- jopsen 2y agoYes, but what's the rush here? The EU should do what does best: make things boring. If retaliatory tariffs is the way to go, maybe do it the boring way: considered bit by bit, no flashy announcement. Or just make a 10 year deal on LNG so Trump can say we're paying the US money every year.
- delusional 2y agoThat seems to be the current strategy, and I happen to appreciate it. I'm pretty mad a the US for fucking up the entire world right now, but I also realise that acting on that anger is a bad idea. I appreciate the EU having some long discussions while the emotions fade.
- kalleboo 2y ago> The EU should do what does best: make things boring Exactly, the absolute best thing the EU could do right now is project stability
- paulddraper 2y agoYou think that's gonna be the best outcome? EU already had 10% tariffs on all US autos. (Though tbf most other things were near zero.)
