So what was the point of the trade deal if the orange fucker still uses tariffs as a threat?
Yeah I’m losing faith that they’ll ever learn. They think they can ‘art of the deal’ him but he has the brain of a goldfish and likes being a bully. Any ‘win’ you get from him is short term and only serves to encourace him to come back and try to extract more from you. The only way to deal with him is to punch him back harder.
For instance, they took digital services tariffs off the table almost immediately - I guess to placate him? But that’s some of the best leverage the EU has on the USA.
I’m Canadian and that’s my thought too. We sign a new NAFTA deal then get teriyaki and threats more threats and tomorrow will be more
So much for avoiding trade war
And it’s not like it’s a surprise for anyone. Everytime someone caves to him, Trump takes that as a sign that he can ask for more. I truly don’t know what the EU was thinking with that bullshit agreement
B-b-but Daddy told us there would not be a trade war if we bow to what they want. Now they are threatening us again, just as if we made ourselves look like you can do anything to us. That’s unfair! I thought we were friends! But okay we can also make an exemption on our values here, but please daddy, make no trade war pwease
Imagine if any head of state said this infront of reporters instead of trying to appease the pedophile fascist.
“No more trade negotiations until all the Epstein files are released.”
I would also accept a similar statement about getting Russia to withdraw from Ukraine.
