It’s an embarrassment that the Prime Minister of New Zealand is absent, apparently working from his holiday home. NZ should be standing with European countries demanding the US respect Greenland’s sovereignty. Not to mention Venezuela, Cuba, etc… and the world hasn’t even noticed our defection

1 year ago, republicans began taking our rights away, our ability to support our families, they have taken money, services from our elderly and children, kidnapped our neighbors. GOP depend on money from billionaires, We are not helpless, Boycott their Media sponsors, their brands, and businesses!

Great post! Republicans can't force us to spend money at businesses that support them The Republican Congress willingly gave the power of the country's purse to the billionaires Let us all make it clear that we have POWER of our purse! Deprive us of basic needs, we deprive you of our $$$ 👇

Have these tariffs actually worked in a sustainable way yet? Are any gains simply being overshadowed by the damage (financially and reputationally) being done?

Exactly. “I’m gonna tax my own people since you won’t give me what I want. And if you still won’t give me what I want, I’m gonna tax them even harder!”

If this succeeds, which it probably won’t, it’ll give Trump carte blanche for any whims he’ll have. A golf course in St. James’s Park or 75% on Britain. Don’t forget ongoing tariff on Canada, as Trump try to weaken it before annexation.

Any pretension of transatlantic alliance is over, I’m sure. Trump, presumably prevented from military route for now by his own advisers, os nevertheless waging an economic war. It’s basically like sanctions on Russia or Iran.

A 10% and 25% tax on goods, all paid by the people of the USA and then either spent on concentration camps or put into an offshore bank account belonging to President Pedophile and Putin. Putin must be so happy.

Just incase this isn't clear, thats and economic attack on nato to seize territory. Plain and simple US involvement in NATO is over. US bases in EU and UK should be taken back immediately.

Don't think the lesson so far on tariffs is that straightforward. Some companies share the cost and some pass it on, otherwise US inflation would be a lot higher.

Trump's tariffs go up & down faster than a whore's knickers. This is nothing more than a toddler tantrum. Really hope this is when other world leaders tell Trump to get lost. Enuf is enuf. Soon they will start sending US ambassadors home persona non grata. Everyone is tired of this blowhard.

Has it occurred to anyone in a position to do something about it that Trump and his handlers are trying to destroy the USA?

Does anyone else think that Trump's real aim is not only to have Greenland but, more centrally, to create a pretext for American withdrawal from membership in NATO?

EU not only better not cave, but must respond with higher tariffs on US exports, if not a complete embargo. This is batshit insanity, governments & republicans have to stop pretending this is normal & take a stand.
