Got it, thank you.

What about new or existing tariffs on specific countries or for specific imported products?
Is there a list somewhere of existing ones and a list of new ones Trump already announced to implement?
That would be really interesting as I'm employed at a (European) company which produces assembly lines for the automotive branch and we have several American tier 1 suppliers and OEMs as customers.

He promised a 20% across the board tariff.  All countries, all products.  I doubt he will do it, but he will threaten it until he receives something from each country he threatens that he perceives as a favor, who knows what.

Yup.  Here's a list of some of those people too:

There are many lawyers who aspire to be appointed as federal prosecutors.  Stands to reason that the way to get one of those appointments would be to promise the Big Guy one of those scalps.  Doesn't matter if there's no case at all.  As long as the Big Guy thinks you're in on his delusions, you're in like Flynn!

I hope he goes after all of those [BLEEP]!!

One of the reasons why I voted for him.

There's no plausible way most of the people on the list violated the law.  Not that you care, but hopefully, the judges will still care about the law.
