Judging by the Canada/Mexico tariffs. It’s like he and his people didn’t realize retaliatory tariffs were a thing. EU can hurt the US a whole lot more than they can.

Boycotting physical products from the US won’t make much of a difference. Their real money comes from financial services and investments, not just the stuff they make.
If you really want to hit them where it matters, focus on targeting US investments. For example, heavily tax anyone putting money into US stocks. Another idea is to pull EU pension funds out of American investments, or, if that’s not possible, raise taxes on those funds like crazy. That’s probably the most effective way to push back, especially if it’s something aimed at policies like Trump’s.

EU will firmly respond by firmly buying more American products.
Spoke to Statsmin Frederiksen on the sabotage action #Nordstream.
Paramount to now investigate the incidents, get full clarity on events & why.
Any deliberate disruption of active European energy infrastructure is unacceptable & will lead to the strongest possible response.

Dear Europe please just penalize the red states like Canada did. We still love you over here in California. Sincerely, a proud dual American/European citizen.

Respond viciously. 100% tax for Tesla AND go after X. Never negotiate with bullies until you’ve bloodied their nose.

Europe could be a superpower if they didn’t handwring before making a decision. I hope they hit them hard with counter tariffs and really start looking at India, Africa and LATAM to diversify. Don’t want them doing a Starmer and seemingly doubling down on trying to reason with Mango Mussolini.

Europeans, do your part and stop buying Teslas. Let’s not support fascists. If they want a trade war, then let them have it.
Let’s make the Musk nazimobil the first victim of the trade war.

Cancelling Netflix subscriptions, avoiding Amazon products, switching Facebook + X for TikTok and boycotting Tesla will hit hard.

If Tariff is the new language of Dumbfuckistan, then EU is prepared to speak the language they understand.

Just stop buying weapons from them, that will hurt them a lot. After all, selling their weapons is the the only thing that they are good at,

Just to bring things in perspective… Canada’s oil/gas is now subject to Tarifs.
So they might sell with better margin elsewhere, let’s say EU.
And US goods of cost goes up because, of Tarifs on Canadian oil.
The US, now threatens the EU and the EU buys a lot of Oil from the US.
So what’s the plan.? …. The EU should buy more oil form Canada?

[Buy American to avoid Trump trade war, says Christine Lagarde](https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1h2uqht/buy_american_to_avoid_trump_trade_war_says/)
Or maybe it will firmly respond as with the Nord Stream destruction – meaning no response at all.
