The US said a 25% tax on steel and 10% tax on aluminium from the EU, Mexico and Canada will start at midnight.
The move immediately triggered vows of retaliation from Mexico, Canada and the EU, which called the tariffs "protectionism, pure and simple".
The UK said it was "deeply disappointed" by the US decision, which followed weeks of negotiations.
Which look like a practice run for our post-Brexit negotiations for free trade agreements.
That is, a shambles.

It's looking like most of the civilised world is backing away from the empire of chaos.
Fuck the dollar we'll trade in Euros and Yuan.
Fuck America.
Fuck NATO.
That is what Trump is now creating and his handlers must know what they're doing.
Europe is being pushed eastward.
Is this the long slow birth of the Eurasian empire starting to really take off thanks to America?
Where will the UK stand?
Alone in between America and Eurasia.
Eurasia dwarfs America for resources manpower and wealth.
Dangerous times.
If America becomes much more isolationist it may well trigger the withdrawal of America troops from the middle east so they can take over the south American continent for all its needs.
Crazy?
Maybe.

Seems to me the Yanks are out to seriously damage global trade and finance which may well result in accelerating the next financial collapse.
They must know what they are doing and why.

Is that a tough concept for you? Or are you just too lazy or too mind numbed from reading these ridiculous publications that dont state the facts.
When one side(for example China) tariffs the hell out of you and restricts imports of goods---and the other side(for example the USA doesnt tariff their goods--creating huge trade deficits and loss of jobs)
then it is perfectly reasonable to tariff China in order to create a fair playing field.
Is that so difficult to understand??
The ignorance on TSD is just appalling at times.

Meanwhile you totally ignore the fact that the dotard is in bed with Putin, Jinping, Duterte and other dictators across the world. Basically, everything's being run by the mafia and for the mafia. You're right about a lot of things Jack but when it comes to predicting the NWO you're borderline retarded...
