Pathetic loser shit
It’s genuinely impressive how both idiotic and cucked the leaders of every western country are.
Do you think this will work??? Do you think this will save you??? Of course it wont you fucking moron!
Here’s what capitulating to Donald Trump does for you: Gets tariffs implemented on your goods while also pissing off your domestic base.
There’s no flying under the radar and hoping to squeak by without Trump and the US noticing. The proper move is to say “Whatever the US does to us we’re doing double to them” and plan on cutting off all trade with the US.
We don’t even produce anything! Just buy stuff from China like you were already doing anyway! If you need gas get it from Russia! The only countries actually harmed by cutting off literally all trade with the US are Canada, Mexico, and China, all of which have been proving that the best course of action is to say “Eat shit Donald” and then enjoy the highest approval ratings of any politician in your country for a decade
As individuals? It might. They might be able to skim enough off the top of all this to retire somewhere nice after they've completely destroyed Europe.
California is very important for the EU. It's not about losing cheap goods from the US, it's those tech services they need/want. You can bet they'll cave to buy time to try and build/find a more local solution.
Well they were until somebody
destroyed a certian pipeline.
