Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

I can't figure out how such a tariff would work.
First of all, Trump still has no idea what a tariff is. It is not a tax on foreign countries. What does he think goes on? We send a tax bill to a foreign country and they will pay it?
A tariff is a tax on domestic companies which import goods and/or services. Let's say I own a company which imports shirts made in Cambodia. Cambodia will not pay the tariff. I would, and I could either eat the tax myself and let it affect my profit margin, or I can pass it along to my customers, or a combination of both.
So what about movies? Let's say Warner Brothers shoots a movie in England, and there is a tariff on foreign-made films. Warner Brothers is an American company. They own the film. They are not buying it from a foreign producer or studio. So how do you apply a tariff?
This idea of a tariff on movies is ridiculous.
As far as Japanese anime goes, the tariff would be paid by the American distributor, and ticket prices might increase down the line.

Well he thinks biden is a robot clone... probably because Trump himself is a malfunctioning AI sexdoll someone left in a microwave with some nacho cheese...
I'm not sure he cares how his orderss are carried out. He just tells people what to do.
I myself wonder too since people could just email the files from anywhere. Or claimt hey used CGI.

^ I remember in Trump's first term, he began issuing orders to the military by posting them on his Twitter page.
I really shouldn't laugh. It was a serious security leak.
