  1. Trump negotiating with himself as usual.

    Countries have realized that they only have to say nothing and he’ll cave every time.

  2. Who could have possibly seen this coming, other than everyone?

  3. “Wolf! Wolf!” the boy cried for the twentieth time and no one gave a fuck

  4. You can hear how the last shreds of the US’s credibility as a country are sinking into the swamp, not to emerge ever again.

  6. These tariff changes are somewhere north of fifty so far.

  8. Impotent powerless little boy. Why would you even start this fight in the first place, Europe was eating out of American’s hands, to the point where American companies were getting special treatment beyond European companies. Now it’s a fair game and they’ll be treated like tourists, pay up.

  11. It’s getting hard to follow-up all the delays date with all the countries. Need a flowchart to follow all the BS.

    You know what, never mind. Pretty Don McNugget will change his idea again next week.

  13. His negotiation tactics are shit. He doesn’t even know what he’s doing.

    Art of the Deal folks

  15. Sometimes I think that we should institute a long term approach of not reacting to any American ultimatum for 6 months.

    We are about long term planning and the EU is “so slow”. Right.
    Let’s go to sleep for 6 month and weather the storm.

    Then and only then, reassess the situation. I don’t know if it’s stupid but I am sick of the ADHD behaviour of the USA.

    How do you deal with perverse narcissists. You use the Greystone method. You simply ignore their provocations and they end up losing interest.

    Well I am not sure this is a sound way to go ahead. But we can’t be in a reacting mood constantly. It’s tiring.

  16. He’s folded every time on his tariffs, throws them out at random, yet seems increasingly frustrated when they’re having less and less impact…

  18. US is run by a buffon, not by a president.

    It was expected to happen like this.

  19. yep. Pusses out as usual. A weakling president just like his voter base

  21. And trumpy is the first to blink yet again, see ya in July for the next part of this charade

  22. Just another case of inside trading. Announce tariffs on friday to crash the markets while they are open and than postpone the tariffs on sunday so that they open on green

  24. Is this the art of the deal he talks about?

    Setting a tariff and then delaying it because the other side didn’t budge.

  26. At this point, this is simply market manipulation.

  27. Ya know…I’m starting to get the feeling this monstrous asshole doesn’t know how an economy works

  30. So tired of this guy. Shut the fuck up or just put the tariffs up.

  31. Dump on Friday afternoon, pump on Monday. Your standard issue market manipulation.

  32. More evidence of the TACO strategy in action: Trump Always Chickens Out…..
