  1. >Donald Trump is targeting the European Union for a potential slew of punitive trade measures designed to address long-standing grievances should he retake office, according to people familiar with his team’s nascent economic-platform discussions.

    >The two sides are still at odds over tariff increases Trump imposed in his first term as president on steel and aluminum, which were partly suspended in 2021 after President Joe Biden took office. If Trump wins in November, the EU undoubtedly will be one of his chief targets on trade, according to conversations with several Trump advisers.

  2. Pushing the EU towards other trading partners (cough cough China cough cough) is clearly a smart move.

  3. Putin’s wet dream. Breaking up the alliance from the inside is his only chance of victory and will ensure a permanent threat on the doorstep of Europe.

  4. “according to people”. every day some new “thing” trump “will do” according to “people”. why even post these silly articles. 99% of these things are clearly just political campaign nonsense

  5. Boys and Girls, we will be in for a wild ride! This paired with his statements will end the transatlantic alliance!

  6. This is just some made up garbage. Just more of the “Some people said something” kind of news. Ignore.

  7. If you think about what would be in Putin’s best interest and you’ll often see it be Trump’s policy. Even if it hurts the US itself.

  8. Ban FAANG companies from the EU, tax investing into US stocks, close the tax haven loopholes, remove dual citizenship between the US and EU.

  9. And punitive tariffs will be issued in return, as they were the last time… because the orange buffoon doesn’t know how trade works.

  10. Honestly, Europe has consistently imposed toll tariffs against the US, while the reverse is not true. Europe has historically maintained a somewhat hostile stance toward the US regarding trade. We’ve grown accustomed to the post-World War II era when the US opened its markets to the world and ensured free trade by patrolling the seas. However, the US is increasingly discontent with this arrangement, and we need to adapt to the new reality.

  11. lel… he already forgot the last time he tried that with the EU.

  12. Uh oh, a group of social media clowns struggling with basic grammar and diction will weaponize poorly edited memes to go after the European Union.

  13. Great way to destroy your country and hand the world to the Chinese 🤡EU should retaliate by pulling factories out of Red States

  14. Massive election interference expected in the next USA presidential election. The EU + allies can’t have Trump winning

  15. What makes this even worse is that there is a large cohort of Americans who want this. Why? What’s in their heads?

    Yes, most sane people dislike the current world order that is in the midst of the billionaire plague and senseless wars among billionaires’ spheres of influence, but how does it make sense to support a foreign power block instead of your own?

    Tump is not an anarchist, he is an immoral, criminal traitor and everyone who supports him is a traitor, and also morally corrupt.

  16. Cmon USA. You have CIA, FBI and other agencies. Unless you have a very long term long game plan, do something to protect your country from becoming a lone nation. You should farm allies snd prepare Earth for colonization of other planets.

  17. The fact that US still hasn’t put his ass in prison kills any hope that this orange turd will ever be stopped (short of natural death)

  18. Ayo trump

    Suck these nuts you carrot criminal phony

    Why do we take this fuck seriously. Mock him at every chance. Not like he doesn’t deserve it.
