Their should be no WTO to complain to. Europe still subsidizes AB and we still complain. Problem now is we do not have permission to retaliate, because the WTO says no. That to me is an egregious assault on our sovereignty, as bad as the idiots on the SCOTUS citing international laws.

We don't need the WTO's permission to retaliate, just as we don't need the UN's permission to bomb Iran. And if the WTO ruling comes-down in the favor of the U.S., the Euros can choose to ignore it, just as we chose to ignore its ruling in favor of the Canadians regarding softwood lumber.

Anyone can think of good reasons to pull out of the WTO or the UN . . . but "the ebil globalists can swoop in and take my lunch money (or prevent me from eating my sandwich)" is not one of them.

And it'll only get worse.
