Trump threatened to impose more tariffs against the European Union after the bloc levied a €2.95 billion fine against Google for violating anti-monopoly laws.

Let’s build a new world order, but without the USA
And he he still hasn't lobbied any consewuences at the Kremlin who continually violets his "2 week" window. This is because he is a enemy asset, and needs to be removed from office. Immediately. Americans need to stand up, right fucking now.
Fuck off, America.
A lot of Americans need to come to terms with the fact that for much/most of the world Trump is the brand, face, and personification of the US today. And the rest of the world doesn’t need to be lectured about it.
America is the whole continent. United States and the fucking gringoes are the one to blame.
I am no longer an American...I am a Californian!
Hard to put it more succinctly than this, but just to add a bit more depth to all the Americans trying to justify themselves in response - FUCK OFF AMERICA
It's not America doing this. It's TRUMP. And, we hate him as much as foreigners do.
We should be honest to ourselves. Trump won the popular vote. Because of his anti immigration policies. His cheap racism. His economic positions. This is his second turn. Nothing new here. Just missing checks and balances...
I tell that as an east German leftist. Don't lie to yourself to make it look less scary. Less disgusting. Doesn't help. Even if half the left in East Germany still thinks, that the whole Nazi scum in this region is the result of transformation fractures.....
Foreigners? How about other countries.
It's not trump doing this: he would be any other crazy guy writing shit on worthless paper if he didn't have the the American public behind him. It takes 2 men to lift him up and put him in a padded cell. Out of millions of Americans.
Based on videos taken at all the town halls, I don't think he has the American public behind him. And, those still supporting him are scared of retribution. Get an independent organization to do the polling, not the Republican Party.
Nah, it is America. Trump didn't elect himself.
I didn't elect him!
Okay, but it's important to hold everyone responsible accountable. 100 million nazis voted for Trump, 100 million nazi collaborators didn't vote against him.
It is America doing it. The people who voted for Trump ARE FUCKING IDIOTS. The people who push bothsides crap ARE FUCKING IDIOTS. The people who didn't bother to vote ARE FUCKING IDIOTS.
State of our fragile democracy! Lots of people just don’t care!
Electoral college, gerrymandering, increased restrictions on voting, removal of voting rights for incarcerated people (largest prison population in the world), and serious allegations of voter fraud also have something to do with it
Trump was installed.
The people who insist on the most loserish dem politicians in modern history are FUCKING IDIOTS. how abot we get some real options.
I voted against him so..... thanks for not calling me a fucking idiot. XD
You are only referring to about half of the country. Please familiarize yourself with the states who defeated Trump at the polls. We do NOT fall into your categories.
The largest group in the last election was the roughly 40% of people who couldn't be bothered to vote. If you can't drag yourself up once every four years to stop an authoritarian dictator coming to power, you're actually worse than the idiots who did vote for him.
Agreed. Much of that apathy came from the hard Left, because…Gaza.
Actually 2/3rds - 1/3 voted for him, 1/3 didn't bother to vote so those 2/3rds gave him power.
I blame the third who didn’t vote despite knowing what a fascist he is. The “ purity” voters whose purity has brought us to the brink of destruction of our democracy. They whined about Harris, but they had already known Trump would be worse and he is far worse. FOAFO
It never ceases to amaze me how various people didn't vote for Harris, which was effectively a vote for Trump, because of her position on Israel and Palestine. The stupidity was off the charts. Don't vote for someone you mildly disagree with so someone you completely disagree with gets into power...
But that is exactly what the hard Left always does with unwavering predictability. Look at how they currently demonize Newsom because they erroneously “interpret” his position on trans athletes to include all trans people, just as they do with the unhoused, and they will excoriate any objections.
But, did they ever listen to what Harris said? I didn't care for her in the 2020 race. But, she became a seasoned leader as VP and would have been a whole lot better than the idiot now in office. People have to get over having a woman in charge. The world accepted them centuries ago.
