Sounds like a great way to turn trading partners into… not-trading non-partners.
What a time to be alive 🙃
Just ask yourself who benefits from any of this and you know where these ideas come from.
Oh, I know. It’s blindingly obvious.
The EU recently agreed to pay 1500 milliard in gifts to the USA. The bed is made.
“They must know about our peaceful ways… by force!”
When someone starts throwing out threats, that means they are totally in control of the situation.
He doesn’t want a level playing field. A level playing field would mean obeying the same rules and regulations.
Exactly - a genuinly level playing field would mean the US adopting higher labor standards, environmental regulations, and consumer protections that many trading partners already have in palce.
Said by a dumb as fuck republican who doesn’t understand how cooked the US is because of him and the other Nazis.
And in return you will comply to the level playing field rules when it comes to your digital services, right?
What? No. And if you threaten to regulate their tech giants they will fund extremists in your countries or threaten you with even higher tariffs.

shhhh now go play with this LLM that’s harvesting all of your data and conversations 🥰
thanks dad, you’re the best!
What a great way to talk to your partners
Threatening is always a winning strategy lol. Countries are already cancelling deals with US. I am sure comments like this will make them reconsider.
Mate, we had an “unfair” relationship with you in your favour here in Australia and you still fucked it up
“Level Playing field”: Sell your countries to BP, the fruit company
“We are going to destroy you”: CIA funds a coup and installs dictators who strike good deals with Joe Shmoe from Texas who happens to be a genius negotiator (don’t look at the snipers aiming at you as you sign away your country).
Or you know, Iraq 2.0!
remember the coups they tried in south america, the ambassadors were quickly expelled.
the ambassadors should have been executed
Or what, you’ll add more import taxes that will get passed on to the consumer?
Cool.
Fuck them :)
As an american to all GOP members - shut the fuck up! this shit is why everyone hates americans. Go home and be an isufferable piece of shit there, stop fucking up the country for the rest of us.
Don’t be competitive. We really don’t believe in that in the US. We believe in excluding competitors since that is easier than innovating.
I bet he has a great relationship with his wife, whit that understanding of what partnership is.
