how soon will Trump back down over tariffs

[Notch7]

I have finally worked out Trump's thinking

Yeah, he thinks like a c***

Once you start from there it all makes sense

 

[fillyboy]

EU doesnt have restrictive trade practices

 

[JohnD]

I don't consider him to be warm and welcoming, with hidden depths.

 

[motorbiking]

It is a block ya muppet

You think EU law applies to the US.

He can do as he likes. Ya muppet.

 

[MNW67]

You think EU law applies to the US.

He can do as he likes. Ya muppet.

Presumably the EU can do the reverse and target individual US states.

 

[motorbiking]

I think that was certainly on the table.

Though harder to enforce.

Why is it harder to enforce?

 

[JohnD]

They toyed with targeting bourbon.

 

[MNW67]

No, just sweaty and smelly with weird hair.

 

[motorbiking]

Why is it harder to enforce?

Nothing would stop an export being routed through a hub. There is no origin concept between states.

 

[motorbiking]

Lies and liars I call out, yes.

When you say call out do you mean post them.. For example.

Here's Trump telling folk to inject bleach to cure covid whilst his advisors cringe in horror.

Lies

As you said above, the EU don't need to respect US law. They could insist on it.

But anyway, going back to your original point, what did you mean when you said Trump should not have treated EU as a bloc. Do you mean different tariff rates for different EU countries.

 

[Notch7]

Name them then.

Your claim the EU is protectionist with restrictive trade practices is based on your false Brexit beliefs.

If EU has restrictive trade practices how come it’s a major trade partner to so many countries?

PS America has restrictive trade practices: have you not heard how they negotiate trade deals: “we fax our demands to you, sign and return”

 

[MNW67]

America has restrictive trade practices

I would imagine that between the US and EU such practices roughly balance out.

It is very hard to find good information, though.

Lies

Nonsense.

Commentators, the press and news agencies alike, all reeled in horror at what he was suggesting at that public announcement.
"...inject it INSIDE THE BODY bah blah blah..."
It's only hornsmokers like yourself that attempt to distort what he said.
Lies my arse.
