The EU guys are no longer subtle about the animosity

Na all out economic war

Even if a new president comes and reverses the tarrifs, their relationship can never go back to how it was

When was the USA being taken advantage of? What was wrong with the US and world economy before now? You have an illiterate president who doesnt even understand what a Tarriff is (he thinks it is a tax strictly on those importing into the US which he can use as punishment). He doesnt know that it is American consumers that will bear the brunt and American lives that will be hurt.
Go and look at the tarrifs imposed on US products coming to their countries, and you will be shocked, including Nigeria. No wonder goods imported from USA are more expensive and that is why most traders prefer the Chinese market.

Also, the American consumers will bear the brunt, which will discourage purchase of foreign products and services, and boost local production... Basic Economics

Manufacturing is no longer a competitive advantage for America. The U.S. simply can't compete in this sector anymore and should instead focus on maintaining its edge in services. Even with a 100% tariff imposed by Trump, goods manufactured in Asia would still be cheaper than those produced in the U.S. Curious to know why?
Dumb Trump can never know that.

Someone who bankrupted a casino. It will be easy for him to ruin US economy.

Macron seems to seek a futuristic role as the leader of Europe.

I will be against trump if the balance of trade is near equal but if there is a huge deficit l, I don't think any sane country will fold her arms while her country is being taken advantage of.
The US has positive balance of trade with the UK and some other countries, yet, it slapped UK
and those positive ones with 10% tarrif.

This isn't about fair or unfair.
It is just a childish guy trying to implement his fantasy.
Unfortunately, the public and not him will bear the consequence.

Listen to Trump's complain about trade imbalance against the USA, in 1988, 37 years ago. I'm sure many of those with bias comments against Trump who wants to restore his country economic power weren't even born then.

Laughable.., can you share about his first term? What did he do? Sending me a video more than 30 years plus to do what?

Some investors may take advantage of it to produce locally driving down price and the demand would be high

You don't understand. Manufacturing in the USA can never be internationally competitive anymore. The cheap cost of labor in China has ended that story forever.

The EU is angry because Donald Trump has taken a bold step to end the era of making the US the world's Father Christmas (Santa clause). I dare Macron to take the place of America in global aids and financial support.
US made itself the world father Christmas because it wanted to be the world power. Nobody forced it

The current political and economic world order, the one that has existed since 1945, has benefited the US more than any country. By far. Trump has tunnel vision.

Yes, you're right about Mr Macron. Some are already calling him "the leader of the free world".

Not even 100 per cent tarriff will compete with cheap labor driven China. And exactly how long do you even expect such an impossible turn around to take?

You see say life no truly balance and humans are unfair against one another. US has been paying high tariffs for years now and Trump decided that it will be an eye for an eye they are complaining. How can your slam US with x,y,z tariffs and Trump increase theirs to half of what they are charged and the world is complaining. You want them to pay more and you want to pay less.
Well said 👏

Nigerians are here arguing that no matter the level of economic punishment metted to their country by the ever belligerent USA, Nigeria should never respond. Why? Because America is Gods own country! Lol!
You see why I will ban CNN and FOX news immediately after being sworn in as your next president?
