They should just ship things the same way they ship fentanyl. It would be cheaper and faster.

Yet many countries are getting closer to China and being cheered on by many of the hate the US people.

Shouldn’t EU countries do something to stop Russia?

This guy should be sued into oblivion by shareholders.

I’m all for anarchy but then those with the bigger guns win and the US government has the bigger guns. 😂

Maybe the nordic countries come the closest but I’ll wait to see how electronic privacy (chat control) unfolds

I’m sorry your business isn’t agile enough to deal with your logistics issues. Perhaps you can find a market in your home country. 🤷🏻

This shipping limitation is exaggerated. How many people commenting here with the sky is falling are actually impacted in a way that can’t be corrected?

My argument is to remove your self imposed limit of “regular postal system” and this is a non issue. You as a business absolutely can send packages to US customers. The costs have gone up but you can still ship.

You seem to be arguing from a point of orange man is bad and trade should be free (except for US businesses).

All countries should remove all barriers to trade!

I never voted for Trump and have never in my life voted Republican. I do have a history as a business owner dealing with unfair trade practices from other countries though.

Most governments suck in my opinion. I left the US a decade ago and spend a majority of my time in international waters and/or very easy going jurisdictions. I want nothing to do with governments.

Arguing about which government is better is like who’s shit tastes better.

It’s still possible to ship DHL Express from Germany

The headline wouldn’t be as good if that were included though. 🤷🏻

EU de minimis does not apply to US imports. Japan is about $70, Australian non resident businesses over $75k of sales need to register and pay GST (10%) regardless of the de minimis, for NZ, the threshold is about $30k and the GST is 15%

Facts.

If what’s being evaluated is what’s best for the US, buy an alternative product from a US company or from a country that has figured out how to ship.

This is BS, FedEx, DHL, and UPS collect duties for other countries just like they do for the US tariffs

Again, DHL, FedEx, and UPS all can accept the payment. Just like they do for taxes and duties in other countries.

Yes, America cannot have it both ways but neither can Europe. Many of the things (e.g. healthcare) that the US is laughed at by Europeans is partially because the US spends so much on things like military that Europe doesn’t because they have been relying on the US.

The US benefits (well, the rich in the US) by being the reserve currency. Europe benefits by having stronger social programs.

It seems (and I do not like it) the US is currently looking to focus more on themselves. They work too much, have horrible social programs, massive economic divides and see so much being spent on programs benefiting other countries. They want more for themselves.

That’s a direction things seem to be going but it’s likely to slow or reverse based on their election cycles.

Social media such as here are generally echo chambers for a more globalist view and a hate America baseline. It can make us believe that it’s a majority belief. I have my doubts. I also have zero Ill will towards those that feel that way.

Europe has much more past and current expirence with fascism than Americans so it’s understandable

Your claims are exaggerated

• Bloomberg Economics estimates the tariffs will reduce U.S. GDP by 0.15% and increase consumer prices by 0.1% over three years.
• The expanded tariffs cover 407 specific product categories—but “hundreds of thousands” overstates the scope.
• The U.S. has domestic steel and aluminum production. Nucor and Cleveland-Cliffs have seen stock price increases, and Minnesota’s iron ore industry has benefited from past tariffs.
• The media isn’t quiet about these issues, you may not understand the issues so you aren’t seeing reports to back up your misunderstanding

DHL, UPS, and FedEx partners with USPS for “last mile” deliveries. Those three shippers do the DDP and USPS can do the last mile.

A lot of the Murricans feel the same way about Europe fighting their own battles too.

This is not true. Ship with DHL, FedEx, or UPS.

DHL, FedEx, UPS. They are still shipping
