Cowards, who cares about Trump’s feelings.
- Nobody cares about Trump's feelings; but the EU should care about the very real consequences of a trade war on its citizens, as well as the citizens of the US. This stuff has consequences beyond one guy's feelings.
  
  Agreed that they're cowards, though.
  
  Trump is gonna do what he wants either way.
  
  What about the consequences of letting American companies destroy Europe?
Well that’s just embarrassing. I will remember this.
- Add another stupid EU decision "bowing before Orange" to the huge pile.
As an American: fuck the US. Tax and fine the shit out of us. I'll go hungry for a bit if it means real consequences for these pieces of shit.
We need to start shaming businesses and people who have "social media" on those platforms, like with X-Twitter.
How can they just "limit the fines"? Aren't they set by a court?
- No i think it's more of a commission/ institute that fines them.
  
  Ok, I would have thought they are somehow legally binding nonetheless
WTF?
