Trump reaches trade deal with EU

So that means less tariff revenue, right?

BTW, the average tariff on US exports to the EU was about 1.34% (compared to 1.47% from the US on EU imports)...was that not "open?"

The economic impact of Trump’s tariffs on Europe: an initial assessment

 

Another fake trade deal from TACO Trump? Very cool!

 

Well done!

So what is the net gain? Serious question. The energy stuff just makes sense for the EU given Russia and ME stuff going on. Is the a definition of energy vs what we were already providing?

Or, simply there is no way to tell.

 

$750 billion in U.S. energy? Wow, that's 3 times what Russia sells them per year.

 

Half a trillion dollars direct investment in the U.S. is very significant.

 

Of course, it’s Reuters reporting this. Can you find this from something that isn’t a right-wing echo chamber?? There’s no plausible way he knows how to negotiate. Hasn’t been in government long enough.

 

Take the wins where you can. This is way way better than more trade war brinkmanship

 

YEP..EU effectively funding Russia's war effort and they want us to defend them. The 5% NATO agreement is massive as well. Good developments.....

 

But Trump is breaking with long-held traditions and not allowing our allies to fleece us. Does that not worry you? Where’s the statesmanship??

 

Meh. As they say, “the Devil is in the details”. Performative theater. The markets define the win / loss.
DOW futures +0.38%
NADAQ futures +0.54%
S&P futures 0.41%

 

Yep. You nailed it. This is just him showing off to his white ‘Murica constituency. He made those ladyboys in Europe bend the knee.

 

They should pay, and leave it to our dealmaker-in-chief to come up with a way to make the American taxpayers and the Ukrainians happy all at the same time.... win, win.

 

So American consumers get to pay 15% more on stuff imported from the EU?

 

Some folks just can't appreciate anything good for America that doesn't advance their political agenda--or in the case of the TDS infected... that doesn’t impugn DJT--becsuse their true North, since Trump threw in with the GOP in July of '15, is directly opposite Trump--their over riding catch all, means everything, litmus test...

LOL(osers)!

 

Lol!

"...serious question..."

LMAO!

 

We personally don't gain anything except higher prices and inflation. But some people's who's taxes we just lowered will be making some more money.
