Trump will not stop until he kills Europe

Trump just hit Europe hard. He promised Europe, but he changed his mind after a phone call with Putin. He even refused to sit at the table with his children. He gave them the biggest humiliation.

But it's not over yet. He started to act ruthlessly again. This time he wanted to kill them all. It's better to pursue the enemy with the remaining courage. Trump said that if I can't kill Europe, I will be incompetent.

On May 23, Trump posted a message on Twitter, saying a lot. It was a whole traitorous message to the EU.

Trump said:

The main purpose of the establishment of the EU is to take advantage of the United States in trade. It has always been difficult to deal with. They set up strong trade barriers, levied value-added taxes, ridiculous corporate fines, non-monetary trade barriers, currency manipulation, unfair and unreasonable lawsuits against American companies, etc., which led to the EU's trade deficit with the United States becoming larger and larger, which is completely unacceptable.

Our negotiations with the EU have made no progress! Therefore, I suggest that a 50% tariff be imposed directly on EU products from June 1, 2025.

Unless the product is manufactured or produced in the United States, there is no need to pay tariffs.

Trump originally said that the establishment of the European Union was to target the United States. This time he was even more ruthless, saying that the European Union is a group of bad guys who have taken advantage of the United States. They can no longer be allowed to take advantage and buy good behavior. They must be severely hit.

Why does Trump always want to clean up the European Union? I will briefly talk about four reasons.

First, the European Union is the remnant of Biden and the Democratic Party, and it is an overseas base of the left. They must be eradicated without leaving any future troubles, otherwise Trump will not be safe once he retires from the presidency.

Didn’t Trump start to clean up Harvard University yesterday? He wants to cancel Harvard’s international student business.

The reason is the same, because Trump believes that the American education system is a big cancer and the birthplace of white left thought, and has always been against him.

Especially Trump has been angry with Harvard University for a long time. Harvard has been against him for many years, from economic policies to immigration bills, and has also organized activities to support Palestine... This is the academic nest of the Democratic Party and the last bastion of diversity.

During the election last year, Harvard professors accused him of falsifying data and refuted his economic policies in a series of papers, which made Trump so angry that he tweeted that Harvard was a den of liars.

Now Trump has finally taken action and wants to cut off Harvard's international student enrollment qualifications. It is clear that he is unhappy and no one can have a good life!

Trump must now eliminate these hidden dangers one by one, and he can retire safely in four years, otherwise these guys will inevitably counterattack.

The same is true in Europe. Headed by von der Leyen, they are all diehard party members of the Democratic Party. They will never obey him, so he will take the initiative to kill them.

The second reason is that Trump and his friends want to make money.

As soon as Trump said he was going to deal with the EU, European stocks plummeted. I don't believe that Trump didn't short Europe this time. He must lead his friends to make a fortune again.

The Democrats are so angry now, especially Pelosi. There is really nothing they can do.

Trump wants to manipulate the stock market. It's as simple as 1+1. Just send a tweet and you can count the money...

After that, Trump can brag to the camera again. Look how much money my friend made. He made $1.4 billion yesterday morning, and he made $2.5 billion yesterday.

Let's talk about the third reason.

Trump's second term is to completely let go of himself. It is clear that whoever makes me happy, I will give benefits to him, and whoever makes me unhappy today, I will make him unhappy for life.

Vance's friends are flattering him desperately, and Trump is also clear. Whoever likes me, I will give him an official position.

Putin complimented Trump, giving him great emotional value. Trump was overjoyed and immediately said that Putin was a brother. He didn't care about sanctions against Russia or ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Trump wanted to say forget about Ukraine, just fight Portugal if you have the ability.

Compared with these brothers, the EU always plays a counter-play, and Trump got angry when he saw it, and he had been thinking about cleaning them up.

Trump's principle is: treat brothers as warmly as spring, and treat enemies as ruthlessly as autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves...

Of course, Trump also wants to deal with China, but unfortunately he can't win, and China has taught him how to be a man.

Then Trump said: If I can't win China, can I still kill Europe?

Then the fourth point is important. Trump always says that the establishment of the EU is to target the United States and take advantage of the United States. Is what he said right?

It really makes sense!

What the Anglo-Saxons love to do most is to split the world into small pieces, so that there is no pressure to harvest.

After World War II, the United States tried desperately to suppress Britain and France, and wanted to make Europe fall into a complete division.

But unfortunately, the French President Charles de Gaulle at that time was one of the global anti-American pioneers, and he opposed the United States everywhere. Under the organization of Charles de Gaulle, Europe was united and the predecessor of the European Union was established.

