They are scared. They all got a warning from POTUS and they are not used to that. The EU goons got a month to think it over, and if they don't step up from their bullshit they will get fucked. They buy almost nothing from us and they have a LOT of rules and restrictions that make it very difficult for American goods to be exported there. Their product labeling requirements alone...totally ridiculous. Obviously designed to protext their markets...while they are able to freely exploit ours. Watch what happens to their wines, and cheeses, and luxury cars, and other stuff when the tariffs hit. A trade war is going to hurt them a hell of a lot more than it will affect us. Things are going to get very ugly in Europe. If they think they've got problems now they haven't seen anything yet.
Same thing with any country that we trade with. We don't have to trade with ANY of them. There was a time (up until about 30 years ago) when everything we wanted and needed was manufactured right here in the USA, and it was the best quality stuff. We still have those resources and can do it again. All that we need is for small businesses to start producing things in this country again.
