  • Trump’s EU deal averts disaster. But everyone’s still annoyed

    From cnn.com

    The United States and the European Union avoided the worst-case scenario: a damaging, all-out trade war between allies that threatened to raise prices on a large number of goods and slow two of the world’s largest economies. The framework delivered a sense of relief for both sides – but few are cheering the arrangement itself. The agreement, which sets a 15% tariff on most European goods entering the United States, is higher than the 10% tariff Trump put in place on April 2 and significantly higher than the average of around 2% from before Trump’s presidency. But it’s significantly less than the enormous ... (full story)

Meanwhile life expectancy is being shortened in the US under your allmighty president while in EU it is continuing to go up so shove your trade deal up your ego and keep it.. We have very good alternatives here in the EU to continue to stable grow.
Yes, like grow your socialism, mass immigration and set the stage for your part in bringing on the destruction of Israel and the Millennium; things you should be absolutely proud of!

You don't even know the definition of a "dictator." Education?? You obviously don't display much. You obviously don't have a clue on how the EU, as well as NATO, has treated the US for decades. They have never paid their fair share since WW2. And it's not our "mighty" president. The past few decades were due to "deep state" presidents from the Reagan years up to the Moron that just left the White House. And no, YOU can't see what's on the horizon. If you live long enough you will see that I am right about where Europe is headed. And I'm not advocating for Israel, although I do believe in the Savior and the teachings of the Bible and other scripture. Prophets has already foretold the future and Europe doesn't play a very good role in it. And, "mass killings?" Yes, it's tragic that innocent people are being used as puppets by terrorists. But this hatred has been going on for decades ever since Esau sold his birthright to Jacob; perhaps you don't know the history. Do you even believe in the prophesies of the holy prophets? Do you even believe in the Bill of Rights and the US Constitution as being endowed by the hand of Deity? If not, what do you believe?

{quote} Socialism is always better than a dictatorship when you are raising a family. Continue cutting on education and research.. Only 11 to 15% is industry in the US the rest are services and youre almighty president with all the disruption is creating a big toll on all normal citizens. You cannot even see what is on the horizon. And dont even start advocating for israel because that is pure stupidity you must be proud of the mass killings that happen there.

Trump is the Almighty Leader who showed the Art of the Deal to EU led by bureaucrats who do not have balls to fight for the continent's interest.
