Bring it!
I hope they fine Meta and X next. US job reports show that US is increasingly hit as well and it’s no wonder considering they are putting tarrifs on 100% of their imports while the EU is only getting 10% of its exports tarrifed.
Nah! EU will bow down
Funny man.
Should do reciprocal fines against EU companies, and seize equivalent amounts of EU shipping
I’m begging the EU commission to find a spine. You can’t negotiate with Trump. He only takes takes takes.
Trump: EU is making decisions which benefit citizens?! Just for that, im going to tax Americans even harder.
This is what the commission invited by bending over for the last round of tariffs.
Time to give him another 2 trillion I guess. Gotta pay the Dane tax.
No problem, Ursula will find some logical basis to agree.
this guy is burning all the bridges the us had built throughout decades among nations while china and russia, nk, india are getting closer than ever to take over the world. it’s even impressive that I might be able to witness the end of american empire while I’m alive, by it’s own president and citizens.
Couldn’t be more clear how the USA is now a country ruled by the elite of companies, rather than its citizens.
Only 3.5 billion?
This is what the fucking shitdeal with Donald Trump is worth. NOTHING.
Trump: 200% tariffs on EU for levying the fine.
VDL & Rutte: Yes, Daddy. Tariff us harder.
A very fine example of american bullshittery.
If being a bully to Europe’s shitty politicians worked for him before, why wouldn’t he do it again?
That’s not even BNP’s fine (the french bank fined by the US)…
Make it 35bn.
“Who cares if China and the US compete aggressively over cutting edge technologies that drive the next century of economic growth? Who needs to win when you can just appoint yourself the referee!”
EU is a “regulatory superpower” right? Oh ok. Then use some of those superpowers to figure this out.
European leadership and strategic foresight has been absolutely abysmal for decades. Washington has always had too much leverage over Brussels. But it’s like the EU never imagined that a US president would come along that actually used it.
You can imagine a bunch of stiff, legalistic dweebs in thick reading glasses pointing to section 3737383, paragraph 5544478775 of some incomprehensible European statute and having an existential meltdown over this
It is hard to take coercive action against firms from a country that you rely on for security
If this gets enough downvotes the EU will magically have been smart and trump will stop bullying it and apologize for trying 😂
When Americans visit Europe, they often wear T-shirts emblazoned with the word “FREEDOM” in large letters. But freedom for whom? It certainly isn’t a reality for all American citizens. As an American, I am concerned for those who are oblivious to the fact that our freedom is slowly eroding right before our eyes.
Our government was designed to have three independent branches, but it seems that some have become subservient to certain individuals. The purpose of establishing these branches was to allow each one to effectively critique and correct the mistakes of the others. However, that system appears to be deteriorating, and without these checks and balances, our freedom will not last.
If this doesn’t make it clear that Trump is abusing tariffs as a form of blackmailing, all hope is lost for the EU.
Dear EU, stop giving in to Trump’s demand. Counter his tariffs with tariffs of your own. Any economical crisis will be HIS fault and the EU can bear this.
Europe is not the US, so they have to follow the rules there.
I don’t think anyone is surprised at this. It was practically expected as soon as they announced the fine, lol.
Any costs or sanctions borne by the EU due to this should be offset by taxing these parasites even further.
This is why trade deals with the USA are worthless. They’ll shake you down whenever and however they wish.
Anyway he will find an excuse to put tariffs, so let’s do tax the GAFAM
Google makes that in a day.
OMG 😱 first Europe drags Google with billions. Now the US I like ‘tariffs incoming’💀
FUCKING CHRIST, CAN WE LIKE NOT START USv EVERYONE???
Tariff my ass, you orange Epstein lover!
