Be prepared for US style “junk food” to take over the UK and Europe. With the MAHA food dye reforms and the dropping of other barriers, the sweet/savory style will come roaring across the pond.

People don’t get that the US exported less the $3B to Europe and the UK into a market that had approximately $400B ( $350 and $50 respectively) in sales.


This is just one simple example of untapped markets that have been blocked by our global trade “partners” and why this tariff “war” had to happen to open up US export power to fuel US domestic manufacturering.

does the deal favor us or UK....

UK’s big trade deal happened yesterday with India. They have a big trade deficit with India.

The US trade deal opens up the opportunity for our farmers to send around a $900 billion worth of agricultural goods to the UK, but most of that they can get cheaper from the EU. They have no tariffs with most goods from the EU. They also have no tariffs with Australia and New Zealand countries they get agricultural products from.

One trade good they need from the US is ethanol.

They need a trading partner for their steel. There #1 trading product used to be steel, but now China can sell it much cheaper. This deal gives them the opportunity to trade their steel to the US.

It doesn’t really look like there is winner or loser. It might be a win for Trump to get trade deals started, but overall it just gives companies the opportunity to trade for a better price. It’s probably about the same as it was before, but now they have deals with the US, India, Australia, New Zealand, and the EU.

It might make Scotch cheaper here and Bourbon cheaper in the UK.

The tone of the presser indicated it was good for everyone. Sounds like a lopsided deal for the US really. But was covered very positively. Trump can really charm when he puts his mind to it.

That revenue is expected to be around $700B. So we’re a long ways off from covering all of that


Don't forget the Trump Gold Card at $5,000,000 each. Sales are brisk per Howard Lutnick.

scale to cover income tax revenue from all earners below $200k.


I think every citizen needs to have some skin in the game. Love the thought of no taxes but the reality is that paying taxes should make people at least think about what they vote for.
