a 5th of a bottle

No, a fifth is a bottle size in the US, it'd be a 750ml bottle outside of the US.

And the photo is from 1947, and the photographer was Walter Sanders.

This post is nonsense.

$451m in trade deficit with Russia just in January and February this year.

That's more than Lesotho for the whole of last year, but Lesotho had a 50% tariff applied.

Yes, $3bn worth last year.

The US consistently runs a trade deficit with Russia.

The US has a trade surplus with the UK, but still applied a 10% tariff to them.

He slapped a 50% tarrif on Lesotho, so it's clearly not about size or impact.

And the UK got a 10% tariff applied even though the US doesn't have a goods trade deficit with them.
