Donald has turned our allies against us with his pointless, and utterly stupid tariff war. The European Union (EU) is retaliating by targeting red states, like MAGA Mike Johnson’s state, Louisiana, and other red states.
Donald, the Stable Genius™ has managed to increase the cost of groceries as the stock market was going down faster than Kimberly Guilfoyle at a party for donors. MAGA! And now, more pain is coming.
The Associated Press reports:
The European Union on Wednesday announced retaliatory trade action with new duties on U.S. industrial and farm products, responding within hours to the Trump administration’s increase in tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports to 25%.
The world’s biggest trading bloc was expecting the U.S. tariffs and prepared in advance, but the measures still place great strain on already tense transatlantic relations. Only last month, Washington warned Europe that it would have to take care of its own security in the future.
The EU measures will cover goods from the United States worth some 26 billion euros ($28 billion), and not just steel and aluminum products, but also textiles, home appliances and agricultural goods. Motorcycles, bourbon, peanut butter and jeans will be hit, as they were during President Donald Trump’s first term.
