In a fiery Truth Social post on Thursday night, the president declared that any country backing an alternative currency would be hit with 100 percent tariffs and effectively cut off from American markets. Trump made it clear there would be no room for negotiation, dismissing any possibility of an international shift away from the dollar.

    Jokes on him. If they would drop the dollar and put their dollar reserves on the market, the dollar would be f-ed raw. That was the reason they went after Hussein: he threatened to sell oil for non-dollar valuta.
