On the surface Trumps done well! While Europe I think can claim damage limitation. Underneath Id say Europe has agreed to buy the things it currently needs anyway, Weapons and energy. If I were a guessing man Id say they will work on becoming more self sufficient in those aspects and this gives them time. | ||

Yeah, I'm afraid the US has hurt its longterm national interests in exchange for some short term puffery and gratification of the egotist in chief. | |||

From what I see so far, it seems both parties are relatively happy. So maybe a reasonable compromise. I think though time will tell and I wonder how much Europe is just waiting for a change in govt? | |||

Everybody smiles, everybody shakes hands for the cameras, Trump gets to boast - about something that’s not on paper and has not been ratified by either group of legislators. The International community has learned how to handle the Petulant Child King. Pat him on the head, tell him how great he is, and send him on his way while quietly establishing serious trade connections with mentally competent countries. They all know he’ll change his mind twice before his plane lands anyway. | |||

For us this is not a bad thing. It has definitely given bilateral free trade deals a sense of urgency in many nations. We have recently completed deals with the UAE, The Uk, and are moving forward with India And Mexico/South America, While our dispute with Canada over access for our dairy products got quickly resolved for some reason. | |||

You do realize that the dairy product tariff (duly ratified in NAFTA) was set to kick in at a level that was Never. Once. Reached. It was just an issue that Trump latched onto for an excuse to bitch and play his crooked games. There is no ‘urgency’ - there’s only a strategy to mollify a pathological liar and dangerous heavily armed megalomaniac until the world sheds itself of him. | |||

Im not versed well in NAFTA to comment. We were at loggerheads with Canada ourselves, and coincidently or not they accepted our position when this all happened. I simply have a suspicion the two are linked. | |||

I guess time will tell. I suspect the long term looks shaky... But these concessions are also coming with the promises of massive investment in the US. As you say, will they end up being ratified? | |||

Yes, each individual nation has to sign off. I do not know. I think the EU, more or less, decided someone had to prevent a near international economic collapse/crisis. I think so ratification through legislation, these tariffs are going away. However, this S. Ct., majority has had one through line: expand the power of the Executive. Trump and his team are not smart enough or thoughtful enough to care. | |||

Cool, go get your rulers to place a mutual embargo on the US -- We'll see how that goes .. it will literally cost more in shipping TO a west coast terminal than to put in a pipeline to the US... In the south, we call this "cutting off your nose to spite your face" Canada CAN'T win this -- and they can't even make the investments (Pierre had a post on this yesterday) for plants and pipelines -- oh, precious, we EXPORT more LNG than Canada makes .. you are holding a busted hand, 9 high .. good luck opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

You should question whatever meds or recreational substances you are using. Of course the US "can" export our LNG, in fact we are the largest exporter on the planet.

for the record: The United States remained a net crude oil importer in 2022, importing about 6.28 million b/d of crude oil and exporting about 3.58 million b/d. Some of the crude oil that the U.S. imports is refined by U.S. refineries into petroleum products—such as gasoline, heating oil, diesel fuel, and jet fuel—that the U.S. later exports. Also, some of imported petroleum may be stored and later exported. https://www.eia.gov/energyexpl...orts-and-exports.php Natural gas imports peaked in 2007 Total U.S. annual natural gas imports in 2007 reached about 4.61 Tcf (12.62 billion cubic feet per day [Bcf/d]) and have generally declined each year since then. In 2022, total annual U.S. natural gas imports were about 3.02 Tcf (8.28 Bcf/d), which was about 8% more than in 2021 and the highest volume since 2017. Some of this imported natural gas may have been exported. Most of U.S. natural gas imports are from Canada In 2022, about 99% of U.S. total annual natural gas imports were from Canada and nearly all by pipeline. A small amount of CNG —0.01% of total natural gas imports—was tranported by truck from Canada. About 1% of total U.S. natural gas imports was LNG; 99% was from Trinidad and Tobago and the remainder was from Canada. U.S. natural gas imports are generally highest in winter when imports help meet increases in natural gas demand for heating. https://www.eia.gov/energyexpl...orts-and-exports.php to sum up you are importing from us to export oil and natural gas but continue to fool your self as you do not need canada lol | |||

yes, we absolutely export oil, gas, and LNG -- are you under the impression that US can't export it's own oil? what it can't do, for WTI, is generally process it, so we sell it for X and buy ME oil for roughly the same, saving BILLIONS of EPA regs and capex to not build new refineries -- we EXPORT more LNG than import natgas from canada (these are different products) - oh, sweetheart - here, you might read up on YOUR COUNTRY's exports - https://www.capp.ca/wp-content...-and-Natural-Gas.pdf three US states have a higher GDP than ALL of canada - and total US GDP is 10x Canada This isn't a dispute between equals, you should recognize that --- 10x -- let's make certain we understand that -- like toddler threatening "The Mountain" . 40 something vs 400 something it only took Shell Canada SEVEN YEARS to barely get 1/2 an LNG plant operating -- Canada could cut off ALL petrol to the US, and in, under this "regime" would have a mathballed refinery up and running in 18 months, and you hissy fit MIGHT raise gas prices 5¢ for 18 months -- and process WTI, which would cascade to other plants coming on line to do the same, to harvest this economic boon atm, a barrel of brent is $73 and a bit (that's like 100 loonies) - OH MY GOODNESS, WTI is a couple bucks cheaper .... you might be old enough to get this "Don't throw me in that briar patch" opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?
