The problem for the four European countries there...if they want to talk economics or trade....they can’t. They gave up their rights to the EU. Only the EU can speak to trade. It’s going the same way for the other dozen topics. There’s no basic reasons to carry the G7 on as it is. You might as well change it to the US, EU, Japan, South Korea, Russia and China.

Go Trump!

“America First!” Posted on FR by yours truly on 2/16, as addendum to “MAGA!” A few weeks later I was amazed to hear “AF!” Coming from DJT. I was also surprised to hear leftist goons claim “AF” was “evil.

Excellent analysis, DB, and touching tribute to Charles Krauthammer.
Thanks for posting it, EoT!

Those goofballs just got themselves banned for spamming FR threads. Not sure that it speaks well of you to that you source them yourself.

The next few Federal elections will determine if the American people wish to maintain their distinct nation and culture or wish to become a part of a globalist confederation. It would appear that at this point most Democrats are socialist and globalist. Most Republicans are capitalist and nationalist. The stakes are high.

"The President was singularly unperturbed about all the bitter scorn he was getting from the Angela Merkels and boy leaders of France and Canada"

Nor should he be. He towers over them in every way: intellectually, morally, physically, spiritually--in every way. Not only do they hate him for it, but they can't understand it.

There was natural selection in The Great Migration to America. The smart ones got the hell out of there.

HOW MANY MORE TIMES WILL AMERICA HAVE TO SAVE EUROPE FROM ITS SUICIDAL MADNESS?!??

HOW FITTING THAT THIS G7 "SUMMIT" COMES JUST THREE DAYS AFTER D-DAY!

HOW FITTING THAT THE EUROPEAN "LEADERS" ARE LOST IN MADNESS!

Excellent post. Prayers for Charles K and his family. Also for Pres Trump at the G7 and in Singapore.

Really nice article!

"Want proof? As of today, the United States is the only nation earth that is not a signatory to this fraudulent agreement, and is also the only nation on earth that has actually met and exceeded its emissions reductions “goals” under the deal. Of course all those other countries are upset – they were all looking forward to getting their slice of that gigantic pie."

If true, this nullifies any liberal virtue-signaling-whinefest about "abandoning: the Paris accord.

Hear! Hear! Tariffs are a negotiating tool, that’s all. They do have a long term negative impact; I’ve bookmarked a few articles to that effect. But we “hired” a Negotiator in Chief to undo the wreckage of decades of bad deals. I’m willing to go with what PDJT is doing.

[central_va]

Free Traitor™ President after Free Traitor™ president and Free Traitor™ congress after Free Traitor™ congress have agreed to enact one-sided tariff policies that overwhelmingly advantage these other nations’ economies, adding Canada and Mexico to this wealth-and-jobs-draining mix in the mid-1990s with the NAFTA deal and adding China in more recently for good measure. Our country has, for what were initially valid reasons, also relieved the Europeans and Canada from the burden of having to truly pay for their own military defense, spending hundreds of billions of dollars every year by having our own military personnel bases, missiles and other tools of war stationed on Eastern Europe and Japan even today, long after the Soviet Union disappeared and the economies of Germany and Japan recovered to world power stature.

Fixed.

[I want the USA back]

The local news media spun it this way:
Trump going to bat for the USA and pushing for trade agreements that favor the USA is being treated as a negative. They make sure they point out to us that the other G7’ers don’t approve.

They never said what they should have said, this: “President Donald Trump is at the G7 demanding fair treatment for the USA in trade and tariffs. His action is expected to cost the other members of the G7 some money, and to bring an economic boom to the USA.”

But the f*ckfaces hate the USA and hate Trump and hate anything he might do to favor this country and I hate the f*ckfaces may they burn in hell.

Thank you Free Republic for letting me rant.

The Canadian government has for many years shipped Chinese goods into the U.S. tariff-free under NAFTA due to a specific exemption in that treaty.

This is a big one. Reciprocation on this point would allow own our business to grow tremendously in the Canada market and create a lot of jobs in my company for Americans. As it is, Canada levies an extra 18% duty that makes it very difficult for Canadian companies to buy our US-designed products.

[Grampa Dave]

But here’s the big secret the fake news media in this country won’t tell you: President Trump isn’t looking to cut all these spoiled children states off completely – he never promised that. He’s simply looking for concessions from them that are substantial enough to give him the ability to keep his campaign promise of negotiating a “better deal for America.”

Canada is a great example: The Canadian government has for many years shipped Chinese goods into the U.S. tariff-free under NAFTA due to a specific exemption in that treaty. All the Boy Prince has to do is concede on that inherently unfair provision and the rest of NAFTA will remain largely intact. The other countries in the G7 have their own inherently unfair tariff provisions that are unreasonable and should be conceded in order to avoid an outright trade war that benefits no one.

It isn’t 1948 anymore – if Italy’s economy is still a wreck, the United States has no responsibility for that. If Germany has idiotically assumed the societal burden of importing more than a million Muslim refugees into its country, that was not America’s decision. If England’s economy is struggling under the growing burdens of creeping fascim, America did not do that. Sorry.

These other leaders dislike President Trump because, unlike most of his post-WWII predecessors, he refuses to smile and keep up the globalist lie. He’s exposing them for the leaches they have long been, and won’t be giving in. They all know this, they know the difficulties this new reality will cause them at home, and really have no idea how they’re going to deal with it all.

America First. Finally, a U.S. President who means that when he says it. These other national leaders never anticipated it.

Just another day of Trump putting America first.

That is all.

Please read my tagline for what is really happening in the Great Tariff Wars.
