    One interesting bit is the 10% flat rate. It hits mostly countries that
    the US has a trade surplus with.

    "According to its own trade figures, the US has a trade deficit with
    only 14 of the 122 countries being handed the 10 per cent tariff".

    You might call the minimum rate as the "I hate everybody" tariff.

    I believe Trump does hate everybody. The non-billionaire Americans too.
    I'm still watching this with disbelief.
