Except THIS is not how any of this works!....

#Trump literally lashing out against friends and neighbours will only backfire hard, and I expect @EUCommission and @europarl_en to enact #PrizeFreezes for #US #products & #services whilst forcing #Retaliatory #Tariffs on all US #products and espechally #services, demanding 100%+ in all #fees, and #revenue of #GAFAMs' services and products to the point that they'll effectively cancel half their revenue that flows back.

  • Plus forcing all products and services to be processed and sold via a #EU-based #corporation and adding a 30% "#AlienTax" as the #USA already does for i.e. #App #developers that ain't from the US even if they never sold a single license to a US customer.

Not to mention cancelling any #DataProtection agreements that only stalled the foreseeable court decision that #CloudAct is incompatible with #GDPR, thus banning #Office365 / #Microsoft365, #iCloud et. al. from the EU!

Given #Trump can't be assed to even fake any #loyality or #allied status even for the cameras, this is a #ForeseeableConsequence.

Unless we want to end up #downgraded into the state of a US-occupied overseas possession without statehood, like #Guam, #PuertoRico or #AVI...

At this point I hope the #Trump regime will choke on it's tariffs because all it does is make the #USA look unstable, uncalculateable, unreliable and draconian aka. the worst place to do business in because one cannot succeed by just following the rules of law!

And yes, the #Trump #Regime is dellusional thinking the #USA is irreplaceable when in fact it most certainly is!

#Manufacturers like "P.R." #China, #Vietnam, #Japan, #India et. al. are quick to #pivot to other #markets like the #EU and the #GlobalSouth.

  • Just like penalizing #tariffs and #taxes in #Brazil didn't really get them much #industrialization and instead merely made certain items and products just unaffordably expensive to import and buy.

The matter of the fact is that this ain't 1945: the #US needs the #world more than vice-versa, espechally since the world moves on and both #EU and #NATO will continue to exist, thrive and expand even without the USA!

And no, #Trump|s #regime will #speedrun the #dedollarization of #WorldTrade in favour of the #Euro, because noone wants to deal with a regime that essentially devalued the #USD by 5,6% in the last 3 months, 2,4% in the last month alone compared to the #EUR!

It'll make the #USA more irrelevant and hopefully that'll be the end of it, with it ceasing to exist and it's remains being absorbed by #Mexico and #Canada along the former #SlaveryBelt!

Hopefully people will not require 8,5 years to grow a spine to get rid of #AgentKrasnov in time!

As with the #Trump-#Regime, everything is transactional and thus noone in their right mind would turn themselves into a #PuppetState and sign off #UnfairTrade with the #USA.

At least #USpol and the #401k's collapsing are a good reason to firmly showcase why basing #RetirementFunds off #Stocks is a horrible idea to begin with!

We'd rather see the #EU become it's own #NuclearPower and yeeting the #USA in favour of #Ukraine & #Mexico joining than any of it's members becoming #VassalStates paying #Tribute to the #US!

  • Espechally since the #NATO and it's #SecurityArhitecture was made up by the US and once led by it (can't wait for the #SACEUR to be elected instead of being appointed by the #USA!)

All #Trump does is make the USA weaker, #USpol look more unpredictable and destroy 70+ years of relationships.

  • So even if #AOC would get elected as next #POTUS (I doubt that Trump will even allow any elections anymore!) not even two terms would be enough to broom aside the glass shards Trump left throwing hand grenades inside a glass -walled greenhouse [german proverb]...

I mean, what else do we expect from #AgentKrasnov?

@kkarhan Do not forget Canada. We'd love to join the EU.

@Dianora
You're welcome to the EU! πŸ€—πŸπŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί

@kkarhan

@Sven_Holger_Wolf @Dianora @kkarhan With the number of Indians living there, it will be easier to get into BRICS despite the recent drama.
@abhijithb21 @kkarhan @Sven_Holger_Wolf IFF Russia leaves Ukraine including Crimea.
@Dianora @kkarhan @Sven_Holger_Wolf If Canada joins BRICS, it can ensure that NATO will not be a threat to Russia. Russia leaves Ukraine and Canada enters a bilateral trade agreement with them. πŸ‘»
