George Pearkes @peark.es · 19/01/2026This is last April and tariffs all over again. Trump doesn’t have the minerals to take the market reaction to an invasion of Greenland. But the market knows that and therefore doesn’t collapse on incremental signals he is moving that way. It’s a pickle! 781082
George Pearkes @peark.es · 19/01/2026The way to end all this is for the EU to immediately get hyper-aggressive with sanctioning and tariffing every American they can find. The man has worse approvals than at any point in his prior term plus it’s an election year. It’s all a bluff. Call it! 321816333

Chris Wagner @chriswagner.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Tariffs and sanctions are tit for tat. They should get serious and dump just enough Treasuries to show they're done fucking around. 030
roentgenequivman.bsky.social @roentgenequivman.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I think the EU is buying time. Trump will drop Ukraine and cut off support including US weapons. I do hope Americams enjoy being poor. The dollar is going to go in the rubbish bin. Th only thing the US exports is debt. 140
Todd Kendall @alpinemigrant.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Absolutely correct. Go huge, make the pips squeak and wait for Taco. 020
George Pearkes @peark.es · 19/01/2026To everyone replying to complain about the EU not doing anything, thanks, gosh, I wasn’t aware of the last quarter century or so of EU politics, thank you for this new info. But a bet against the EU’s ability to sustain itself against all odds has been a VERY poor one over the past 20 years. 653222
AndrewNK @andrewnk.bsky.social · 19/01/2026EU should also focus heavily on individuals and corporations that are most fiercely enabling and caving to Trump. Hurt the techbro oligarchs, certain energy companies, the crypto folks. Immediate and harshly. Revoke visas of specific individuals even. They need to feel it. Bigly. 0160
Marcello Graziano 🇺🇦 @marcellograz.bsky.social · 19/01/2026That would be the correct response (asymmetry works with camorristi like goppers), but also a departure from EU culture of doing too something very late. 020
coffeeaddict.bsky.social @coffeeaddict.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Yes but a confederacy will not act proactively on anything They can’t even enforce their own laws vis-à-vis Twitter errr I mean X the everything CSAM app! 000

nufcnuf @nufcnuf.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Merz should send a letter to FIFA saying all EU countries are considering playing a "League of Friendlies," hosting European cultural festivals this summer instead of the World Cup, and Mercosur members have been invited to participate. 3150

Tracy Daniel @tracydaniel.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I’ve been saying since Trump was inaugurated the first time that people needed to tell him to fuck off. They keep acting like he’s a rational human being when both he and Stephen Miller are lunatics. Trump believes in tariffs because he views himself as a modern day Rockefeller or J.P. Morgan. 030

Kate @suneenart.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I agree in theory, but the Trump era has taught me not to say “he would never,” because he’s insane. 000
Steve Zorowitz @stevezorowitz.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I think they should concentrate on trump's biggest supporters--sanction/tariff Tesla, Twitter, and Spacelink, Meta, Palantir, etc. 0101
