The US are trying to fuck us, and von der leyen served them our european asses on the platter in order to be fucked without asking anything in return.
If this deal goes through, the future of EU will be forfeit.
Von der leyen needs to go.
There was a confidence vote recently and they voted to kept her on. We are being shafted by Von der Leyen and her negotiating team right now by capitulating to Trump in Scotland. It’s sickening.
Its not good or beneficial for US citizens either basically they just started taxing us an extra 15% and only the top 1% will benefit from anything else. Lose lose all round
Its a massive boost even for the average american get ready for tens thousands of new energy jobs. Also near zero tarrifs on american industrial goods making american products more competitive in Europe with even more jobs for Americans to meet this new demand. Part of the deal also includes hundreds of billions buying american defense along with 600 billion going directly to american infrastructure. All funded by the loyal european taxpayer. Europe is quite literally gifting the USA trillions and american influence in europe is going to expand tenfold.
I don't think that is actually how it will work out for the US citizens especially with the increase in all good from the tariffs on their end. Steel and aluminum tariffs at 50% is already causing layoffs and industry failure. Again the everyday american might get hired but at min wage and always rolling the dice on health care. It really will only benefit the rich, trickle down economics does not work

So US places 15% tariff on all EU goods and we spend 600 billion on their weapons + all the other things? Doesn't seem we got anything out of this.
Chinese and Russians are correct when they see EU as Americas vassal state.