No they didn’t listen because they kept spouting the “genocide” trope, and they still do, as if it all went away under Trump. When one brings up the point, they still belabor it and they will scream and call you a fascist for pointing out that just maybe she might not have the same policy.
Tried pointing out how Trump has been far, far worse than Biden-Harris to one of those, and they insisted it didn't matter. Both were equally bad to them. Now Gaza is being bulldozed to become a golf course & resort while the people are sent off to camps. Yet they are dead silent.
Yeah, funny how that works, isn’t it? They mostly just want to divide the factions on the Left into in- fighting because trying to get them all united on all issues is like herding cats!
How do you ensure your next election isn’t rigged? I’ve a feeling you’re stuck with this party, for the foreseeable 😟
It well might be. But we gotta do what we can.
But we see very little fight, so yea you may not have voted for him, im POSITIVE that musk worked the tally , but you HAVE to fight this regime, otherwise the world thinks you approve!
Because it isn't televised. Theres daily protests against the regime, but they're called "music festivals" to get around algorithm suppression.
Yup, the networks let Trump bully them so they never cover it, independent media has been at least.
This is how you protest a fascist takeover. Seen anything comparable in your street?
My hometown is a village. But I would refer you to NYC, DC, and LA, where yes. There are comparable numbers.
And it is ABSOLUTELY true that the American media will NOT televise the protests. By order of the Trump regime.
Rachel Maddow does every Monday night!
Sorry, but when a population rises and takes the streets, the world sees it. American television is not the only media on this planet. Conspiracy mindset seems to be the norm these days in the US.
Do you think protests would have stopped Hitler?
Hitler was stopped by many allied nations coming to Germany and Europe with troops and planes and tanks and heavy armament. Therefore, is YOUR country ready to do that for us? No? Talk is very cheap, mon Ami.
IMHO, you’re mixing stories: So far, you have an isolationist autocrat. Nobody would have intervened if he had remained inside Germany’s frontiers. If Trump decided to invade an EU country, we wouldn’t sit on our hands.
I don’t know what should be done but I’m sure “protests” isn’t the path to get rid of this goon. Yes, that’s difficult but for your own sake, I hope you find a way.
Haven’t been listening to our governor? Just what exactly are you expecting by way of “fight”? All three branches of government are controlled by Republicans. If you mean physical rebellion, May I remind you that troops, armed for war patrol American streets while it’s MAGA who have all the arms.
True - what's your plan though? Just wait and hope it doesn't get too bad for you and the people you love? Sounds much more confrontational than I meant it to tbh, I am genuinely interested in what's going on in the minds of people who do not support Trump & Co.
First, try telling me just WHERE are you posting from? Because it always appears that the folks who most want to see our blood in the streets via armed rebellion are NOT living here, but posting from their safe and cozy abodes outside our borders. Is that YOU? We won’t perform for your amusement.
Canada - but honestly it really wasn't meant as criticism at all. I actually believe that saying 'I will sit tight and hope for the best' would be a totally legitimate answer. I am pretty sure for a while I would probably do that as well if I lived in the US, I prob wouldn't risk my life protesting.
And if I say for a while, I mean that when it gets too much I would probably rather leave the country than risking to get into some sort of revolution.
So you give up? And leave it just to the political status quo? Ask how did that work in 1938? Then read a history book! The ONLY thing to stop an autocracy is THE PEOPLE! the people ordinary folks, need to stop the steal!
You aren’t an American are you? Because it’s ALWAYS those who do not face the most well equipped and well funded fighting force on the planet who are the first to tell us to “rise up”. Easy to do from the safety and comfort of your own borders. Hold on while I get my pitchfork. Trump wants that! 🤨
BTW, it wasn’t the “people” who saved Europe from Hitler, it was an alliance of nations including America. So when the fuck are your troops coming to rescue US? Yeah….thought so. *crickets*
This is the political equivalent of "not all men". Please stop it.
