Oh, yes please!
It would be disastrous at first, but Europe would recover much stronger than before.
We would have to do a lot to catch up but the seeds are there and they cannot grow because they are in the shadow of the US industry.
The US giants have money and userbase to outperform anything Europe has at the moment and when they cannot outperform some company, they buy it. If Trump ever tries to cut US Tech off, European companies would grow rapidly to fill the void.

Yeah... USSR was a Union. In the same way prison is a form of hotel.

It seems to have started in America but has spread to Europe and other countries
Nah, Orban and Erdogan did conservative, nationalistic autocracy before it was cool.

Well, the rest is split between conservatives (more than 20) and liberals (around 15), 5 in the center (Hołownia is a sort of conservative who supports liberal government)... so it's close enough.

The good part is, that none of the two is a far right extremist.
Nawrocki is remotely controlled by the same person who has the remote to the President. Trzaskowski is controlled by the current government. So no matter who wins we should not expect any extreme turn.
The bad part is, that the third and the fourth place were far right extremists, who in previous elections would get, like, 5 percent total, now got 21 percent combined, which gets me worried for the next parliamentary elections.

Also, trump put tariffs on foreign movies. The entire European movie empire is in shambles /s...
Let's put tariffs on Hollywood, no way that would hurt the US, right?

For Luxembourg almost 80% are missing. Let's try to motivate bigger countries that are close to the threshold.
Looking at you France and Spain, just a little more!
Belgium, you are doing great, just a 1000 more please.

It's even dumber than that. Because, using the same parallel, he didn't do it only because she kicked him in the balls and pulled out a knife (meaning: Ukraine defended itself, it was not Moscow's decision to stop).

Apparently we didn't teach them correctly. The wheels were supposed to be turning, not tables!

Translation: used Teslas are now so unpopular, that only people regularly bombarded by Russia are willing to buy them (they probably dustrust Chinese cars more).

It is so weird that Poland, who does not have own motor company, voted to protect European auto makers, and Germany that IS the European car industry voted against. Make it make sense.

Ok, let's negotiate. How about this: I'll buy one Big Mac, and in return US will buy 3000 Volkswagens, 1500 Mercedes(es?!?) and at least 3 French or Italian cars...
That way the US ends up with good cars, and I am willing to risk my own health in order to improve the relations.

It shouldn't be sold. Just a fun gadget. You aim, shoot. The missile comes out one minute later, then flies so slowly, that you can actually run past it. But when... if... it hits something it is devastating... Sometimes.

Why is that embarrassing? Trump offers trade war, EUs counterproposal is tread deal. Much better to all involved... and also Trump most likely won't agree.

Yes, those are for rich people. Law doesn't apply to rich people in the US

I was today's years old (and that is a lot) when I found out Usenet is still alive and can be used to get... Hmmm... Entertainment. Where should I start if I want to get rid of Netflix?

We want Greenland. We think you are all worthless freeloaders. We wish to kill your businesses with tariffs because you dared to sell us things (and we don't care how bad that will be for our people. My voters are too stupid and brainwashed to care and the opposition doesn't matter)... Also buy our weapons!