In 1999, the European Union released the euro. The whole of Europe was confident in the future, which immediately caused great competitive pressure on the United States. Nearly $100 billion of hot money ran from the United States to Europe every week.

The United States was very panicked about this and realized that if it was left alone, Europe would become a big problem.

Then Saddam Hussein of Iraq announced that he would use the euro to settle oil in the future, which was the death of the United States. This was a move on the national capital of the dollar oil!

This issue needs to be discussed in detail.

The Iraq War was actually fought twice. The first was the Gulf War in the 1990s. This was one of the few times that the United States stood on the side of justice. Because Iraq invaded Kuwait, the United Nations repeatedly asked Saddam to withdraw his troops, but Saddam refused to listen. The entire Middle East was in panic, and Saudi Arabia was even more frightened. It desperately asked the United States to protect itself. In the end, the US military entered Saudi Arabia, which indirectly led to the breakup between Bin Laden and the Saudi Crown Prince and the anti-American path. This is a later story, let's not talk about it for now...

Anyway, in the Gulf War in the 1990s, the United States was formally authorized by the United Nations and attacked Iraq under the banner of maintaining peace. Of course, the United States also had its own ideas and took deeper control of the Middle East.

But even so, after Saddam admitted his defeat, the United States withdrew its troops and did not kill Iraq, because the United States also knew that if it fought a long war in Iraq, it would definitely be a losing business.

But it was different in 2003. The United States had no excuse at all, and the so-called weapons of mass destruction were fictitious. All European countries except Britain opposed the United States to send troops, and the United Nations did not authorize it. However, the United States invaded Iraq and then wallowed in the quagmire for more than ten years.

Why is this? As I just said, the United States did not invade Iraq in the 1990s even if it had a legitimate reason.

The reason is what we just said. Saddam's invasion of Kuwait was really not a big deal for the United States, but Saddam dared to exchange oil for euros, which would affect the foundation of the United States, and the United States would fight to the death!

Because the United States absolutely cannot tolerate the European Union becoming bigger and stronger, and it must be divided into pieces.........

In addition to the Iraq War, the United States also launched the Kosovo War, which was crazy and indiscriminate bombing on the edge of the European Union, and the war was approaching the Balkan Peninsula, the heartland of the euro zone.

This move severely damaged investor confidence, making everyone believe that Europe is no longer safe, and quickly suppressed the euro exchange rate, which plummeted by 30%. The situation immediately reversed, and a large amount of European capital fled to the United States.

That is to say, through these two wars, Europe was completely defeated and dared not have any disloyal intentions. After that, the EU became a loyal licker of the United States.

So, Trump said that the EU was originally established to target the United States, and this organization was to undermine the United States.

But Trump's words are both right and wrong. The EU did want to develop at a high speed, but was soon defeated by the United States, especially in the Biden era, and it was definitely a follower of the United States.

Today, if you say that the EU wants to rebel against the United States, no one will believe it.

So Trump wants to clean up the EU, more out of personal grudges. If you insist that it is for the good of the United States, then you have to tear the EU apart. After all, a bunch of messy small countries, each fighting for their own interests, are more efficient to harvest.

If you want to find a reason, it is that the current fiscal crisis in the United States has become more and more severe, and the United States cannot harvest China. It really can't win, so don't worry, harvest the allies first to prolong its life...

The above is the reason why Trump wants to kill the EU.

The EU is in a bad situation now. The Russia-Ukraine negotiations have already become a laughing stock. On one hand, they have to face the pressure from Russia, and on the other hand, they have to face the violent harvest from the United States.

The reason why Trump wants to deal with the EU is that the EU has a large trade surplus with the United States and has taken advantage of it.

In fact, the EU is really wronged in this matter.......

For example, in 2023, the EU's trade surplus with the United States is 168.6 billion US dollars. Do you think it's a lot? In fact, it's not the case.

Because the EU has been declining in the past 20 years, old industries have been constantly lost, and emerging industries, whether Internet, artificial intelligence or new energy, have not been obtained.

What Internet companies does the EU have? What AI technology?

It is precisely because of this that a large number of Internet services in the EU are provided by the United States. Therefore, in 2023, the United States will have a trade surplus of 112.6 billion US dollars with the EU, and the overall deficit is 56 billion US dollars, not as much as Trump said.

But it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, if you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext. Let alone a trade deficit of $56 billion, even if the United States has a trade surplus, it will still punish Europe.

The United States has been robbing Europe openly, and it doesn't need a reason at all.

Let's not talk about the familiar Alstom, and the most typical Siemens in 2008.

The US government said that Siemens bribed local government officials in Argentina, Bangladesh, Venezuela, Iraq, Russia and other countries, and wanted to punish Siemens.

