Trump Threatens Europe and Canada if They Band Together Against U.S.
-
The president of the United States of America is angry that starting a trade war has started a trade war. I would be appalled, if this wasn't just par for the course at this point.
-
We woke up from a one night stand with the US and have sobered up.
Hey now!... aww, who am I kidding. You're right.
-
Is the fight you picked not going as well as you had hoped, Donald?
-
"I keep making the tariffs worse, and when you agreed to do what I wanted for border security, I made the tariffs worse, and if you don't do what I want, I'll make the tariffs worse, and if you start working together to negate how bad the tariffs are, I'll make the tariffs worse!"
If this only moves in one direction regardless of what anyone does, prepare for the entire world to just act like you do not exist at all.
At some point these countries just need to stop buying American. What’s he going to do? Go to war with them? I mean… Elon already sued advertisers for boycotting his Twitter…
-
What are you gonna do? Tariff yourself into isolation? While Europe, UK, Canada, Mexico and possibly the rest of the British commonwealth trade and work more together to make up for the loss of the US?
If you think you don't need us then stop crying about it. Just do it. The free world has called your bluff, so either admit you're weak and take the loss graciously, or take the consequences of your continued actions (though we already know which option will be chosen).
Bring it on, homeboy.

:::This is the main issue I have while using Lemmy for a few weeks now. Echo chambers really become each other's echoes. The amount of deja vu 'news' that I have already seen a week ago from another community on another instance is too high. The same discussion goes on repeat. Feels like going in circles.

Trump: Stop trying to benefit from my stupidity and ineptitude!

Many have proposed improvements for better social media to address these issues. Even i made a (bad ?) post about it 1 month ago :

On the off chance any trump supporters are reading this.
We are, hopefully, banding closer together because your leaders are alienating you from us. We never wanted this trade war and we never asked to have our sovereignty threatened.It's not against you. It's for us. You're stepping away from your allies, so we have to be closer.
They might have some things to say about that if they could read

He only seems to have one card and its the joker.
He keeps picking it up and playing it over and over, but somehow we're still not impressed
-
when he thinks he has the cards^tm^
others just moved on with a different game
-
Do it now the Orange Turd is coming for you.
-
Hey canada, wanna do it even harder now? - best love, europe
-
this goes well with yesterdays devils panties.

Reminds me of that scene from the emperor's new groove
"Tell us where they are and I'll burn your house down!"
"Don't you mean or?"
-
"Yours, plus two"

When he finally finishes his wall, I hope he makes it a sound-proof dome. It would be so refreshing to not hear from him, at least for some days.