Why? Truth hurts your narrative?
Do you think we sorted the good and the bad Germans/Austrians after WWII?
77 million people voted for Trump. For perspective, that's less than a third of the population and 49% of the number of people that voted. Additionally, the election could have been rigged since Trump is the first president since Reagan to win every swing state. Seems unlikely for someone like Trump
It's 2/3 + of America doing it. Only around 1/3 of Americans are not to blame, although every citizen had a part in this debacle with piss poor attitudes and their disgusting consumerism.
This is literally what America voted for and today has mostly not at all changed their minds about
🖕
Bully
Big tech should join forces and not comply with EU censorship, backed by tariffs
Nobody forces US companies to do business in the EU. If they do, they have to follow the law. These laws protect EU citizens' rights. If the US companies don't want to follow EU law, they are welcome to leave. It's really simple. BTW, the fine against Google has nothing to do with censorship.
There should be an exemption for US tech companies to these ridiculous rules. This can be agreed in a new trade deal. Vd leyen should bend the knee
Exactly 👍
Funny how things are reported both sides of the pond. Many in the US still think they have more freedoms, and are less censored, than their European cousins. This wasn't true prior to Trump and is certainly not true since Trump.
Trump is right !! EU is censoring the internet , this dictatorship behaviour should be punished
The fine has nothing to do with censorship. It is for a violation of anti-monopoly laws. You are wrong, and so is Trump.
Just hurts his “emergency” argument even more as his regime readies itself to argue in the SCOTUS. That nitwit loses the thread daily.
😡
I'm sure the EU is really concerned! They know they aren't the ones who pay the tariffs, it American importer pays them and passes the cost on the to customers who buy the stuff.
Tbf, there is some feedback on non-US companies with a market in the US. Demand goes down, which means they have to raise prices on their product to keep up with costs. But it is unlikely that dividends for investors will be affected to any great degree.
Even toddlers don't throw temper tantrums like this scumbag of a man. The people that voted for this human caricature should be vilified for life
Lots of them are simply uneducated stupid and brainwashed by MSM. I would rather go after all the enablers - the GOP in House and Senate, SCOTUS etc. In particular those who gave him a pass on the second impeachment for Jan 6th
"Tariff" and "bomb" are the only tools in his foreign policy toolkit.
Grow a spine Europe...
We are. Even our politicians will. The US will lose all their goodwill in Europe.
Not enough. The US-EU deal is a disaster... For Europe. And now Trump shows, it's not worth the money it was written on...
I would definitely like for us to move faster…away from the US. No deal with the US is worth anything.
Did he stop to think why the fine was at record level
Get ready Google, Trump wants that €2.95 billion in his pockets…he’ll be there to collect real soon…sooner than you think.
This corrupt sonofabitch!
Grateful someone is standing up to corporations! Grateful for the EU!
He wants big tech’s submission, but not if someone else does it.
That's how bullies work.
POS
How do you say "Che si fotta!" in English?

"There are still a staggering number of records that have not been made public in the case. Among them: Epstein’s draft 2008 indictment on sex-trafficking charges Search-warrant records for Epstein’s various properties in 2005 and 2019", and many more. The Herald let me read this one article.
Agreed, I am still waiting for the financial records the Treasury Department is holding per Senator Wyden's investigation.
Fuck Trump,. And fuck US.
So basically he wants to run Europe too
🤣🤣 such a crooked demon 🏴☠️
Could be that they're up to no good in the old place and Uncle will (try to)get 'em a pardon anyways (once they profess fealty at their love-in sesh and pay up).Where does straight business go now? What a dog's dinner!
Imagine being a business trying to navigate commerce with the US in this environment. Trade conditions could change dramatically for almost any reason at almost any time. Wild scenes.
Just wait for what the entire free world is going to do to us and deservedly so!
the emperor of shit can die
Boycott all American businesses.
