The United States has an $800 Billion Dollar Yearly Trade Deficit because of our “very stupid” trade deals and policies. Our jobs and wealth are being given to other countries that have taken advantage of us for years. They laugh at what fools our leaders have been. No more!

If the E.U. wants to further increase their already massive tariffs and barriers on U.S. companies doing business there, we will simply apply a Tax on their Cars which freely pour into the U.S. They make it impossible for our cars (and more) to sell there. Big trade imbalance!

1. Classic inversion of reality

He clearly isn't following what the rest of the planet is saying about him

2. Without looking this up - wouldn't European wage and benefits standards make production there costly

?

I know that a lot of tires are made in France but BMW has a massive plant in South Carolina ("right to work" state). Autos are made all over the place from. Outlying southern states with sweet tax deals and less employment rights to Mexico etc. and then assembled elsewhere.

3. "They laugh at what fools our leaders have been." I thought they were laughing at...

what a fool this particular leader is.

6. Exactly. He's too stupid to realize he's the fool. Though I wouldn't blame them if they were also

laughing at us for voting for him, and then keeping him in office once we realized how much of a fool he truly is.

4. Yes, his base was told for years how incompetent and embarrassing Obama was

When, in fact, the opposite was true.

Not that they would seek independent verification of what they had been brainwashed to believe.

There's not a single corner of the free world right now that doesn't think that Trump is a buffoon who happens to represent the greatest menace to our safety and well-being since the Cold War.

5. Imagine that.. the fool is prescient about

himself.

Who knew the pervert could predict the future?

7. Somebody send him some European newspaper headlines.

Guess which POTUS was invited to Prince Harry's wedding and which one wasn't.

8. tRump is about a day away from calling on Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne

His grasp on reality is about that firm.

9. A lot of foreign autos are manufactured here.

Parts-wise the line is really blurry between foreign and domestic vehicles. No one country builds anything complex from the ground up any more.
Thats why trade wars are bad you orange brain sick piss-a-bed.

10. We havent had a President who taunts his own country before

Yet another way this POS is so special.
