WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump on Friday added the 27 countries that make up the European Union to the list of trade partners he’s threatening with tariffs — unless the group takes steps to import more U.S. goods.
“I told the European Union that they must make up their tremendous deficit with the United States by the large scale purchase of our oil and gas,” Trump posted shortly after 1 a.m. on social media. “Otherwise, it is TARIFFS all the way!!!”
I thought the next headline would be “Trump added European countries he wants to add as US states”.
We still have until 20 January before he takes office…
It would be “fun” when we, Europe, become as equally popular to the other side of the Atlantic as we are now for the Eastern side of the continent…/s