Wow, so I get to pay even more, because the EU is doing something "bad" like holding Google accountable for it's actions.
YAY!!!🤣🤣🤣
Trump threatens everyone and everything. Tariffs are paid by the US consumer; Don has chosen to weaponize it. Other countries will simply create new trade agreements with other countries without the US participation. At this point, all of Don's actions are intentional => he is not a public servant.
Time to kick Trump OUT OF EUROPE
Let him raise tariffs as much as he wants. Yes, it creates some hardships, but it damages the US more. Manufacturing in the US becomes a nightmare if tariffs depend on the village idiot's bowel movements. The 🍊💩🤡 administration is doing everything they can to make the US irrelevant. ꓯSꓵ
Trump’s sticking up for his mates who break the law
European Union: Tell Dumbo to stuff it👽
Everyday I read about government tarrifs and levies. Just call them what they are … tax!!
yeah dude i love capitalism oh my god dude hell yeah i love paying way more on healthcare than most countries do because I LOVE CAPITALISM MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY FUKC PEOPLE MONEY IS ALL I CARE ABOUT I FUCKIGN LOVE MONEY MAN MONEY MONEY DOLLAR DOLLAR
So he’s taxing Americans every other day HE gets angry at some country who offends him. Where the hell is our say in this? Seems like “taxation without representation”. America shake up Congress! Do something!
Fuck off Trump. We set the rules in Europe
His Tariffs are illegal and absolute nonsense. Tariffs are to be used like a surgical knife whether for political purposes or to help specific US industries. This cudgel approach just drove India into the arms of China. WTF is wrong with Congress that they just sit there and do nothing.
They have emasculated themselves in the quest to protect what little personal power and wealth remains to each individual. There are obviously a few notable exceptions, but not many.
Yes, the EU will be affected by higher tariffs. But not as much as US citizens. The US government could accept the fact that Google violated the law.
The way I look at it it’s none of US government’s business. If google broke the EU’d law that’s between those two. I’ll bet Don Don somehow has a way of making a profit by helping google.
Yeah, probably a simple "I'll get the EU to back down and you pay me half of what you would have paid them" type deal.
Interfering with other country’s judicial systems is not a threat to our national security. The orange stain did the same thing to Brazil. Now to the EU. All of this after demolishing the US judiciary. And the Supreme Corrupt will continue to let him trample the Constitution.
Tariffs have little effect if no one is doing business with you.
The man looks like death, why aren't you reporting on that!
Google is being championed by a rapist pedophile, If that isn’t enough to turn on them I don’t know what is.
He is simply a trouble maker with no particular reasons for why he does what he does . Rather his natural Inclination Is to be the boy who pulls wings off flies and then laughs as they crawl in circles and then watches briefly while they die .🤮🤮
Ah, so this is why the Big Tech oligarchs are kissing Trump’s ass. They want to use him as a junkyard dog against European regulators.
You have to ask yourself why a country is defending a company. More specifically, why Americans will be paying more for it.
He wants 2b bribed! Is trying to extort hard cash under the table from EU nations and are not falling for it! The legal system in EU is unlike America’s! They’ll be charged and sent to prison regardless of who they are! No one going to put self on the line for Trump and sent to prison for bribery.
I wish you'd describe this correctly. Donald Trump is threatening to tax the American people more. That's all tariffs are; a series of sales taxes on imported goods, put in place to fund his "Big Beautiful Bill" tax cuts. A total scam, like everything he does.
He has no authority to make tariffs.
Europe is now enslaved to the US.
Fuck the 🍊 🦆 Trump
We are fed up with the threatening. In our rule of law there is no threatening alowed. America if you want to keep us as your friend and aly better get your act together. 🙃
Does he have shares in Google?
The orange Führer hasn’t figured out that if you add enough tariffs, what you have achieved is an embargo. No trade = zero tariff revenue.
EU: "You want to tax your own people more until we back down? Carry on."
