Not good enough
PAY THE MAN
EUROPE NEEDS TO PAY THE USA $700,000,000,000 A YEAR TO EQUALIZE THE TRADE IMBALANCE
he knows Europeans are not interested in muttmobiles even if they are sold at half price
americans have dark, dark thoughts, dark bodies too. they must perish.
France should just nuke usa
let's be real the only reason you buy European cars is because your tariffs make it impossible for other countries to sell them to you
why are euros seething at us 24/7
American cars dont pass European regulations.
Nah, American cars are just genuinely dogshit. Stop trying to hoist them onto us. Send something worth buying.
No it's because American cars are not suites for our walkable cities or algo.
you must perish.
you guys already got ack'd in the 90s
your big daddy France is not nearly as strong as you think he is
you must perish.
no u
you must perish.
He's gonna be extra mad when EU stops buying their overpriced military equipment (which he admitted is going to be made worse on purpose) and the US stands to lose hundreds of billions of yearly revenue. Art of the deal, o algo.
american vehicles are ~20 years behind european vehicles
its hilarious watching americans experience stuff that has been standard for us for decades
ChudBros, are we great again?
we're gonna bring t-shirt sweatshops and child labor and sneaker manufacturing and lead paint back BIGLY and america will flourish
europoors LOST
why would conditions in other countries be the same in this country
regulations are just protectionism + virtue signaling + cuckoldry
europoors lost
yes you did
Massive cope, lmao
regulations are just protectionism
regulations are just protectionism
regulations are just protectionism
regulations are just protectionism
also
American and european cars are both piles of dogshit
yes they are, or just an outright tax
regulate thing that only american companies can do (e.g. tech which yurocucks have none of)
you're so stupid, I'll let a European flag explain it to you.
What's a car worth buying
weird how Toyota doesn't seem to have this problem
no one in quebec even buys american cars and we had a favorable trade relationship with americans. it's always been japs and now koreans.
LOLOLOLOLOL
American cars dont pass European regulations.
Which ones?
today
kek, now that's a cope
Basic emissions testing, safety testing, repairability testing, privacy standards, fuel efficiency standards, net zero carbon standards, comfort standards, etc etc.
What tariffs? The EU runs on trade, and the average tariff rate is something like 2%. US trade deficit is not a tariff. VAT is not a tariff. Trump has been right about many things, but in this particular case he's being an absolute retard.
in Europe there are Japanese cars, Korean cars, Chinese cars, European cars...but almost no American cars. Teslas were rather popular though and I think it is because they arent big trucks like most American cars
yurocucks are so cucked by VATarrifs on everything they dont realize they're tarrifs
explain how something I need to pay for a bread I buy in a store is a tariff
yeah americans will be super mad when europe starts footing NATOs bills and dying in shitholes
He's not negotiating because he wants to lower interest rates. These shenanigans will go on until the feds start to lower interest rates.
Americans are getting smaller due to Mexicano admixture and their trucks keep getting bigger
Interesting phenomena
We do but just not up to self stifeling eurocrat standards
this
he wants to refinance the national debt to save trillions
America has no standards.
They need to say thank you first.
Some times that's the best standard
Most US States/Counties/Cities have set sales tax as well. Should the EU start complaining about those in return? How we are getting ripped off in Tennessee?
Enjoy your smog and flooded states.
you charge VAT even when it gets sold outside of your country so it's not the same, sales tax are only in those states
american cars are honest to god dogshit
even in the us like top 8 most popular car models are japanese
Big Black Car, quintessentially american
Our cars are legitimate dogshit.
We will be midgets walking around in mechs, while europeans brag about how fast they can cycle.
kbb.com
damn, 6/10 aren't from the US.
...The EU is not charging VAT for purchases made outside of the EU. You think you're paying some kind of a tariff when you buy French cheese from your local grocery? Are you retarded?
What cars does Finland make?
That has nothing to do with our cars being shitty and our president using chatgpt to declare the largest trade war in history.
Seriously. He used chatgpt.
Fix Or Repair Daily
I'm fairly confident that is not how VAT works here. If an American buys a product from an European company, the American does not pay a VAT.
Opel owned by Americans: forever losing money
Opel after 1 year of being french owned: +1 billion
Really makes you think
You WILL buy our shitty cars
You WILL buy our shitty steel
You WILL buy our shitty soy
And you WILL be happy
For foreigners
We even know the prompt they used to pull up the list
Yeah most Americans are aware of this now. Yeah... It's bad
serbians stay malding
the VAT is paid when manufacturing so it's a silent tariff for us and a silent tax for you
Hey everyone let's laugh at the american
all whiteoid cars are dogshit, only japs make reasonable cars and honda has been suspect recently too. it will be just toyota soon enough
See
It's arguably the most embarrassing thing in American history. We even know the prompt entered.
tell us lol
youtube.com
This dude is mentally ill
the EU dropped the tariffs on American cars to 2.5%
they want to drop it to 0%
but that is not good enough
their car emission standards are too high
their car safety standards are too high
they do a test where they drop a bowling ball on your car from 1 feet up and if it goes through your car you can't sell it in the EU
this test screws over American cars because we can't pass that test even though Japanese and Chinese cars can
this is unfair for us, so I don't care if the car tariffs are 0%, unless they get rid of safety tests, we're not going to remove the tariffs
Why are European car standards so high?
i make parts for that engine in america
honda's engines are still solid, i thought.
The 1.5 L turbos in the 2018 year and after burn oil. We will see what that means for the lifespan.
