There's no fucking way that chart is accurate. It's like a fever dream designed to show how "reasonable" we're being. "It's only half!"

Switzerland does not impose blanket 61% tariffs on U.S. imports, which immediately makes the rest of the "data" suspect.

If you're going to hold up an absurd visual aid, at least use a Sharpie to make the hurricane go elsewhere.

As someone from a (third world) country where everything is tariffed, welcome to the club America. It ain't fun, but you'll at least have company.

Misery, it is said, does love company.