Folks, folks...it's a waiting game for the Cankles. I know, it painful and slow, but it will happen. Remember: He sundowns bigly every day. His Handlers run the show and he's just a prop and a vessel to weave nonsense. The WH is freaked out and it's obvious.
He should not protect Google. They need to abide by the laws of each country. They are way ahead of the U.S. in protecting their populations from tech abuses.
Takeaway, Trump is pro-monopoly as long as its an American company that has the monopoly. As if anyone thought any different.
Google are not the good guys. Here they are assisting a genocidal government www.middleeastmonitor.com/20250904-goo...
And this is some of the shit Trump knows about and that’s why he wants to protect google.
"I'll show them, I'm going to tax our own citizens EVEN HARDER."
Wanna be dictator....
We should just block all the US tech companies and build our own in Europe.
Remember when people said "Yeah, they're all the same". Cretins.
Not just idiots in USA though. I had a guy tell a New Zealand based group that Trump had stopped “abortion at birth” which the Democrats had previously allowed. They walk among us!!!
Heavy investments of the silicon billionaires in New Zealand promoting right wing racist evangelical conspiracy theories. Buying up properties and building bunkers to prepare for atomic war end of the world scenario. Thiel and friends
Don't forget the second part..."in some cases after birth" that to date, I do not recall a single media outlet ask..."err, how does that work exactly?" And his stupid supporters just accept it!!!
He's justified assuming a power he doesn't legally have on the basis of a national emergency of some kind that he hasn't really defined. How is a legal judgement against a multinational corporation an emergency? Explain it to me like I'm a complete moron.
I'm sure that this type of action was found to be unlawful and he is appealing to his compliant mates
The U.S. is not his company, although he thinks it is…how did a 🤡 get elected?
The clumsy Dingus Don is running out of feet to shoot.
Because Trump hasn't created enough chaos with his tariff policies, despite the rising anti-American sentiment and the fact that his tariffs are hobbling the US economy.
See what contributing millions to an inauguration buys you? Protection-Isn’t that a mafia thing 🤔?
He is mad. Mentally ill mad. He thinks that he is “King of the World” and that everyone must “kiss the ring” 🤦🏻 Someone needs to tell him to fuck off!
They need to have lunch with Trump. C'mon, play ball!
Tech companies in cahoots with the Trump administration to pad their pockets. I wonder what Trump’s getting in return? 🤔 Our elections are at risk.
So every time there is something what doesn't please Mr. Orange Clown there will be more tariffs. btw. 45% of Americans still supports Trump.
The orange elephant in the room? Trump! Trump is a vindictive juvenile bullying twat! He has no sense of ethics, diplomacy or decency! He is a global embarrassment and debases America in front of fawning allies and gloating enemies!
Couldn’t agree more.
Little Hands hasn't worked out America might be stupid enough to let him rule but the rest of the world isn't. Go fuck yourself.
Now the Orange Turd wants to control the world with his threats. No one should buy into this
This fool is going to ruin the world’s economies, just give him six more months, way until Americans see what their share of health care premiums are in January.
An mafia leader ( small one) mentality
Meh.
Isn’t he dead yet?
he smells like he is.
No one cares about his #trumptax. No one.
I heard tennis fans are next group to have tariffs!
Is this a textbook example of "business protection"? 🤔 If every fine is met with tariffs, how can international rules be enforced? What are your thoughts on this "Google-protecting diplomacy"?
Why is everyone afraid of a bone spur laden,cankel infected , improper makeup 💄 man? Let him do what he wants it doesn’t affect him at all
Having been paid by the Tech Bros, Trump comes to their aid.
Why the fuck should Trump even care if other countries fine Google for obvious violations? Besides, his personal likes and dislikes are NOT legitimate reasons to impose tariffs. C’mon SCOTUS, grow a spine!
Yay! We the people get to pay more on top of the current more!!!
So he’s charging Americans for Googles fine? He’s a dick!
