Trump afferma di essere ottimista riguardo a un accordo commerciale con l’Europa “ci sarà un accordo commerciale del 100%”, ha detto Trump durante un incontro con il primo ministro italiano Giorgia Meloni. “Faremo affari equa.”

I know this isn’t the point, but look at the actual fucking state of him in [this](https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/apr/17/us-envoys-paris-meeting-ukraine-meloni-trump-europe-latest-updates-news#img-1) photo
How does anyone think this man is an actual functioning human being
We will see.
Meloni has no authority to speak for the EU. Even if she has previously coordinated with the EU Commission.
0% or bust.
MAYBE THEN, I consider buying your shit again.
so 150% tarrifs tomorrow?
Fair in trumps mind means europe shall agree to all of our demands
Yup same thing he said to Canada and Mexico his last term.
People do not get that Trump just wants to have state leaders come to him to beg cause this gives him a sense of importance. The man is highly insecure.
Hope Europe knows better.
“fair deal” until he farts too hard a morning and decides he’s getting screwed.
Fuck this guy.
Like Mexico paid for the wall.
It’d be hard for us and some of our companies to recover from that but I’d just love Europe would just tell them ‘FUCK. OFF.’
That’s the face of a lady that needs a market to sell Italian wine, cheese, clothes and etc at a huge markup.
so the EU said that is going to make deals with China and Donny shat his pants. nice to know that. also zero tariffs favour the EU that’s why Donny was against zero tariffs.
bring the zero tariffs coward Donny.
till I change my mind! then the deal will be unfair.
He won’t honor the deal anyway
We had trade. We didn’t need this. Fuck off.
El Salvador seems to the only real friend US has.
Fuck him.
A deal lasting 2 weeks?
… I don`t think Trump actually KNOWS what goes into making a trade deal. NO way does this man have the patience to actually take the months (or years in case of a market as big as the EU or China) it takes to make proper bilateral trade deals between nations.
Trade deals with Trump means nothing, he’s shitting on his own USMCA deals.
Make no deals with someone who’s a bully, they will cave at the first opportunity.
Good on Meloni for taking initiative
Fair for who
Why bother? Trade deals don’t mean shit to him, not even ones he signed himself (just ask Canada and Mexico about that). Appeasement doesn’t work either; Trudeau went down to Mar a Lago right after the election to kiss the ring and gave Trump everything he wanted, included more than a billion to stop the *tiny, insignificant trickle* of fentanyl going over the border. Canada still got kicked in the teeth.
So, based on his 100% remark, it’s safe to he hasn’t started negotiating with the EU at all. He is also probably mistaking ‘talking with a country (here Italy)’ with ‘dealing with the EU’ again. Much like back then, with Merkel, where she had to remind him 17 times that he needs to deal with the EU, not her.
Also, any deal made with the US will be very superficial. He breaks agreements on a whim. No way anyone is gonna be willing to make any substantial commitments with an untrustworthy partner like the US.
My god Trump is an idiot. Did he not listen when Meloni told him the fascist salute is palm down?
You mean he’s eventually going to claim victory after tanking the US economy and accomplishing nothing else. I’m not confident that she’ll call him out on this bullshit, but I’m hoping Macron and Starmer might.
Any ‘deals’ Trump makes will be nothing burgers. All this fuss basically to get nowhere. He’s looking for anything to claim a success and back out of tariffs without losing face.
Fuck that. Can’t be trusted to not break his own deals.
> Earlier Thursday, a senior administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told reporters that the massive trade deficit the U.S. runs with EU members, including Italy, “bothers the president.”
Why is that official anonymous?
Why would anybody sign a trade deal with the US? They’re just shitting all over the ones we already have.
I don’t doubt there will be a deal. There is a deal in place already. Worse case it is a WTO rules deal. Deals take years to negotiate.
Let’s see what fair according to him looks like
Hopefully Europe has a spine and isn’t willing to bend and break over this weathervane of a man child.
Be prepared to make concessions. Then, soon after declaring the new deal to be the best one ever, he will screw you for more concessions.
If you expect anything other than this, you are a complete fool.
Deals with Trump aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.
Today, he signs a contract, and tomorrow, he will break it.
And in 4 weeks after it’s done he’ll say something like “europe is scamming us with these terrible trade agreements” and start the next trade war.
A fair deal would be Europe to diversify away from big tech, banking services and strike trade deals with other countries. So we are less susceptible to Trump’s blackmailing lol.
If Europe is San Marino or Serbia, he has a point.
Meloni has no authority – this is clearly a publicity stunt orchestrated to facilitate the lie that world leaders are bending the knee and begging Trump for a deal because of the tariffs.
