Trump Rejects EUโs โZero Tariffsโ Offer, Vows to Erase $350bn Trade Deficit With Energy Sale
"NOT GOOD ENOUGH" President Donald Trump dismissed the EUโs proposal for a โzero-for-zeroโ tariff deal on industrial goods, calling the bloc a trade monopoly โformed to damage the U.S.โ and vowing to eliminate Americaโs $350bn deficit through energy exports. Key Developments: Rejection: Trump called the EUโs offer insufficient, claiming the bloc imposes โdesignedโ safety standards (e.g., bowling ball car tests) to block U.S. imports. Energy Leverage: โTheyโll buy our energyโ$350bn deficit vanishes in a week,โ Trump said alongside Israelโs Benjamin Netanyahu. EU Pushback: Brussels disputes the $350bn figure and prepares 25% retaliatory tariffs on U.S. steel/aluminum, set for a Wednesday vote. Why It Matters: The collapse of negotiations risks escalating the transatlantic trade war, with EU officials warning of โextremely aggressiveโ countermeasures if talks fail. Trumpโs focus on energy exportsโa sector Europe has historically resistedโreflects a hardline strategy to rebalance trade through unilateral demands. Trade War Timeline: February 2025: EU first proposes โzero-for-zeroโ deal for cars/industrial goods. April 7: Von der Leyen renews offer, warns of countermeasures. April 9: Trumpโs 20% EU tariffs take effect; retaliatory duties begin April 15. Trumpโs Grievances: Car Standards: Mocked EU safety tests as โrules designed so you canโt sell U.S. products.โ Trade Deficit: Repeatedly cited $350bn gap (disputed by EU economists). EU Structure: Claimed bloc was โformed as a unified force against U.S. trade.โ Whatโs Next: April 10: EU finalizes first tariff tranche targeting $4bn in U.S. goods. Energy Gambit: U.S. pushes LNG exports to replace Russian gas, testing EU unity. Market Fallout: Global stocks remain volatile as tariff deadlines loom. 08.04.2025 -

Gaza Paramedics Shot โWith Intent to Kill,โ Red Crescent Demands International Probe
Clearly we do not. The known and verified facts I listed are part of the truth which includes the indisputable fact that the IDF lied. Lying wrt to the killing of paramedics is not a โsmall irrelevant pointโ, especially when it is the killers doing the lying. You really should have stuck with your fist post in this thread, hatred of the victims is all you have. -

Why are Trump supporters so unwilling to criticize even some of his policies?
Isn't that what Republicans accuse Dems of doing ?
