The EU is still doing their “we won’t tariff you but your food is unsafe for human consumption and your cars are too dangerous to drive” shtick. It’s not going to work though because Trump has already said he’s not accepting any deal that doesn’t lower our trade deficit.
The European Commission has approved the use of mealworm larvae flour in a range of food products including cheese, jams, pasta and bread at the end of January this year. Just a reminder.
I mean, sounds good, especially if they get on board with tariffs on China.

I buy shit from Europe. A lot of my tools are from Germany and my coffee press is from Portugal. I specifically go out of my way to buy American, and if I can't find an American product I buy Japanese or European. Fuck China, I'm glad we're burning our trade with them to the ground, but I would prefer we get an actual good, honest deal with Europe and our Asian allies.

If Trump really is the le ebin deals man, he won't let this slip through his fingers. A US-EU free trade and manufacturing bloc would be fucking yuge.
He should give "our benevolent rulers" a reminder of how totalitarian and traitorous our governments are. If they don't comply, they should go fuck themselves. A free trade bloc without any conditions is antithetical to everything the United States stands for and gives the EU states a free pass for abusing and basically ethnically cleansing their populations.
 
You think we would/should intervene on Russia’s behalf? Do you want to fight Chinese in fucking Siberia for a foreign nations resources?
The point of what we’re doing is not to have to. China teetered and we took the opportunity to push them off a Cliff

They really should’ve invaded Taiwan when Russia invaded Ukraine. Then we wouldn’t have done shit
 
What a stupid reply.
Quality posting.

Come on big boy, tell me how a tariff is totally different. Also tell me how you define slave labor or what "minimum wage" means when all 50 states can have a different value for it. I am just thankful you are not in a position to make any meaningful decisions on economic matters. All these glowies and usaid funded faggots have way too much time now and are doing it for free apparently.

will you apologize for doubting trump
 
Oh, would you look at that: the thing I (and others) predicted would happen, happened.
Oh god, reminds me of trying to convince people Russia and China aren’t actually best friends

Like did anyone notice how Europe pretends to be afraid that Russia is going to take over the whole continent unless the US spends all its hardware, munitions and money RIGHT NOW?

It’s because when they say “a multipolar world,” they mean “Europe and China”

If they were really worried about Russia, they’d press China for supporting Russia. But they never criticize China

Still had the invasion-barges they recently rolled out to build. But they’re definitely gonna wait until Trump/Vance are out of office (then the talking heads will blame Trump for not solving an intractable diplomatic issue that the democrats Totally Would Have (tm) solved).
 
I should not have looked at all those comments on the video. What a blackpill and a headache reading all of that. I don't know how to begin describing how repulsive this behavior is. I also don't know how politicians can continue to make a kabuki theater show about "unity" when that is not possible anymore when your whole country is full of people like this. And honestly as a right winger myself (though not GOP or Libertarian) I don't want any unity with the left in any form mostly because of tribalist Democrat voter people like this. At all.
Yeah. It's frustrating when those same people act like they have any moral high ground.
 
I’m 100% convinced China was desperately hoping Trump wouldn’t win.
China wants to try and pass the US economically. That has been Xi Jinping's strategy since he took power. All these countries capitulating to Trump puts China in a rough position that they sorta put themselves in. Their only options now are to cooperate or try to turn Africa and Central Asia into a dumping ground for consumer goods that no one wants or can afford.
 
Remember that EU politicians are all faceless bureaucrats who’ve never had to win an actual election. They have no leadership skills because they’ve never actually lead anyone.
Nor I but even I understand the condition on not going against the deal is the fact that one was made in the first place and Trump has rather publicly said you should do whatever the person breaking the deal is doing back.