This matter has nothing to do with the United States. Siemens is of course not convinced, but it can't change its mind. After several years of litigation, Siemens lost the case and was fined $1.6 billion. Even the German government couldn't escape, and was fined $400 million...

Since then, the United States has been unstoppable, focusing on European companies and paying special attention to the European banking industry.

At the most exaggerated time, Deutsche Bank was fined $1.4 billion in 2015;

HSBC was fined $1.7 billion in 2012;

BNP Paribas was fined $8.9 billion in 2014!

.....

The United States basically goes to Europe every other day to get a handful of wool. It can be said that as long as European companies are big, they have almost never been robbed by the United States.

But today's Europe is the most uncomfortable, because in the Biden era, although Europe is also robbed, they still call them brothers, at least they look like they are at the table.

Trump looks at Europe with disgust, thinking that Europe is worse than dogs, and he doesn't even let them sit at the table with children.

It turns out that although Europe has lost all its inner strength, it still has face. Now Trump doesn't even give them face!

If the United States wants to fight a trade war with the EU and impose tariffs, can the EU win?

How can they win.......

The EU has always been undermining each other and has never been united. The so-called unity is a complete joke.

Next, let's analyze the EU's export structure to the United States.

China can launch a reciprocal countermeasure because Chinese products are irreplaceable, but European products are not the same.

Europe's exports to the United States are mainly divided into several categories.

The first category is machinery and automobiles, which account for the highest proportion, accounting for 41%. For example, Mercedes-Benz and BMW account for 85% of the US luxury car market. This is really not technically difficult. American automobile companies should cheer for Trump.

Trump wants to force European car manufacturers to open factories in the United States and completely hollow out Europe.......

There are also machinery, such as Comau's industrial robots in Italy, but this part has no advantage now. Just like the German shield machine was very powerful before, it is no longer good now. Chinese and Japanese products can replace it.

The second part is high-end manufactured products, accounting for 16%. Simply put, it is luxury goods of old European projects.

For example, high-end furniture from Italy, watches from Switzerland, and handbags from France...

This part has some cultural value attributes, but it is not a necessity at all.

There are also special metal materials. Doesn't the United States always say that it will impose steel and aluminum tariffs? Especially some special steels, this part is not irreplaceable, and East Asia can produce them.

The third part is pharmaceuticals and chemical products, accounting for 12%. Among them, the EU still has some patents on some special medicines, such as insulin and anti-cancer drugs, and the United States has not found any substitutes for the time being;

The fourth part is the semiconductor equipment that everyone is familiar with, especially the Dutch lithography machine. The United States is completely blind to this part and can't make it at all;

The fifth part is French daily necessities, accounting for about 8%, mainly French cosmetics and Italian alcoholic products... This part... uh, there is no technicality at all, and it can be replaced in minutes.

After looking at this product structure, does the United States dare to start a trade war with the European Union?

That's really daring... A trade war with China will backfire in a matter of minutes, and the shelves in the United States will be empty immediately. But without Europe, the United States really has no problem, because these products in Europe are very niche.

That is, special drugs and lithography machines are a bit troublesome, and there is really nothing else that Europe can hold back. The key is that it dares not to hold back even if it can, and this is the most important thing.

Trump said that if you have the ability, don't sell lithography machines to the United States. I wonder if you have the courage!

In fact, whether there will be a trade war between the United States and Europe, and whether Trump can kill Europe, it doesn't matter.

Maybe Trump just wants to make a fortune by speculating in stocks.

But the important thing is that they are fighting each other quickly, letting people all over the world watch a big show, and Trump is desperately trying to push Europe to the opposite side of himself...

Europe follows the United States every day to show off its power. When the United States slanders someone, it follows behind and curses. Now it's good, it is beaten up by the United States, it's so sour.

Just two days ago, the United States made it clear that it would not act in conjunction with Europe, but Europe immediately launched the 17th round of sanctions against Russia. As a result, just one day later, Trump began to clean up Europe. The situation changed too quickly.

Trump said, "You dare to bully my Putin brother? Wait, I will kill you right away..."

Now Trump has not made clear his demands on the EU, but based on his previous remarks, he wants Europe to:

First, cancel the tariffs on US cars exported to the EU;

Second, purchase a large amount of US oil and natural gas to contribute to the US energy capacity explosion;

Third, purchase a large amount of US agricultural products, especially genetically modified crops;

Fourth, abolish the digital service tax on US Internet companies;

Fifth, abolish new energy subsidies, Trump said this is unfair to US companies...

