Have seen a few articles regarding this issue since the signing.

The hubris of their politicians is amazing. We pull you up off your knees with the Marshall Plan after WW2. You thank us by forming the EU and proceed to continue to screw us on trade for 70 years, now we finally start to sign fair deals, and you are concerned. You should be cause you are next.

Tax our IT companies, we dont need no stinkin badges, and we dont need french wine and cheeses regardless of what Jimmy Buffett says.

It’s not their fault for using the coupon. It’s ours for offering it

They’ve been able to live nice and cozy over there in the EU without paying for their own military protection. Guess what happens when the plug is pulled by daddy?

Oh I agree, just as Trump has said many times, and its not just obama or dems, its both sides for decades. Now dealing with it is trying to discipline a 5 year old for the first time in their life expect, lots of tantrums, backed by the msm and stories of alienating our "allies" and OMB.

We have spent trillions defending Germany, and the rest of Western Europe since the Cold War, mind you after we bailed Western Europe out of back to back world wars.

Not only were they not spending money on defense, we are propping up their local economies with huge bases and thousand of soldiers all over Europe.

In return they gave their nations to international financiers and 5th century religious zealots, lectured us 24/7 about socialist bullshite, held their noses up to us etc. ad nauseam.

All the while they are doing business with our enemies in Iran, Iraq, Russia, China etc.
Oil for food, skirting sanctions, black market oil trading.

THE CUCK SESSION IS OVER

Thought you'd like this one. This is not only excellent, it is an eye-opener. And it helps explain WHY there are so many "TRUMP-HATERS!"

The IMF is warning that “global economies” will contract by $455 billion next year due to the ongoing trade conflict between the U.S. , China , the EU and to a lesser extent, Japan .

President Trump will cost the “Global Economy” $455 billion…. because that money will be transferring back to the America First economy. That’s what happens as MAGAnomics reverses the IMF trade (wealth distribution) model.

China and the EU have devalued their currency in an effort to block the impacts from President Trump and the ‘America First’ trade policy. Because those currencies are pegged against the dollar, the resulting effect is a rising dollar value. In essence, the globalist IMF is now blaming President Trump for having a strong economy that forces international competition to devalue their currency.

In the bigger picture is why President Trump is the most trans-formative economic President in the last 75 years. The post-WWII Marshall Plan was set up to allow Europe and Asia to place tariffs on exported American industrial products.

Those tariffs were used by the EU, China , & Japan to rebuild their infrastructure after a devastating war. However, there was never a built in mechanism to end the tariffs…. until President Trump came along and said: “it’s over!”

After about 20 years (+/-), say 1970 to be fair, the EU and Japan received enough money to rebuild. But instead of ending the one-way payment system, Asia and the EU sought to keep going and build their economies larger than the U.S. Additionally, the U.S. was carrying the cost of protecting the EU (via NATO) and Japan with our military. The EU and Japan didn’t need to spend a dime on defense because the U.S. essentially took over that role. But that military role, just like the tariffs, never ended. Again, until Trump.

The U.S. economy was the host for around 50 years of parasitic wealth exfiltration, or as most would say “distribution”. The term *exfiltration* better highlights that American citizens paid higher prices for stuff, and paid higher taxes within the overall economic scheme, than was needed.

President Trump is the first and only president who said: “enough”, and prior politicians who didn’t stop the process were “stupid” etc. etc. Obviously, he is 100% correct.

For the past 30 years the U.S. was a sucker to keep letting the process remain in place while we lost our manufacturing base to overseas incentives The investment process from Wall Street (removal of Glass-Stegal) only made the process much more severe and faster. Wall Street was now investing in companies whose best bet (higher profit return) was to pour money overseas. This process created the “Rust Belt”, and damn near destroyed the aggregate manufacturing industry.

Unfortunately, putting ‘America First’ is now also against the interests of the multinationals on Wall Street; so President Trump has to fight adverse economic opponents on multiple fronts and their purchased mercenary army we know as DC politicians.

No-one, ever, could take on all these interests. Think about it… The EU, Asia, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, China, Russia, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Iran, U.S.

Congress, Democrats, U.S. Senate, Wall Street, the Big Club, Lobbyists, Hollywood , Corporate Media (foreign and domestic), and the ankle-biters in Never Trump…. All of these financial interests are aligned against Main Street USA and against President Trump.

Name one individual who could take them on simultaneously and still be winning!
They say he’s one man. They say they have him outnumbered. Yet somehow, as unreal as it seems, he’s the one who appears to have them surrounded….

Damn we have been fricked by our own for decades and they are still trying to keep it going. While simple US citizens are going to work everyday worried about filling their needs the leaders are stuffing their pockets in kickbacks to keep America Last.

Has anyone ever heard this line? “Accept lower wages, or we will move abroad!”

EU mandarins are terrified of Trump. They thought the Phase 1 would never happen or the Chinese would wait to see if Trump loses in the election.

Instead, it is clear the Chinese think Trump will be re-elected and they wanted to get a partial deal out of fear Trump will be impossible to deal with otherwise.

The US deal plus the passing of the USMCA is going to have a huge impact on the UK-EU trade negotiations as well. The EU scoffed that Trump and Johnson could quickly cut a deal, but now they must deal with that very reality. Refusing to cut a deal is going to hurt the EU and the mandarins power.

Trump did not drop a pebble in the trade pond, but a huge boulder.
