In that one area alone I would agree stuff are happening, but he imposed tariffs on the EU citing WTO rules reserved for war too, and the responses has hurt local US businesses. That’s an absolutely terrible job.
- andromedavision 8y agoHaven't followed the EU trade tariffs lately but as I gathered last I checked, this was a temporary thing and he got what he wanted which was better trade terms from the EU to America. I don't see why this was a bad thing; some short term/temporary discomfort for better deals in the long run.
- pimmen 8y agoThis is a still ongoing affair, and the trade terms are still not finished. The only thing he’s accomplished is an image of the US as unpredictable and dishonest since they had no legal standing. The EU will remember this the next time the trade agreements are up for renogitation.
- vixen99 8y agoThe EU up for renogging?
- bassman9000 8y agoI thought the convo was about standing up to China. From a strategic point of view, you can't have two measuring rules (EU/China). If China is being unfair with tariffs, so is the EU.
