The EU needs us more than we need them. If you think they are going to "throw economic trade with the US to the wayside" because we are "meanies" I have some beach property that I would like to sell you.
The theme I've noticed recently in foreign policy with y'all seems to be "we can treat our closest and more important allies like total shite and they'll just take it" and we pretend like that will not have any issues down the road. It's the same with Canada, Mexico, the EU, etc. The only outlier seems to be Russia, apparently, and they are small potatoes in terms of even the ability to be a trade partner (as they're so poor with such a shitty economy/GDP).
Just yelling some form of "they're taking advantage of us!" over and over doesn't make it true. Nobody has benefited from American hegemony more than America. It's not particularly close.

Good. We should have been partners, economically and against terrorist Islamists, immediately after the Cold War ended but the MIC needed to have an enemy still to continue the rape of the American taxpayer.

It’s a good trade
I'm down to trade with anyone, but trading the EU for Russia just doesn't seem to be +EV in the long term.
ESPECIALLY if we're already creating friction in our 2 other closest allies and trading partners (Canada, Mexico) at the same time.

Considering the tariffs that the EU has placed on American goods going into Europe, I don’t think it will hurt much.

Why do we need to do "economic development" with Russia?
Or is this just free trade with anyone and everyone?

The EU has this misfortune of being an economic competitor in a way the Russians are not.
Economic ties also (hopefully) bring peace and stability, which is good for everyone, Europe included.

That's a nice way of saying Russia is poor with a shite economy and very little to offer us in trade

Russia already proved economic ties mean nothing to them as they've invaded Ukraine twice since 2014, to the chagrin of Europe

Why not trade with Russia? China is our greatest enemy right now and we do loads of trade with them.

Yup, we're throwing away our position with the EU to continue to get fricked 10 ways to Sunday since 1945. it's worked out very well for us.

SFP,
You continue to show how ignorant and straight retarded!
Our relationship with Europe as a whole has sucked!
1. Trade deals lopsided
2. We pay more for NATO than all European countries pro-rata & it’s not even close
3. They are the ones behind the WHO, the WEF, the Paris Climate Hoax, and with all of that, we have been propping it all up financially.
THERE HAS BEEN ZERO BENEFIT TO THE PAST RELATIONSHIP WITH EUROPE!
At some point, you have to look In the mirror & realize that nobody here likes you & nobody agrees with you except for the other Tranny Lovers on this board.
You continue to spew ignorance on here!
An alliance with Russia/good working and amicable relationship is great unless you want a Nuclear Holocaust!
Especially at this juncture in time and where Europe is headed, it’s best to mend the fences and run from Europes suicide mission with open borders to Goat & Young Boy Molesters!
Europe is heading to there 2030 NWO/WEF/WHO Agenda to create a global digital CBDC currency where they control your every move if you step out of line.
Where you’ll live in a 15-minute city, eat bugs, own Nothing, sit back and like it or they’ll send us to re-education camps and tell how great it is to chop your penis off.
You’re an Idiot. Post less
GO ENLIST ON THE FRONT LINES IN UKRAINE!
You’re all MOUTH & NO BACKUP!
Open your doors to some Tren De Aragua you dumb POS

You continue to cite incorrect information Counselor. Russia is the #4 economy in the World and have overtaken Germany and Japan in terms of PPP which is more accurate because it accounts for currency disparity. This according to the IMF and World Bank

Have you not been paying attention to our aggression and conflict creation with the EU/Europe the past 2 weeks?

I doubt that, but it would be awesome.

Aggression? Conflict?
We’re treating them the exact same way they treat us, and as they have been for decades.
But please, tell us specifically what actions by the US have you throwing a little hissy fit.
