Europe deserves it.
EU response: You leave us no choice, we need to impose our own tariffs... on China!
stop making fun of EU. We are superior! We are INDEPENDENT! We will stop nuclear power, allow the nord pipeline to be destroyed, not buying gas from Russia and we will ban everything China and then pivot to buying energy from Amerika, we are independent!
As we say in Spain, "no hay huevos".
Europe has 450 million people/users that are using/buying american tech goods and services. That revenue made from Europeans need to be taxed according to European laws. The so called threats of tariffs are only in Europe´s benefit bringing Europe one step closer to produce and sell its own tech goods and services. We should be thankful for the reminder.
The entire process of decoupling is a sham. In the same breath as the EU was signaling tendencies for tech sovereignty, we have continuation of vassalage under Pax Silica.
As gaps of orders appear in Europe the owning class looks to USA for new business opportunities, the listed reason as of why this is so is once again sold to the working class under the guise that we're simply not good enough and we better start acting American, whatever is that supposed to mean.
The real wake up would American annexation of Greenland which would hopefully be the final nail in the coffin of NATO and EU delusion of having any leverage and voice at the table.
... did he just forget the past few months happened?
Literally yes
He got bored with the war, gotta roll back to the old classics.
He is trying to speed-run social amnesia/mental fatigue/apathy on everything. Try to use Iran to try and get people to forget the massive ICE raids, used the ICE raids and Venezuela raid to pull attention from Palestine, used Palestine to draw away from the dramatic show of "big business showmanship" of all the tariffs. Rinse and repeat a lot of major shit throwing at walls.
Don't forget the Epstein files. Trump raped children
... alongside of others of his circle of influence and connections. Profoundly sick society.
Very true. I'm sure that the large amount of wealthy people that claim both parties do appreciate his rapid cycling of ever increasing shit.
it seems like europeans dont understand politics , they think US cannibalizing its vassals is not a possibility
even as they're actively being cannibalized apparently
This would be totally different from a tariff. Because Europe would pay the tax. /s
again with this bullshit 🙄 i'm hoping nobody is taking this seriously anymore.
what a ripoff. why not 600% tariffs. Remember that drug prices are going to drop 500%?
Trump doesn't know what day of the week it is.
Holy fuck. Who’s paying attention to this clown anymore?!
Oh yeah, EU and Spain need so much stuff bying from the US, only makes that US citizen pay 100% more for EU stuff, they need, eg machinery for manufacturing microchips, which are patented and manufactured in the Netherlands. Meanwhile the EU trading with China, Canada, Taiwan, India and building the Southern Common Market, which will be the worldwide biggest trading zone in history. The US, who is?Ah, yes, crappy cars, food and Levis, less if cientifics are leaving the US due to heavy cuts in science and research (exept military).
The same guy that says that he doesnt care in the slightest about the little person’s budget. Trump, everyone.
