    This is such a stupid concept.

    Every nation with currency sovereignty manipulates its currency. The Federal Reserve itself is constantly going on about the things it’s doing to change the value of the dollar and trying to address trade deficits! Yet if someone else does it it’s “unfair”

    Also, how the fuck is Germany on the list? They’re on the Euro! They can’t even control their own currency! What manipulation?

    This is literally just a list of countries that are doing well and America is mad about it.

      Every nation with currency sovereignty manipulates its currency.

      Add to that. Citizens / voters blame politicians when a currency is low relative to others. While those same politicians claim responsibility for improvements.

      Including US ones.
