The EU just announced retaliatory tariffs on $28 billion in American products

The EU just announced retaliatory tariffs on $28 billion in American products, matching President Trump's 25% tariff on steel and aluminum.

"Tariffs are taxes. They are bad for business and worse for consumers. They are disrupting supply chains. They bring uncertainty for the economy. Jobs are at stake. Prices up. Nobody needs that on both sides, neither in the European Union nor in the United States." - European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

The United States has subsidized Europe's lifestyle since the end of WW2, and now, when we finally decide to strengthen our domestic production and level the playing field, they throw a fit. Why are we still paying to defend them again? https://x.com/BehizyTweets/status/1899841720235470895
