This is an INSANE decision by the E.U.
“By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the U.S., the E.U. has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice that puts trade convenience ahead of saving lives.”
This will kill people.

"Newsom’s threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."

Another way the Trump administration is trying to kill people worldwide.
Trump wants more American pick-ups in Tokyo and London. That may be a hard sell
Donald Trump is right that Japan and Europe buy few American-made cars - but it has little to do with trade barriers. From Tokyo to London, many consumers see Detroit's offerings as simply too big and too gas-guzzling.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Europeans in summer: "WHY DOES MY HOUSE TAKE 3 DAYS TO COOL DOWN AFTER A HEATWAVE"
Maybe thermal mass (aka a bunch of hot bricks you need to wait to cool down) isn't actually a good thing.
