There were rumors a few weeks back that the EU was mumbling about dropping it’s tariffs on automobiles to zero, which of course is the end game for Trump in all areas of trade around the world - there’s no doubt the US economy is big enough to outlast any “trade war” we head into - just as we were strong enough to outlast the Russians in the defense buildup war under Reagan - the big question is, how much damage will be done until the war is won - like maybe loss of the midterms by the Republicans....
