A Maga claimed this European had ‘zero idea’ about Trump’s EU trade deal and their A++ comeback was simply magnificent
It’s been a long time coming but the US and European Union have finally agreed a new trade deal, it would appear, with a blanket tariff of 15% on most EU goods imported to the US, half the 30% that had been feared.
Donald Trump was so happy about it he even took time out from tilting at windmills to discuss it.
But it’s fair to say not everyone was celebrating, with the end result likely to be higher prices, as pointed out by this person – @RasmusJarlov – who seemed to know what he was talking about on Twitter.
There is nothing to celebrate. Moving from average tariffs of less than 2% on trade between the USA and Europe to 15% under today’s deal will inevitably lead to inflation. Almost everything will become more expensive in both Europe and the USA, and we will all be worse off. The…

As with so many other topics, it's fascinating to me that in 2025, people don't take the time to learn. Tariffs aren't even muddied by personal or religious beliefs like say abortion or capital punishment. Just basic economic facts and still, they persist in willful ignorance.