All ofmhis tariffs are going down...unless he has blackmail matetial on the justices...although alito and thomas will do it because they want democracy to fall
Trump is the biggest 🤡 in the world.
there are no trade deals with a demented old man and his enablers
Bring it on Trumpy
Definitely should get rid of google in Europe
I guess the IDIOT in Chief did not understand when the Court rules his Tariffs are ILLEGAL since CONGRESS did not pass legislation to put them in effect.
Can we just move on from the US and reestablish relationships when some adults are in charge. The world doesn't need America, their empire will fall just like Rome but the world kept going.
You mean he's threatened to tax Americans even more.
Does he know that ICC can make an “Embargo Statement” to USA??
I don’t see how all this isn’t going to eventually just collapse on him.
Didn't a court rule the tarrifs were illegal! Wtf. If it takes 8 months to stop executive over reach we need to fix that
Trump supports companies that break the law.
Let's keep our back straigkt this time.
Most countries really don’t need us anymore. I would boycott everything American. Tell Felonious Chump to shove his tariffs up his fat ugly ass!
If you give in to a blackmailer, as von der Leyen did, then you will continue to be blackmailed. Could we perhaps consider a licence fee for US corporations?
More tax on Americans, dumb mother fucker moron
I hope the EU says FU to the Orange dipshit!
The tech companies deserve the fines.
Crony capitalism. The entire administration is one big fraud designed to extort money from everyone.
The Judge decided they were illegal!!! Who's going to STOP HIM!!!!???
Punish the EU,they should be more worried about protecting their people from migrants and not Google
I for one am much more afraid of silicone valley corporate monopolies than any migrant looking for a better life. If you are not then racism has blinded you to your better interests
At what stage does the EU grow a backbone! How many more defeats? Trump is Trump he will not change, what he sees as weakness will always be exploited…
Hit them with a 200% Tariff. 😂
“When fashion does political satire better than late-night TV. 😂👌” viralstyle.com/c/7EL33w
He's just a joke
EU is calling TACO's bluff. Trump is the epitome of the ugly American created after the election of a Black man as president The US is a racist, misogynistic country, and we will now pay the ultimate price for failing to understand that civil rights are only possible in a representative democracy.
Another stealth tax on the poor long suffering people of America.
Fine the US 5.9 billion for interfering with justice.
Someone in a local coffee joint wondered aloud whether Maduro would have Trump done after he killed people without his permission. They also said Ellen is funnier than Seinfeld 🤷♀️
He’ll continue to raise tariffs until someone (SCOTUS or congress) stops him or until the EU pays him off via cryptocurrency. Sources say his net worth has increased by $3 billion over the last 6 months.
Increased $6bn on Monday alone. He's in the trillions.
Gotta protect those tech bros at all costs....kids, not so much.
He probably told Google that he’d make the fine go away for $1.75 billion
More ILLEGAL tariffs ? 🖕
Threatening tariffs is like threatening to cut American fingers off in retaliation against Europe. Dumb & dumber
The EU ia corect....
The ILLEGAL tariffs?
Of course: anyone caught enforcing the rule of law has to be dealt with appropriately.
What an incredible bully. The Supreme Court has to take the tariff power away from his Highness. 🤴
Trump ought to get some perspective. That's coffee money for Alphabet.
Will someone rid us of this meddlesome president before he destroys the entire world order?
I still stand by google
Gosh darn, Trump, can you stop! I mean it, you're rude, obnoxious, and don't give a shit about anyone but yourself. I am so sick of you. I can't take you anymore. You deserve to be gone.
So much for a free market. Trump now wants to nationalize Google.
You did Osama bin Laden too!
You did Osama bin Laden too!
How much more would Americans like to pay, tariffs are paid by you not us
Alphabet is worth close to $3T. So, not even a slap on the wrist.
