Donald Trump is a threat to the United States.

He is dismantling it. And that's why he's a threat to Europe.

This seems to be the elephant in the room.
The tariffs are meant to be permanent. Trump has said MANY times that he wants tariffs to replace or nearly eliminate the income tax (see this thread for examples). The media continues to frame his tariffs as a “bargaining chip” for other things. Tariffs ARE the objective.
So much self-inflicted suffering is coming because Trump thinks he can simply trade the income tax for the infinitely more regressive consumption tax (tariffs). The tariffs aren’t about fentanyl or other countries “ripping us off” — they’re about enriching oligarchs, but the plan will never work.
