  1. The US has a 25% tariff on Pickup trucks and vans forever on Europe. GM and Ford would be dead and buried already if Mercedes, BMW, Lamborghini, Landrover or VW competed in the US market. Imagine a Ferrari F series. Ford who!? Bugatti Raptor! Make better cars like Tesla's, they do sell here. Trump has 4 European cars and Musk has 8. 🤣 You absolutely love our cars. You had posters of European cars above your bed when you were a child. The US car industry competing with the European one is a joke. We would crush GM and Ford with pickup trucks easily. Take the back roof off a Range Rover and it's over for pickup brands in the US.

  2. Compete, my behind. We would've killed the US car industry years ago without 25% tariffs on pickups and vans from Europe. Ford would be dead and buried already by Mercedes, Fiat, BMW, Ferrari, VW, Renault, Mini, McLaren, Lamborghini or Porsche. You think Mercedes can't make a pickup truck. 🤣 They don't sell in Europe. If that tariff is gone Ford and all the US pickup brands are done. We make better cars. Tesla does do well here. Make more of those. Trade works very simple. It isn't hard. We save our money in Europe. We don't consume like Americans do. You absolutely love our products too. Trump has 4 European cars and Musk has 8. Melania is running around with Louis Vuitton bags in Dior dresses with Swiss watches. European products are status symbols and US products are not. It's with everything. Moët Champagne, European wine, cheese, everything is better. You've got technology, but we can buy Samsung. Not really by the way, because the one that applies Moore's law to chips is ASML Netherlands. You even don't have that anymore. With food the US sells poison, we will never take that. This is Europe. Fresh food is a huge thing here. In Italy since last year you can go to jail for selling a bag of Skittles. That's far right Meloni who was at the inauguration of Trump who implemented that law. See food as the American flag for Europe. You do not mess with that at all. Food is pride and culture. Tell a German a hamburger is a US product. Ask at a Italian restaurant if they've a pineapple pizza. I dare you! That's like burning a US flag. Wanna see a France guy, Dutch guy and a Italian fight to the death? Ask them who has the best cheese.

  3. Nonsense. The US has 25% on pickup trucks and vans from Europe. It's the highest tariff between our parts of the world. We don't buy your food because it's poison. Change it and we can do a deal. Trump signed away food protection agencies in the US, so a deal is more unlikely. We like fresh food over here without E coli or other diseases. Also without hormones and adjectives. Change it and we can trade. Look up a video about hamburger ingredients from McDonalds between Europe and the US. There's like 10 ingredients more in a US McDonalds burger that are all bad for you. It's like eating plastic. RFK. Jr. is right, if he changed it to the European model on food we can do a deal. Can't believe i'm agreeing with RFK. Jr by the way. Fresh food is a big thing in Europe. You do not mess with that at all. We gladly take a tariff and go to war for that. In far right Italy since last year you get jail time for selling a bag of Skittles and Meloni was at Trump his inauguration. She isn't doing a deal on food. We take food very seriously over here.

  4. Why would we? Trump will still buy that 3rd Rolls Royce or second Ferrari with tariffs. We sell the luxury to the US. You sell tech to us. A Samsung sounds pretty nice. I actually bought a new PC just this week. I'm good for 4 years. I suggest if people want tech, buy it now and use it for 4 years. Do not wait!!!!!

  5. Tell a German a hamburger is a US product. Ask at a Italian restaurant if they've a pineapple pizza in Italy. I dare you! That's like burning a US flag. Wanna see a France guy, Dutch guy and a Italian fight to the death? Ask them who has the best cheese. I do not thing you understand how big fresh food is here in Europe. Get that poison out of your food and we can talk. Signing away food protection agencies like 3 days ago by Trump in the US is not wanting us to buy US food. You go to jail in Italy for selling a bag of Skittles since last year under Meloni. Food is our pride and joy in Europe. It's defines our culture. It's patriotism. It's really like burning a US flag and yelling death to America. We would go to war over food. There's literally no chance at all we take your agricultural products if you give us poisoned food products. The whole food industry of the US would need to be changed. Missed the farmers strikes in Europe? Imagine now the whole population like that over beef and chicken with hormones in it. You poison is cheaper for a reason. You don't understand how big food is here.
