US-EU trade deal is a ‘dark day’ for Europe, says French PM

Trump tariff of 15% means European exporters will face more than triple the average 4.8% levy now in force

The world belongs to the strong and moneyed. The weak wither slowly! Every country and region is spineless to mighty USA regardless of who is the President. I made so much money during Clinton, Bush 1 &2, Obama 1& 2, Trump 1, so so much during Biden (100x) , and now Trump 2 is also looking I will make a lot. He first sunk us by Tarriffs but it looks like stock market has become resilient and no longer swing like a pendulum from his mouth!
The future belongs to those who have a quarter of the character and integrity of RV Heavy Hitter!

There are no 'agreements'. These talks take even ten years as bureaucrats state capturers check mate crazy politicians hot air, wild goose chases as one the bimbo is on.

Then other political bimbos come. Hot air charades.

A framework and deal are two different things
Itll be a while before final deal
