Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

What a disgusting president. Instead of seeking to make friends around the world, he is alienating us from the friends we do have on a whim. He is the worst president ever and should be in jail, not the White House. Also, he needs some psychological help.

😂 😂 Switzerland has a Federal Council and a Federal Chancellor, who btw is a man. How in the world can a person who is so publicly ignorant be the face that represents 340 million Americans in the world stage? Embarrassing 😳, to say the least.

"The Swiss are mean, nasty people. They poked holes in my cheese. They put a spoon on my pocket knife. Thank you for your ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER!" -- Donald Trump, Dei Gratia Rex.

Such a tough guy! Willing to raise the cost of products for American consumers and destroy demand for American exports to show the mythical PM of Switzerland (no such position exists) who is boss! F*cking moron.

More idiotic ramblings of a despot with an age/adderall/dementia addled mind... his ego is so fragile that anyone disagreeing with him is punished... In his sociopathic narcissistic world he knows more about anything that anyone else, he can never be wrong & never has to apologize for his idiocy...

Guy Parmelin is President of the Swiss Confederation for 2026, having assumed office on January 1, 2026. He leads the seven-member Federal Council—which serves as the collective head of state—heads the Federal Department of Econ Affairs, Education, Research. The presidency is a rotating, one yr term

I really hate how everyone cowers to him. He puts on an act that he’s this mean cruel mob boss, but he sends in the henchmen do actually do the dirty work. He just wants camera time and bragging rights. I REALLY hope he is eventually held accountable for something…

Thanks for admitting you are using tariffs because your feelings were hurt. Has nothing to do with protecting US manufacturing. Congress, take this power away from him now!

In November 2025, Donald Trump received a custom gold Rolex desk clock and an engraved gold bar from Swiss executives in the Oval Office. These gifts, estimated to be worth over CHF 100,000, were given shortly before he lowered tariffs on Swiss goods.

Not sure. I recall hearing "sometime in the fall." It will be interesting to see when the decision happens.

Switzerland has no prime minister. He must be referring to Karin Keller Sutter, who is Head of the department of finances and was the (merely representative) president of the Bundesrat in 2025,an office that is served for one year only.

Switzerland doesn’t have a Prime Minister. Switzerland has a President (of their Federal Council, a seven-member collective body that serves as the head of state and government) and HIS name is Guy Parmelin.

In fairness, it was Karin Keller Suter in 2025. Technically, Trump was wrong, as the position doesn’t exist in Switzerland, but for his standards pretty close to reality. For the full story, he lowered the tariffs to 15% after being bribed by a gold bar and a fancy watch.

Childish whims are the root of American policies. Someone should have tripped him on that European stage he ham-fistedly pushed his way to the front of. He’s an infant with nuclear weapons.
