THE ALLIES OF THE USA R APPALLED AND THE IRREVERSIBLE SCENARIO HAS MADE THEM LEARY OF THE LOSSEY GOSSEY LINE OF THINKING BY OUR ''ART OF THE DEAL'' LEADER....APPARENTLY THERE IS A 1951 "TREATY'' ALREADY IN P[LACE THAT IS INTACT AND
WORKING JUST FINE.....CAN U SAY ''OOPS' I DID NOT KNOW THAT....(DO THE RESEARCH)
Do you really think each and every one of our European trading partners is willing to give up on the American consumer market because of President Trump?
Think Germany will willing to give up 20% of their auto sales because Trump is impossible to deal with? Especially if Italy's Meloni sucks up to Trump and he pulls tariffs on Italian products like wine, pasta, and automobiles?
Berlin might want to, but they cannot afford to walk away.
Compare Mexico and Canada. Sheinbaum gave Donald Trump hundreds of imprisoned cartel members and many of Trump's other demands and now has fewer tariffs. Canada? They still stand defiant. Meanwhile Alberta is wanting to secede and possibly join the United States.
Canada hates fossil fuels, and Alberta makes a lot of money that way. Trump and the US still love fossil fuels.

I THINK THEY R TRULY TIRED OF THE BULLSHIT AND WILL OPTION A NUCLEAR REMEDY (NOT THE MUSHROOM CLOUD)......SOME WILL ACQUIESCE,SOME WILL OUTWIT HIM,SOME WILL SHOW COURAGE AND CALL HIM ON HIS STUPID STANCE.....U R NOT THE KING OF THE WORLD.
HA, Europe would collapse even faster than what is already happening if they decoupled from the US. They cannot defend themselves and their economies (except for Poland and Hungary) are hot garbage. Just like with Canada, the US holds all the cards.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

The US could survive without the EU. The EU could not survive without the US. Especially now that the EU has imported dangerous amounts of third world countries and not having spend enough on their own defense. Sitting ducks waiting to be conquered.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
I THINK U HAVE A MISUNDERSTANDING OF HOW SCREWED R ECONOMY IS....TRUMP SAYS IT IS THE BEST EVER.....I AM SURE THOSE THAT PARTICIPATED IN THE RICHES BEYOND BELIEF SCHEME,PONZI...THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST SO MUCH MORE INTELLIGENT AND SAVVY AND SMIRKED AT THOSE THAT WERE NOT IN THE "KNOW"........THAT IS THE SCENARIO I SEE,YES THE 1% R HAPPY AS HELL....99% R MAD AS HELL AND IT IS GOING TO COME BACK TO BITE BIG MOUTH TRUMP IN THE BUTT.
The Economy is fine. And will remain fine.
The world is learning Trump makes a tariff threat, sees if the nation submits, and if not, he lowers the tariff.
