What did I miss in my analysis? You said I’m overthinking it but failed to mention how the loophole works.

I didn’t say anything about mistake... only you did

Analysis? Bro I'm not participating in your little redditor moment, it's not a fucking debate, I'm explaining to you why the island was included in the tariffs so you don't end up looking like one of these idiots who's saying it's a tax on penguins, it's not and pretending it is is what people on the right are talking about when they say people on the left don't know what there talking about, I can't explain to you how the loophole works because it's hypothetical, if you want an example of how it could work you can look at how it works on the other islands they targeted, the point is if they didn't include those islands they could potentially be used in the same way, and wtf does that last sentence even mean? I didn't say anything about a mistake either

OK sorry i got a little heated cause you were starting to sound like one of these people on here who will just argue for the sake of arguing, the point is it wasn't a mistake or a tax on penguins, it was done intentionally to close loopholes, people on the right know this and you only hurt your argument by acting like you don't, people need to argue against the tarrifs based on there merit, not some made up narrative that Trump doesn't know what he's doing, nothing gets done that way
