Yeah I’m losing faith that they’ll ever learn. They think they can ‘art of the deal’ him but he has the brain of a goldfish and likes being a bully. Any ‘win’ you get from him is short term and only serves to encourace him to come back and try to extract more from you. The only way to deal with him is to punch him back harder.
For instance, they took digital services tariffs off the table almost immediately - I guess to placate him? But that’s some of the best leverage the EU has on the USA.
So what was the point of the trade deal if the orange fucker still uses tariffs as a threat?
