We in Europe/Netherlands can only worry a lot about what is happening in the USA. Newsom seemed a nice guy looking at the trolling but we need input from people like you to put things in perspective. Thank you for that.
Let’s hope for the best for the US and the world. Dark, very dark, days.
Every day I wonder if it could get worse, and yes it can 🤯

European postal services suspend shipment of packages to US over tariffs

Multiple postal services around Europe say they are suspending the shipment of many packages to the United States amid a lack of clarity over new import duties. Postal services in Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Italy say they will stop shipping most merchandise to the U.S. effective immediately. France and Austria will follow on Monday, and the United Kingdom on Tuesday. From Aug. 29, international goods that were previously exempt from U.S. tariffs will be subject to import duties. That applies to merchandise worth over $800. Letters, books, gifts and small parcels worth less than $100 will continue to be exempt.
