Who fucking cares at this point? No deal with that moron is worth anything. Give him nothing. Because he's going to slap whatever imaginary bullshit on whomever he pleases no matter what they do. Let his stupid threats be what they are - a syphyllitic old man pissing into the wind.

[-] BioDriver@lemmy.world 66 points 2 months ago

On the heels of trade court ruling his tariffs are illegal. And fuck off with this July 4th crap, you’re not fooling anyone

[-] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 53 points 2 months ago

Sorry, didn't the Supreme Court JUST rule like TWICE that all his stupid ass tarvfeffes were ILLEGAL?! AGAIN?!

Chickening out or not, couldn't he threaten and say it and it just...not go through? On account of being ruled ILLEGAL? AGAIN‽

AGHHH!!!

[-] MrMakabar@slrpnk.net 19 points 2 months ago

Tariffs hit small importers harder. It is a great way to remove competition.

[-] iglou@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago

Any business that hasn't moved away from american providers or markets dependency at this point has very shitty management.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 months ago

AGHHHH

Aaahh, the average reaction when you wake up and look at the first news headlines in the 2020's

Man, this decade sucks

[-] panthera_@lemmy.today 50 points 2 months ago

Ignore him. Seek business elsewhere. Trump just wants to control Europe.

Until here, including yours i was actually able to follow, but I am limited to 4 languages, understanding everyone would be nice though

[-] spitfire@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Nie martw się, i tak mamy go w dupie

[-] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 46 points 2 months ago

Oh. You mean the illegal tariffs that your own courts won't even uphold? That threat just doesn't have the same weight anymore.

[-] hornedfiend@piefed.social 18 points 2 months ago

Trump is beyond any laws. He simply doesn't give a shit.

He should have been in jail for SA after being convicted by a civil court on 34 counts. Americans decided to fuck their own country.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

While I agree, civil courts cant penalize you with prison time.

[-] shani66@ani.social 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Let's also remember he led an insurrection and was the second most prominent member of a global cabal of pedophiles. A lifetime in a secret blacksite is the absolute best thing he deserves.

[-] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 2 months ago

He’s an actual punk-ass bitch. No one believes a word he says. Well, anyone with a brain. His supporters just wave their hands and repeat his ramblings. Europe needs to keep calling his bluff.

[-] aarch0x40@piefed.social 22 points 2 months ago

🤣😂🤣😂 omg, the world no longer cares

[-] Kazel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

But Leyen likes to sign shit

[-] watson387@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 months ago

What an asshole...

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

If I was the leader of these countries and unions, I’d just ignore him. Literally just do nothing

[-] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 5 points 2 months ago

Tarrifs are paid for by the importer, so there isn't anything to do anyway. But what does then happen is consumers in the US will be conscious of the tarrifs and select cheaper products from non-tarrif'd countries. So there is an effect to be had on the EU whether they do anything or not.

[-] parson0@startrek.website 6 points 2 months ago

It's just another distribution of wealth to the top. The cash is collected, the tariffs deemed illegal and the big box stores keep the money. The courts will get overwhelmed with class actions and the consumer will get $2.75 back if they can send in their receipts.

[-] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 20 points 2 months ago

Hurry up and comply or Dad will count to 10 again…

[-] Greyghoster@aussie.zone 15 points 2 months ago

I assume that the EU is expecting TACOs on the 4th of July.

That sounds delicious

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 months ago

Don't

Let trump do whatever because he will do whatever anyway

[-] susi7802@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 months ago

Roll away, pumpkin.

So, we are doing the "school yard bully" thing again?

[-] oyzmo@piefed.social 7 points 2 months ago

US people needs to do something about their leaders and top 1% - you are millions, how can you let this go on!?

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Because if we stop working, we die.

[-] yakko@feddit.uk 6 points 2 months ago

Same reason Russia doesn't. Because it's real big...And the cops will kill you.

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It's deadly to get organized right now, so even getting a million people together would likely be met with rico prosecutions for sharing lunch with someone who passed out fliers. There is no freedom to organize even nonviolent opposition to the administration. The state has so many ways to relieve pressure that it'd take mass starvation and unemployment for people to do anything.

The billionaires have completely captured almost the entire opposition party, freezing out anyone who actually opposes their interests. There are no more democratic mechanisms for significant change, and most of us don't accept that reality. So many people still think that what they've been taught to do to impact change will work, but our votes are only acceptable if the candidate is oligarch approved. Even the people who actually stand against them are only allowed to convince people that there is still a chance.

So you ask how we can let this go on? It's because we'd need to embrace violence to change things, and most believe nonstate violence is wrong no matter how fascist the state.

[-] oyzmo@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

feeling sorry for all of you non-trumpers over there- really that bad? 😢

The tragic part is that most Americans don't even know how much the walls have closed in around them.

[-] Ilixtze@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Europe should not negotiate with terrorists, even less so with pedophile terrorists.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

so is it going to be june 30th then or the july 7th?

[-] claimsou@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Our parliament agreed to the tariffs… we are so weak…. This is embarrassing.
