A 90/10 profit split where the U.S. takes most of the gains from Japan's $550B investment isn't art—it's an ultimatum. This deal, announced July 22, trades long-term partnership for a short-term shakedown.

Let's be clear: Japan, already our #1 investor with $754B, now faces quarterly reviews under threat of XX% tariffs. The admin calls this a win while keeping a XX% tariff on their steel. This isn't a deal; it's a hostage negotiation with our top economic partner.

When you treat allies like assets to be squeezed, you don't build an economy. You build a fortress of one.
