    The US is not the only purchasing country numbnuts. He seems to think it's the 1950s when it was (essentially) only the US with purchasing power. Companies will just try to sell internationally.

    Not surprising, seeing as how the entire party is based around a violently enforced sitcom-esque vision of an eternal 1950's.

                It would be sweet if we could create some trade/ military alliance similar to the EU between the ol' Commonwealth gang.

                  Why for the EU?

                  It's much easier to produce military hardware than to set up a large trading network.

                  Remember, we only need to have enough to decisively stop the Russia. We don't need to become another US military power.

                  Because it never stops at just stopping the enemy, the allies could have simply contained Nazi Germany but chose to invade. The US could have continued the war in the Pacific but chose to drop 2 atomic bombs.

                  Beating the enemy so thoroughly is the only way humans have ever been able to truly end a conflict of that scale, and in that situation if Europe is to beat Russia like that I don't believe they'd hesitate to start launching nukes.

                  So we're stuck in a situation where Europe either risk nuclear war, or an extended border skirmish that could last decades. Both would be devastating

                      Isn't trump the one actually pushing economic harm to the US? Maybe he should look into that.

                      Yes, he's creating chaos so that robber barons can capitalize on it to grow their own wealth at the cost of everyone else's

                      He's destroying international relationships to remove US superpower status, to give more regional hegemony to Russia and China (probably just Russia, China gets it for free).

                      And he's displacing the US dollar as the global currency. Contributes to the first two items and has long term effects on their global hegemony.

                        I really don't think that's how it works. Like no one has ever sold their house below market to such an extent that one would run to buy it. That makes no sense. If you lose your house, it goes to the bank.

                            but banks dont want houses. they want the balance of the loan. in a moderate recession realestate will get auctioned fast and low.

                                  oh, you'll know. talk to friends and family who may have been through this before. make a plan (or five) for something that works. there are paths depending on your goals - individual, multi-family, communal, etc. only you (and other potential participants) know what you might want to achieve.

                                  the most important thing its talking to people who have been through it before. start doing that so you have some inkling of what to look for and what might work if you have resources. a great deal of it is luck but some of it is forethought.

                                  reminder: none of this is competent financial advice and you should probably ignore it.

                                    What does Trump think is far larger than 25%? I'd swear that he thought that 25 was as high as numbers go. Someone must have told him about 26.

                                          It's like he can't comprehend that other people would react to his actions.

                                          He raised tariffs, other nations reduced trade with the US and looked elsewhere. If he continues to raise tariffs it will inevitably cause the US to be isolated in trade.

                                          It's not even a shocking/daring tactic, it's a self destructive tantrum because his misunderstanding has led to mismanagement and now he's doubling down

                                          I just hope that the EU and other major powers blacklist Yarvin's Cabal from living or operating in their territories. The 1%'s money is tainted, as it would surely be used to corrode and destroy countries as it had the US.