Of course he did
except one thing. Trump cannot do that. He cannot decree tarriffs its through congress. So his delusions must be put into proper context. He doesn't have the power or authority to do. Its like if I wrote down tarriffs and handed to a country. It has no legal basis.
From the outside it looks like he has already decreed tariff levels and through his stacking of the Supreme Court no matter what the legal precedent is, SCOTUS eventually gives Trump the win. It’s edging up on failed state time tbh.
Feels like it some days. Very difficult to experience as an American. Embarrassing as hell and totally against ideas that founded country. So I don’t watch news much now.
And when SCOTUS does that America is over and all bets are off. If they choose to invalidate the Constitution, they choose to invalidate the federal government. All federal power comes from the Constitution. No Constitution, no federal government.
Doesn’t SCOTUS ultimately define the law of the land tho? Those in opposition might be considered the rebels. And that’s when the round-ups begin. (They may have already begun).
It has to define within the parameters of the law as written and the Constitution. The Right calls it an “activist court” when it steps outside of that. I’ll gladly be a rebel against a tyrant and his goons.
Godspeed, brother.
So far, wherever rules that exist haven't been enforced. Every layer of government has done exactly as the dictator orders.
Kick their ass, Trump!!
Of course he did. Moron.
Epstein.
Which are illegal
#PEDO47 can go fuck himself
Tit-for-tat trade diplomacy, because Trumpstien wants to deep-6 the Epstein files. Survival mode is unbecoming.
Fuck trump 💩
Fuck off. If these behemoth companies want to operate and make money in different countries why should they be allowed to break those countries’ laws or be exempt from paying at least some taxes on the profits they make there? USA does NOT control the world.
He thinks tariffs are his personal hurt feelings fund
Who was the first place to suck djRump's "Gulf of America" cock?
No president has worked harder to distance and isolate the US from the rest of the world.
Agreed, but point 10 needs to be in first place.
True. But I have a feeling that countries are already doing that - if for no other reason than that of pure self-interest.
Countries need to stop propping up the dollar. It's time to move to the EUR (€) as the default global currency.
How much gold did google give the pedophile?
Arteries do your thing
TACO is so clueless that he doesn't know his plan has never worked since people started trading crops and hides. Hiding inside only brings sickness and swelling ankles.
Get bent Trumpty Dumpty
Didn't the court rule that Trump's tarrifs were illegal??
This is getting ridiculous!! Let it end already…
Stop foisting US Regulation & Tax Policy on the rest of the world. Fotus, stop grifting the US people for Billions and pay your taxes and fines.
Not Capitalism
He is deranged. Increasing tariffs will just grease the skids for his failing economy.
Dumb and dumber
Trump go to Hell
I've met toddlers with more composure & leadership ability than Trump. Textbook delusional narcissism displayed publicly for 50+ years isn't news. Threatening to charge American tax payers more because him so berry, berry angwy at the EU...par for the course as well.
There goes the ASS KISSING!!!
That’s all he’s got? Tariff threats?
I'm with the side of America who wish that the next fart is is last one and his soul, black as it is, leaks down his legs into hell
Yeah yeah we don’t care fuck off
Scatter brains Trump is almost done!
Trump’s mentally unwell and must step down!
He thinks that he is a mobster and above the law. Go ahead, tax the American people more. The world is finding new trading partners because we don't want to trade with the USA anymore. The US is now the land of the greedy, home of the poor.
That is nothing new. They are now also an authoritarian shithole (Trump terminology). Maybe this will finally be the wake up call for the US to change. I doubt it though.
The European union is always fining American companies. Johnsaccone.com
Good
What's so good about it? They pass these fines onto the American consumer. We should do the same. They do the same thing with the tariffs they charge us.
They can only fine them with f they break local law. If they want to play in another country they have to play by their rules, just as everyone else has to do in the US.
They make laws targeting U.S. companies.
Which they also have to abide by so it is a level that playing field Further America doe a not play with a straight bat. Jet/Nuclear technology was stolen from the uk on a sharing agreements which was not honored, US companies have been strong arming uk/eu businesses since the second war.
