Good for them. Maybe they can also show the world that they can take care of their own defense needs without relying on the USA? ...probably not.
Great. France and Germany can further hurt their economies with cheap imports from Mexico. And it helps our southern neighbor.
Meantime, the US is still working to stop the hemorrhaging of jobs and industries, and reversing it to MAGA!
And we don’t really care if Europe does something stupid to try to get the US to do something to.
Mom used to ask us if our friends jumped off a bridge, would we jump too? You knew the answer better be No.
IIRC, bilateral trade agreements are exactly what Trump prefers instead of regional and inter-regional ones.
Mexico doesn’t need us? Oh no. I guess we can send them all back then.
Maybe the Wall Street Journal should be renamed the Rue des Barres Journal
They deserve each other
Let’s see the free trade provisions for influx of Mexicos poorest into Europe
The Murdoch newsletter is pathetic .
Let Europe have all the blood suckers from that third world hell too .
The evil agenda of the Globalists never rests .
WSJ still on their globalist crapola.
Reciprical Trade or fuggetaboutit.
Also, China and other countries used “country of origen” loopholes to kill us. They launder their products through Canada and Mexico via NAFTA to screw us, with Mehico and Canada getting their cut without actually producing. BS to that!!!
MAGA!
The US is a huge market. Other countries are investing in and trading with Mexico so they can have their products enter the US as Mexican made. If you delve into the EU/Mexico trade, how much of it is between those two as opposed to EU goods having one last button sewn or screw added so they can become Mexican made for entry into the US? This is one of the things Trump wanted to undo in the NAFTA accord.
Is this comedy? THE REST OF THE WORLD IS PROTECTIONIST! Do I have to post the tariff rate schedule of the entire world, again? This will show the average tariff the USA charges is less than 2% and the rest of the world 8% or more.
Stay the course Mr. President. And damn the torpedoes - they are temporary anyway provided we do not waiver in MAGA.
The US market is the world’s biggest and most lucrative. We have all the leverage.
What a waste of time, the EU won’t be around in 10 years ...
“Removing protections” is what Trump is doing. If the EU wants to play “me too” good for them.
The agreements between Mexico and Europe satisfy very different requirements than those between America and Europe and Mexico.
Although isolationist here can’t comprehend the concept, the goal is to increase trade, not strangle trade.
Many here confuse the concept of international trade with globalism
“The two sides traded goods and services worth $76 billion last year.”
What a stupid statement, and misleading for the unwary. That’s like saying “the US and China traded goods and services worth over 1 trillion dollars last year”, when the US took it in the shorts bigtime.
The WSJ doesn't get it; either deliberately or due to stupidity, who knows?
The United States is NOT going Protectionist.
The United States is finally getting a leader who will not let the USA get SKA—RUUWED by the world over bad trade practices.
Demanding they trade fairly with us is the ONLY thing we're doing!!!
More news from the Amnesty, No Borders Lobby at the WSJ
The WSJ was once accused of patriotism but was found Not Guilty.
With any luck this Europe-Mexico deal will mean that Mexico’s millions of Illegal Aliens will now go there. Win-win.