Anyway, Trump will definitely take a layer of skin off Europe this time, such as forcing Europe to buy US natural gas. The US natural gas price to Europe is 2.4 times that of the local market and 1.8 times the original Russian price. After the Russian-Ukrainian war, the EU was forced to purchase a large amount of high-priced US energy, paying an extra $47 billion a year, and became a pure sucker, but Trump thinks it is far from enough.

Europe deserves what it has today.

In 2023, the German Foreign Minister went on a business trip to Brazil. After seeing Lula, he said bitterly:

I am so disappointed with you. Brazilians are still concerned about the prices of beef and soybeans in supermarkets. Don’t you know that Ukraine is still at war?

Just tell me whether such people should die.

Now Trump is going to kill Europe, so what should Europe do?

In fact, it doesn’t matter. Europe still has one last trump card to save its life.

Now Europe’s economy is in a mess, but foreign students continue to give blood transfusions to Europe. In the UK alone, there are more than 160,000 foreign students from a certain country, bringing them a vigorous vitality for economic development.

Now that Trump has hit Harvard hard, Europe has ushered in a new round of opportunities. Hurry up and recruit more foreign students and teach them how to do economics. Once they learn it, they can continue to decline like Europe.

European nobles have been stroking the recession curve for more than 20 years, just like appreciating the patina of antiques. Europe says that industrial hegemons are nothing, and that’s all a trick of nouveau riche!

We in Europe have been in steady decline for 20 years, with an error of no more than 1%! China will never understand this kind of determination! You should pay the tuition and come to study here!

I can only say that Europe is still pretty awesome. A place with such a decline in industry and economy can still fool so many students to study there.

Why is "The White House Strict Selection" a hero list?

You must know that these sanctions from the United States will inevitably fail in the future. Industry is the foundation of scientific and technological innovation. Chinese technology will inevitably reach the top of the world one day!

Let me tell you a reason. Why is "The White House Strict Selection" credible?

Because the White House only sanctions one situation - "a certain technology is about to break through and will pose a huge threat to its technological hegemony in the future."

The White House will not sanction low-end industries, downstream industries generated by purchases and leases, and "international capital" that is actually controlled by the United States after layers of packaging... In addition, the White House will not sanction those industries that have made breakthroughs and are ahead of the United States, and whose supply chains are not restricted by any constraints, because it is meaningless.

In short, the White House is a bad group, not a fool. It only sanctions "useful" things. It is well prepared, not random.

For example, it is useful to sanction a certain technology company, because this company is already the world's number one in the field of communications, and its mobile phones have been the world's second. It began to design chips by itself and snatched the market share of several famous American technology companies (Cisco, Qualcomm, Apple)... But this company's chip manufacturing relies on the supply chain of the United States (TSMC). At that time, there was no domestic chip manufacturer that could replace it, so - "useful sanctions" can strangle it on the eve of its rise.

The White House has sanctioned thousands of Chinese companies, research institutes, and universities, which are basically in similar situations.

There are two types of sanctions by the White House. One is to cut off the source of key technologies, components, and intellectual property rights (as long as they come from the United States, they are not allowed to be used, and they cannot be bought with money); the other is to prevent the company's products and technologies from being sold to Europe and the United States...

You see, China's chips, systems, software, electronic technology, aerospace, aviation, automobiles, precision instruments, special materials and other industries have been sanctioned, because these fields of China are rising unstoppably and are on the eve of "first".

There are probably three situations that the White House does not sanction. One is the backward industry that "does not need sanctions" (very few), one is the "trading company" that is in you and me, stitching and reselling American technology and products, and the last one is the industry that is "too advanced and cannot be sanctioned".

So, if you look at the companies and units on the "White House Strict Selection" list, whether you like it or not, they are basically companies and units with core technologies, strong competitiveness, threats to American hegemony, and great prospects in the future.

In fact, being on the "White House Strict Selection" list is a good thing. On the one hand, being on this list proves one's own strength. On the other hand, it is also a real test - can you truly achieve independence, break through bottlenecks, achieve glory, and look down on the world under the blockade?

Don't get me wrong, it is not required that all companies must be on the "White House Strict Selection". After all, everyone has their own path and business. Sometimes, in some fields, they even have to maintain the state of "you have me and I have you" and "fight but not break". They need heroes and warriors who charge forward, and they also need lobbyists and businessmen who are good at maneuvering with long sleeves... After all, it is not time for a complete decisive battle. But this is not a reason for us to have illusions about the United States and the White House, because they don't want to do business or fair competition, they just want the lives of enterprises.

You must know that these sanctions from the United States will inevitably fail in the future. Industry is the foundation of scientific and technological innovation. Chinese technology will inevitably reach the top of the world one day!

Do you choose to stand on the side of the decadent old world? Or do you choose to stand on the side of the unstoppable historical torrent?
