      The European Union has described President Trump’s announcement of a 20% tariff on imports as a “major blow to the world economy,” indicating that it is preparing significant countermeasures, including tariffs on up to €26 billion worth of US goods. This response highlights the potential for escalating trade tensions and the impact on global supply chains, as both the EU and the US have substantial economic stakes in their trading relationship.

      Smart people will just boycott american products, like Coca-Cola, McDonald’s and so on

      Mark EU products with EU flag please, so we know easily what to buy

      I retaliate by not buying American crap. I already tried not to, now it’s just vendetta and I’ll go out of my way to buy European.

      Lets tax the services and the Tech.

      We need to pass this law on GAFAM tax we were talking about a few years ago

      Europe, UK and Australia are bowing down. There will be no retaliation.

      If you want to actually do a boycott that is more than symbolic, you all need to start from the big tech money-making companies. Such as Amazon, Netflix, Apple. If subscriptions are canceled, they start losing money quickly. Rather than Coca-Cola and other corporations that do most of the productions in the EU. Then start selling U.S. treasury bond en mass from your savings and dump your U.S. stocks portfolio. Then stop all travel to the US.

      Retaliation, schmetaliation, it’s not like that anything would change their minds, it’s not about Europe or anyone else, it’s about tanking and shorting the US economy.

      We should play to limit the damage to us, Europe, until they complete that.

      Europe’s ‘strong plan’ : tariffs on harleys & jeans

      thats the equivalent of sending a sternly worded letter to an incoming cruise missile attack

      The hilarious thing is most of the territories of EU countries are at a 10 % rate (French Guiana, Sint Maarten/Saint Martin etc). Instant 10% loophole.

      The worst thing is that after the departure of the Trump team and the arrival of adequate people in the government, everyone will have to restore the destroyed ties with Europe.

      Will Trump be punished for such a senseless policy?

      And Orban is out blaming the EU.
      Sometimes but not often, you actually hope some people could get into a very huge and beautiful accident.

    14. I don’t eat junk food or weird expensive coffee anyway so in a way I was already boycotting 

    15. By the looks of it (figure 8 on [this page](https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=USA-EU_-_international_trade_in_goods_statistics)) the EU is mostly importing crude oil, medicine, engines, aircraft equipment, and natural gas.

      Next figure shows that pharmaceutical products exports are vastly up, then there’s cars, machines, and aircraft.

      The worst-hit country will be Ireland, which has almost 54% of its exports to the US.

      If hitting oil, that would probably target Texas, Louisiana and North Dakota to the west of the pond and the Netherlands to the east. By chance, all these states are Republican-dominant.

      Pharma industry seems to be in a more Democratic-leaning states, but supporting European industry on the engines and motors department would probably also hit “red” states.
