He was offered an off ramp and took it.
Decoupling with china is fine long term, not a big deal and was never concerned about Chinese tariffs or ending trade with them.

He is taking the off ramp being offered by allies who already have set a deadline against Trump with their own retaliatory tariffs if he didn’t take the off ramp.

It’s hilarious witnessing Republicans suddenly support new and higher taxes for the people who can least afford it.

The Dems crippling taxes and regulations on corporations prevented a lot of those folk from getting good jobs.

Stupid and wasteful. Hopefully the big boy pants will be put on for a more intelligent next try.

you and Err should get a room

European Union approves first set of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports

The European Union on Wednesday voted to approve its first set of retaliatory measures to counter tariffs imposed by the U.S. on steel and aluminum.

I wouldn’t call this cooperating with Trump.

They offered him a carrot and showed him the stick. The orange idiot decided not to completely destroy the Republican Party with an economic recession.

where did you come up with this, he didnt end the tariffs that would be an off ramp. hes allowing more time for negotiations.

70 countries want to negotiate , trump wants to be in on every negotiation.

Our trade partners and allies likely always would have responded positively if we'd just asked them to work with us to begin with. The dumb go ahead and tariff the whole world little boy fake numbers TV show drama didn't need to happen.

He is gonna take the minor victory handed to him by the EU if he is smart.
They already have approved tariffs against the US, during the time frame Trump told them not to.

They showed they will fight back if he doesn’t simmer down with his nonsense and now he announces a pause.

Would they really give up their competitive advantage if we just acted nice? You're getting into Neville Chamberlain territory, sorry.

Yea, what did he secure? A couple percentages off of tariffs?

If even that. They placated a child’s delusional tantrum and now are putting him down for a nap, hopefully.

Neville Chamberlain territory? Our trade partners and allies aren't Nazi Germany.

But yes, we could've talked real numbers instead of fake numbers with them and shown them what the stick was if they didn't want to cooperate.
