The point isn't the US economy. The point is stockmarket manipulation to get Trump and his friends more money.

That's literally the only reason.

I believe he is also expecting bribes from countries and companies to reduce the tarriffs

I don't know. People give him a lot of credit. I think he's just really really stupid and "tarriffs" is just the new word he picked up. Suddenly it's all tarriffs.
