How do you think Trump's tariff threats are affecting Europe?

It’s like you go to, let’s say, Starbucks, and buy coffee from them. Starbucks gives you coffee, you give them money. Starbucks isn’t buying anythIng from you. You have trade deficit with Starbucks now.

That’s what Trump effectively did.

To punish Starbucks, you impose a tariff on yourself, so now you are paying 20% more for the coffee.

By “taking advantage” Trump means trade deficits, which actually only means that Americans like buying European goods for U.S. dollars.

I feel that Monday April 7 will show whether Trump can survive as the president. If the markets crash, then the world economy is in grave danger.

The Europeans will be able to design a trade policy to minimize the effects of the U.S. committing economical harakiri.

I can’t think of another time in the U.S. history when one man put the entire global economy into a recession on a whim.

Stock markets are crashing around the world, as funds are trying to sell shares, fearing uncertainty and bankruptcies that may follow Trump’s tariffs implementation on April 9.

That requires a stable genius.

As a NATO/Ukraine supporter, since you're so blown away and angered by Trump putting Zelensky in his place yesterday, why don't you support the Ukraine by joining the Ukrainian army? There's 200,000,000+ of you. Put your money where your mouths are.

Bad, bad Starbucks.

Europe has China on speed dial — as well as Canada, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.

Trump is saying that he won’t enter into talks with Europe on lifting tariffs ”unless they pay us a lot of money on a yearly basis, number one for present but also for past” — because apparently Europe was “taking advantage” of America.