If it wasn't for America... There would be no Britain. And for decades the Europeans have been charging Tariffs. Robbing us blind.
Tariffs are paid for by the consumer not the producer so the EU is not robbing the US. If you are referring to WWII, the general consensus is that the war in Europe would have still been won without US soldiers it just would have taken longer.
If tariffs are being paid by the consumer that means you're robbing the American people. These companies pass the costs of tariffs onto their customers. You shouldn't be charging us tariffs at all. And for decades we've been carrying the cost of defending you. You rob the American people.
The uk supplies a special steel for Submarines which is not made in the US. Tariffs make the steel more expensive for the US, the idea is that to avoid this America should make its own. The problem is that even though the US is paying more it is not enough to make it viable to produce it in the USA
Why is it that tariffs only make everything more expensive for the US? Do all the countries in the world know this? Or is only the US impacted? Like England, these countries have been charging Tariffs for decades. You should Warn them. Tariffs bad!
I am a retired Buying and Merchandising Director of an international clothing company with a budget in excess of £800m with 40 years of experience. Import tariffs create inflation in the country imposing the tariff NOT the supplier, which is why Trump is mad.
Nonsense. If tariffs are such a big problem: WHY IS IT THAT EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD HAS THEM. They've had them for decades. We should charge retro tariffs.
E.G. To stop dumping, protect home manufacturers, and as a form of taxation. Clearly you are out of your depth with this just look it up. I have been trading with tariffs since the late 70’s. Please have a little respect and do your research.
Sorry but you don’t get it. If a company in the EU buys an American made widget for $10 and the EU has a 20% tariff the importing company pays $10 to the US and $2 to the EU and has a new cost of $12. If the widget is then retailed in the EU the EU customer will pay an extra $5. Not the US taxpayer.
Sorry, but you don't get it. You need to tell this nonsense to all these countries that have been charging Tariffs to the US for decades. Warn them that they're hurting themselves. They're going to be paying extra for their products. Get back to US with their response.
US are 330 million people… the rest of the world is 7,7 billions. We can do something REALLY funny. But we must do it together. The empire will fall
"Monopoly Good and Very Legal, Actually" - Trump Admin
More evidence of their illegality
I really hope he gets there as the EU will eventually stop behaving like a sheep and hit back.
Trump isn't content bullying society here, he wants to knock down the sovereignty of other nations. To tell them how to run their own societies. They don't want monopolists controlling their Internet, it's their right. Where is the outrage of a dictator in the White House? We have wimps in the GOP.
He has no impulse control - does this go on until he creates the next depression?
#amerikkka. FFS. Clean up your political system and get rid of the fascist.
Attn. countries. Admit you’ve had enough, shitcan the niceties and tell this child bully to go fuck himself. Let him go nuts with tariffs. You tariff back in spades and it will put the final nail in our economic coffin. He will pay at home, already is. Only way to get rid of him. We need your help!
Problem is if we tariff back it’s us that ends up paying those tariffs just like it’s you paying the tariffs Trump has imposed on your imports. That’s why Canadians are doing a grassroots boycott of American goods and travel. It’s effective and doesn’t cost as much.
Freedom is not free. It’s either worth the price you pay or or you don’t deserve it at all.
We’re talking about trade,not our freedom.We are already free.Our PM is finding trade deals with other countries and our industries are actually starting to come back to life to fill any holes left by our blockade of US goods, so we don’t need the added expense of tariffs on your exports to us.
Yes indeed. Could you lobby him please to go and speak to our spineless PM that gave him a second state visit please!!
I’m sure King Charles must be thrilled about that. Lol! Hope you give him the welcome he so richly deserves, lots of protests and loud boos.
count on it, but he is usually a coward and just flies direct from airport to whichever Royal residence is being used - Balmoral in this case I think.
India gone Brazil gone EU gone. ….USA gone
