I hope they do make the details public, but it does look like EU bent the knee with this one.

    What? How so what?

    «Nobody wants a trade war it will hurt us all»

    The deal is EU spends more money buying from the us (rather than using the free maket), and the us puts 15% tariffs on most, and 50% on some.

    To me that’s a one sided deal that is explained by “it could have been worse“. Maybe it could, but maybe sending trump home with no deal and a promise of retaliation could have made for a real negotiation.

    He is literally doing the same thing he explains in his book. The only way to counter is to do the same.
