UK could avoid US tariffs that the ‘atrocity’ EU is facing because Starmer has been ‘nice’, Trump suggests
-
Have you informed the UK about this?
-
I think it's a bit of a stretch to call it a "brain".
-
Trump caught Melania flicking her bean while moaning Justin's name. Fact.
-
Yes, and it hits the poor worse than most forms of tax increases.
So it's blatantly in favor of the 1%, accumulating power even more in the top. -
Given that Keir Starmer is currently in Brussels to strengthen the UK-EU bond, I think the UK is aware of this.
-
The UK and US have pretty balanced trading, both reprting surpluses. Isn't that the real reason? Tariffs would be really stupid here
-
Stupid is the real reason.
-
I mean, all of this happened because Obama made fun of him at the Whitehouse correspondents dinner.
-
And of course Donald Trump is as immovable as granite and unwaveringly loyal to his friends & allies.
There is no chance of him having a spat with the Aberdeenshire council about rubbish collection for his golf club and responding with a 50% tariff...
Or for that matter of being directed to do it by his owners with even less justification....
-
Glad to know my career and income is at risk because of some poor presidents feelings.
-
As much as I hate Starmer, he and Zelensky have done a good job of keeping their interests vis à cis Trump.

Edited: someone else commented same thing below this.

The man’s the head of state, of supposedly the biggest economy in the world, closer to the nuclear codes than most of us, and behaves like a complete cock. It’s legitimately terrifying and I’m not even USian.

What is jfc?

Jesus (fucking) Christ!

Surround yourself with Yes-men, piss off your allies, cuddle with dictators. Great strategy.
Maybe MAGA actually stands for Make America Gone Again. Is that acceptable English? Not a native speaker.
-
Ah. Thanks, been wondering some time about that and googling gave a lot of mixed results for me.
-
Trump couldn’t care less. She’s there for the money and trump needs to pretend to be married for clout

Yes laughed..
