And now the tariffs are on a card table for all to see.

Wonder what all the counties of the globe will do?
What will China do??

What do we buy from the USA?

Must be more than Teslas and Jeeps.

Trump's tariffs...

Post by matteo68 »

I don’t see the relevance of this lunatic’s latest self-congratulatory stunt on here - I thought the purpose of this forum was to talk about early Porsches, not extreme right-wing politics?

Agreed, we tend to avoid politics (and religion) on here as it tends to lead to friction - plenty of other places for that sort of thing - that far-right, narcissistic, fascist Musk's Twitter platform for example :wink: :wink: :wink:

I too am a far right narcissistic Nazi to many because in spite of my love for foreigners and all races and colours, I do still believe that a country should have actual borders and its residents should pull their weight if they are able to do so. This is the world in which we live, I guess.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.
