      Honestly, this is a surprisingly sensible move from the EU. Instead of rubber‑stamping another shaky deal under pressure, they’re finally saying “We need some clarity before we commit.”

      Trump’s constant tariff threats and random announcements make the whole US trade policy look chaotic, and the EU is right to pause and ask for serious legal guarantees. If Europe keeps signing deals while the US keeps changing the rules, it’s not a partnership, it’s a hostage situation.

      Freezing ratification isn’t about being anti‑American, it’s about protecting European interests and actually acting like a sovereign bloc instead of a walk‑in customer.

      >The European Parliament’s trade chief will propose freezing the ratification process of the European Union’s trade deal with the US until they’ve received details from President Donald Trump’s administration on its trade policy.

      >Bernd Lange, chairman of the parliament’s trade committee, said he’ll propose suspending legislative work on approving the so-called Turnberry Agreement at an emergency meeting on Monday “until we have a comprehensive legal assessment and clear commitments from the US.”

      Seems reasonable when the tariffs depend on whether trumps Happy Meal contained an extra nugget or not

      It’s not like they have any choice — no point in signing a trade deal if one of the key terms is completely unknown and unpredictable.

      Of course, the same was true even before the Supreme Court blocked the tariffs, even if Trump signed a deal, he’d change the terms at the smallest of whims (and via a Tweet)

      But at least now they have a good reason to tell Trump why they aren’t signing.

      If the other side killed the deal, that is the only option I think. The president didn’t have the authority for any deal.

      Yeah, just cut them off and start selling treasuries at this point. That growth rate can always be more disappointing. Delusional pedostate that deserves to disintegrate.
