Stand firm
US made cars dont fit into most of the worlds countries streets. Why the heck does someone need so muich space for a car anyways?
Even with zero tariff on American cars into Japan, no Japanese will buy any. American cars are of inferior quality and definitely more expensive even without tariff.
Thx Lena
Trump has a problem pushing American cars..they are rubbish.
FYI American cars aimed at other Common wealth countries are right hand drive already but these cars are not made in America.
2 freakin nukes whilst they were willing to surrender. How the f..k is that excusable to their own people?
Can everyone just accept the total racism by US and the West? That is the absolute reality. Think how many people in the world. Then consider the total
BS. Seriously. Big mouth.
I do enjoy your work, well done, and thank you. Japan, like UK, South Korea, Germany, Italy, France and many others bowed to US imperialism long ago, after WWII. Okinawa is the fly in the ointment. Japan is militarily weak and US will make sure it stays weak. It gives US a military presence, a strong one, in Asia, around the corner from China. Japan is shouting against thunder, it will take a major event to undo their silliness of the last 70 years
Complaining that japanese dont buy American Cars IS Just a Prime example of American arogance. And complaining, that japanese dont pay enough for their own occupation IS similar
Why not tell Trump to remove the US bases from Japan as they are not willing to pay for them
It is funny that western wanna sell us their rice lol we have been eating and farming that shit for thousand of years
From MAGA to MAFA
From make America great again to make America fall again 😅
Let America send a million cars to Japan..a year later there will be one million un-sold cars ..the Japanese will not buy them.
Did we expect counties to start playing fare just by asking.
The louder they scream the more they’ve been sticking it to America.
America can live without Toyotas!
Good information. Thank you.
Japan should pay for their own defense and we can move our bases and let them deal with China ON THEIR OWN!
Japan has finally developed a backbone. Let's see how long that lasts.
Stand firm
Trump: Kiss my ass to get a deal.
Japan: Forget a deal !
How is asking Japan to remove their tariffs being a bully? Fair trade would be, no tariffs levied by any county. How is it fair that foreign countries can levy enormous tariffs on the United States and the United States is allowed to levy little to no tariffs? Who is the real bully?
Trump has managed to unite Europe, and unite East Asia, which is extraordinary.
Stand firm Japan!!
NATO, South Korea, Japan etc looks like a shake down for more protection money!!
Who's the bully the one who's been stealing our lunch money for years. Were the one that asked Japan to stop
Japan your gone 50% tariff
I wonder what else Japan has tarriffs on, listen I wont support tarriffs just because, but if there are areas where I want to compete in I would reciprocate, the US has as much as a right to tarriff Japan as Japan does to America, everyone talking about cars is missing the point. Fair Trade no Free Trade.
This trade war has to be one of the dumbest in history. Prices are already out of control, and now with these tariffs, everyday essentials are just going to get more expensive. It feels like regular people are paying the price for political games.
This channel increasingly seems to promote a biased, alarmist narrative aimed at discrediting the West and especially the United States. Titles like “Economic Rebellion” or “Collapse” are not serious geopolitical analysis—they’re clickbait designed to stir panic and resentment. The tone, content, and even the rhetorical structure echo messaging often associated with Kremlin-backed media: constant emphasis on Western decline, glorification of authoritarian responses, and selective framing of international events.
If you’re truly interested in global affairs, seek sources that offer real depth, context, and balanced perspectives—not just a stream of doomsday headlines.
Threads will not always work.
You choose, be part of the USA or China…
Its not assertiveness. It's national survival.
Japan should have no tariffs on American cars, their people don't want them anyway.
👍🇯🇵🇨🇳👌Japan should move it's political ideology closer towards that of China to boost trade and cultural developments
How much rent does the USA pay for the Ramstein-Station in Germany ???
I believe the fundamental problem of Japan is that it is a US militarily occupied country, a country with no real sovereignty or independence. Japan should not go against its national interests. Japan is against the wall with the US. Plus the aggressive position of Japan with regard to China and Russia and not good relations with South Korea contributes to Japan’s difficult position in Asia. All this aggressiveness is push by the US. It will make a big difference if Japan would negotiate the closing of all US military bases it will drastically change Japan’s geopolitical position in the world and specially in Asia, but I don’t see that happening any time in the near future. All US vassals states face the same problem: they are not independent sovereign nations. Thank you for your programs
