>In Trump's first term We're in his second term now with a very different landscape and wherever this train is heading it's just getting started. >Tariffs will just get you counter-tariffs. After Trump's direct threats to Denmark, the EU is working on a bundle of counter-tariffs to apply if needed. That will equal lost export revenue as US products get priced out of the market. Good. Denmark policies should be Denmark First, and so on. >It's better to be involved in the world than to be a hermit kingdom. We can be involved in the world without buying condoms for everyone. Note that we're not even talking about the big ones like slashing the Pentagon's budget (yet), we're literally talking about slashing the money spent on buying condoms for Palestine/Mozambique and y'all are already screaming bloody murder. I repeat: I don't really care. I don't want our taxes spent on this bullshit. Period.

> wherever this train is heading it's just getting started. Corporate tax rates won't increase. Review this in four years and you'll see that you were too optimistic. > Denmark policies should be Denmark First, and so on. They are. That's why they're in the EU. It was better to be involved with Europe than be isolated from it. Here's the cost of Brexit so far: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-cost-statistics-numbers-five-years-eu-b2689655.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-cost-s... It's not great. It was the wrong choice. > y'all are already screaming bloody murder. No one is. > I repeat: I don't really care. Nihilism won't get you anywhere. You're not even arguing if the program is effective or not. That's an actual case you can make but it requires taking an interest.
