK countries walking away. Whole world running away. 😂😂😂

Trump is destroying America
Use plants
Tariffs go both ways.
Whatever they charge us. We charge them.
We doing need the US,
They need is.
Why?
Because they're lazy.
It produces nothing.
It consumes.
And what happens when the supply dries up?
America will implode.
I want front row seats to that.
We have no industries in Australia 🇦🇺 just privatised multinational companies/corporations that own our land and work it! And us peasants live in it and pay multiple taxes while the wealthy elites are taking our rights and freedoms
Australia 🇦🇺 is run by sell outs for small term game and long lasting consequences! That’s greed and capitalism at its best
I don’t know who’s worse china? 🇨🇳
Or America? 🇺🇸
But I do know one thing our government is weak and incompetent and owned by foreign multinationals corporations/ private lobbyists!
Our government in short term are cheap little puppets weak and feeble like a field mouse 🐁
Australia 🇦🇺 is owned by multiple countries our land our minerals our docks everything privatised and owned buy foreign companies and rich investors! It’s only going to get worser if this keeps happening 37% in taxes today and a lot more in the future because foreigners don’t pay taxes they have off shore accounts
