European economy tanking

Brits in contraction, Germany announced 2019 grew 6 tenths of 1 percent, worst in six years, France 4th quarter projected at 2 tenths of 1% and protests on pensions in the streets (I believe, I cant keep up with what the protests are from week to week).
They better get in line and get a trade deal, we are running out of ink.

After Brexit Trump will negotiate a new trade agreement with them and their economy will take off.

Amazing what happens when the US stops letting countries use unfair trade practices to hamstring them. The US grows while everyone else slows down.

I still get a kick out of it every time I see that gif.

Yet the German, French, and Swiss stock markets are at new all time highs. Sounds like people with money are placing bets on the economy turning around soon...

This is a large part of the reason we havent hit the 3 to 4% GDP growth here in the US... world economy is shite. Europeans have ZERO clue what they're doing, we're running our sack all over China, and even the ASEAN countries all had GDP estimates for 2019 revised downward (would have actually been worse if we had not started shifting some China trade to Thailand, Vietnam, and Pi in the wake of the "trade war").
We're basically keeping the world economy afloat and preventing another worldwide recession.

It's hard to believe that Gif of Trump shoving through is real; that's is pure and blatant disrespect. Trump must really know some heavy dirt on these people, for them to just lay down. Doing work. Hobbling the Transnational Progressive Movement.

The only ones over there with any sense are the brits. May, despite what you might have read, was on board with Trump and his ideas. Brexit was supposed to happen sooner but brits gonna brit.
Germany and France, however. smh. There's a reason Merkel only got a starburst from Trump. They keep insisting on selling the Chinese cutting edge diesel engines for their subs. (which, ps, before anyone goes all BUT MUH NUKES, they are actually quieter than nukes. I know. go figure). and The French have insisted on no fly zones and increasing tariffs on us. Thus trump tweeting about crippling their wine industry with tariffs.
We keep making it easier to sell oil and gas over there. Trump keeps trying to lower tariffs to make our products easier to sell in europe. The post WWII mentality is over. Europe is going to have to make some tough choices soon re social programs. If Trump has his way they are all in for a very rude awakening while our economy continues to boom. O, and those geniuses over there really shouldnt have stopped having kids.

Nah, he's the only President since the end of the Cold War to actually use the leverage he knows he has over Europe. He's seen what they've been doing to us economically and he's showing them that he's not taking any of their smarmy, elitist bullshite.

The United States in general, and Trump in particular, will get blamed for Europe's economic woes.

If I had a choice between the US economy and the Euro economy, I would choose the US economy seven days a week and twice on Sunday.
And most average Americans would agree.
Dems are decidedly not “average Americans” though.
