Donald Trump announces plans to hit the UK, Denmark and other European countries with a 10% tariff on “all or any goods” exported to the US from 1 February

In a post on Truth Social, the US president says these will remain in place until “such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland”

    Sooooooo

    When exactly is the entire world going to realize that negotiating ANYTHING with the Cheetos monkey is absolutely useless as he’ll just break any agreement whenever he wants?

    Give him a finger and he’ll go for your hand.ngive him your hand and he’ll want your arm

    It will never stop untill the entire world goes against him, united. Put up an economic blockade. No more trading with the US, at all, until their entire government has been replaced and overhauled, no more presidents

    Yeah, that will be very painful for everyone, I’m sure, but in the lonrun it’ll be worse continuing whatever the fuck this is

    If Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and Canada can join together in blocking trade with this asshole, he will be fucked

      This is natural, but those in power are under a delusion: there will be a change at the mid-terms and then the next presidential election. The same one they had with Trump’s first presidency.

      It’s bonkers how they never learn and how much they seem convinced that there will be mid-terms and a next presidency when everything points to a slow but constant regime change.