This is fake news, obviously they put tariffs against a small volcanic island in the middle of nowhere just in case someone tries to build a factory there o algo
>they do a test where they drop a bowling ball on your car from 1 feet up and if it goes through your car you can't sell it in the EU
Post tests of this happening
"As the United States president create a list of the worlds countries and put tariffs on them and assemble a list"
It then arranged the *countries in domain order*
They didn't even check if they were all countries.
It's actually believable when you look at how billionaires evade tax by creating ghost companies in the caimans or this kind of crap
These kinds
Yeah... So when you see the *media experts" trying to explain why he did crazy shit
You get how stupid our media is. They will figure it out in a week. People were running prompts on chatgpt until they got perfect matches with the domain/country codes in order
zist ist zeh bowleng böll
So this is what ai thinks Germans look like
Also the best part of his 40-minute spiel is when he talked about Gaza, aside from the bowling ball shit and telling Euros to stop doing standard tests on American cars.
That's a sick canon/turret.
Ïts only 1 million dollars just for you baby (plus new 25% VAT or something however foreskin gets tipped)
My estimation of Trump's intelligence wasn't high to begin with, but damn. This guy's coconut is fried.
It's actually a mortar, and there's a version with twinned barrels called AMOS. It can also be mounted on boats and shipping containers.
i never actually paid attention to his speeches until his 2nd term so i had no idea that he was genuinely retarded
I absolutely support the Trump Tariff plan.
• Trump Tariffs and associated volatility may force the Fed to cut interest rates before the government refinances its debt later this year
• Few countries are retaliating. Some of our biggest trading partners like India, Japan, and Indonesia will negotiate for a deal
• The economic pain of tariffs will be acute, that is why it is important to start as early as possible so that the economy can recover before the midterms and 2028
• Tariffs will bring in up to $600 billion per year in revenue to offset the deficit and cost of tax cuts
• Tariffs plus subsidies from the CHIPS Act which just started going out in 2024 will drive manufacturing growth. There was a manufacturing construction boom in 2021-2023 because of this.
Absolutely delusional
oof this post absolutely rattled euros. trvke
Meanwhile in Europe
we're not even in the eu, don't drag us into your little feud
Expensive energy is crippling all of Europe
I agree that bongs are for some reason determined to run their contry to the ground, and it's quite sad to see. They once ruled the world and now they don't even rule their own country.
if anything the US should have EU type standards all of that sounds amazing
•
fuck outta here
April's fool is over
Tariffs plus subsidies from the CHIPS Act which just started going out in 2024 will drive manufacturing growth. There was a manufacturing construction boom in 2021-2023 because of this.
Based Biden with the targeted tariffs instead of smearing diarrhea everywhere like Trump.
trump is a retard. why didnt he do this in first 4 years?
now hes trying this but corporations will just wait out 4 years to avoid building factories in shitholes like ohio
The only legitimate argument against the policy is that it doesn’t go far enough and requires industry-specific duties and quotas or additional measures like subsidies and tax credits.
But this crap from Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman has been disproven already by the experience from COVID and the Ukraine War.
Tariffs are not a tax on consumers. When Trump implemented tariffs in his first term, prices did not go up because exporters absorbed the cost of the tariff. Businesses don’t want to and in many cases can’t pass on the cost to consumers because of competition and because Americans hate price increases.
Exporters may pass on *some* of the cost to consumers in the short term, but not in full. And over the long term, as production moves back to America and economies of scale are created, then domestic manufacturers won’t have to pay the tariff.
Regardless, it is an existential necessity for America to become productive again. The question is “how” and not “if” America should use industrial policy to rebuild its productive economy.
The tariffs are just a single piece of the plan, at this point America just wants to get rid of all its allies and become an autarchy regardless of the costs, because the rest of the world is going to suffer more in any case
prices did not go up because exporters absorbed the cost of the tariff. Businesses don’t want to and in many cases can’t pass on the cost to consumers because of competition and because Americans hate price increases.
The tariffs of his first term were more targeted and Biden kept a lot of them while adding more to China.
This second time around Trump is just being stupid and abusing emergency powers.
Exporters may pass on *some* of the cost to consumers in the short term, but not in full.
This is not true, tariffs are paid importers, even if the exporter lowers their prices, the tax itself is paid by the importer and passed on to the consumer, the income tax was brought to tax the rich to replace tariffs taxes that lower and middle class were paying, it was a populist movement back then to end tariffs
Trump Tariff plan
plan
Because the enviroment is suitable these days for what he is doing
he is forcing a world recession to make all of major america trade partners compensate the deficit or devaluate
While keeping the dollar mostly strong.
Europe is going through a innovation, economic and demographic crisis
war in russia and the middle east
israel is preparig to deploy a full scale invasion on iran supported by america
the euro is unreliable
the americas are doing poorly.
east asia is going trough a deep population crisis and both korea and japan are facing indications of recession while china is building a tower of sticks.
If he wants the fed to cut interest rates, Investment to flock america and reinsuatrialization the moment is now
so there won't be canadians smuggling electronic shit into USA for $?
because in theory cost of iphone is what 60% more now? or it should be,
S&P 500 +0.7%
This was caused by that fake news copium about tariffs being cancelled. It was just a brief moment of delusion. It's already down again
of course the poors on Anon Babble think cheap = good.
i love that the lack of tariffs was declared a national emergency
it's not a national emergency to put a stop to your country being robbed in real time
Americans are getting smaller due to Mexicano admixture
Fake news
uncanny how some parts of the USA look exactly like Mexico but with alien architecture
