Summary
Donald Trump has announced plans to impose 25% tariffs on the European Union, claiming the bloc was “formed to screw the United States.”
While details are pending, he suggested the levies would target cars and other imports. The EU, a major U.S. trading partner, has vowed immediate retaliation, with potential tariffs impacting $29.3 billion in exports.
French President Emmanuel Macron had attempted to dissuade Trump, urging focus on China instead.
Critics, including economists and conservative media, warn the tariffs could harm the U.S. economy.
Trump pretends to be a victim in everything, so this is nothing new
It seems to be a cornerstone of conservatism.
It’s like how PP up in Canada stubs his toe and blames Trudeau for it.
Trudeau put the coffee table there, and he would get rid of it if the people would just elect him.
