They really are just sending out the same copy of the same letter to every country, but just changing names and an arbitrary tariff %.
Update: I am seeing talk that CUSMA goods may be keeping their exemption, if true then this is just more
indeed.

This could be a carrot and stick approach by him as the current 'deadline' is for an agreement to be in placed by 21 July based on the G7 meetings/discussions.They really are just sending out the same copy of the same letter to every country, but just changing names and an arbitrary tariff %.

More like he’s desperate to get something by that date. Apparently, there hasn’t been a line of countries beating down the White House door to make crappy deals with someone who has a history of reneging on deals.

Turns out from what I've read this morning that our 'new' date for an agreement has been pushed back to 1 Aug. So this 'new' 35% tariff is his attempt to draw a red line under the 1 Aug date.
What everyone seems to be forgetting is that NONE of these 'agreements' (such as the UK or Vietnam ones) are in fact law until Congress votes on them and it passes within Congress. Up until then, there is NOTHING preventing Trump from ignoring the agreed upon agreement because its not become law in the US.

Except the pre-existing ones, like CUSMA, which he, the greatest negotiator of all time, negotiated.
Lack of legal authority isn’t something he appears to feel particularly constrained by.
The funniest one currently in the Tariffs mess is his personal interest in hitting Brazil over the legal treatment of their former president. And he still pretends like it’s an emergency and his Congress goes along with it.

DST was legislated, then cut, so don't see how supply management is completely safe - except for the political capital needed if it's cut.
