Today, 8:56 am

I watched most if yesterday.   IMO, Trump looked very weak  and pathetic.

Tell me, genius.
Would a "weak and pathetic" president be capable of getting his trade deal signed with the EU that eliminates the tariffs they imposed on the US last year?
The deal eliminates all the tariffs the EU charged the US on a wide range of industrial goods like machine parts, tools, cars, electronics, automotive parts, and lobsters.

Think the EU agrees that Trump is weak and pathetic now that he's cleaned their clock on tariffs?

EU Parliament passes transatlantic trade deal
Politico June 16, 2026 By Camille Gijs

The European Parliament approved legislation on Tuesday to implement the EU’s trade deal with the United States, marking one of the final hurdles in a process that has repeatedly frustrated the Trump administration.Lawmakers voted by 440 in favor, with 151 against and 50 abstaining, to approve changes to legislation to remove tariffs on U.S. industrial goods and some agricultural products — fulfilling the EU’s side of the agreement struck last July at President Donald Trump’s golf resort in Turnberry, Scotland. Washington had agreed to cap tariffs on most EU exports at 15 percent and to lower levies on European cars. Those changes took effect last fall.

• Tuesday's vote follows a framework deal in July 2025
• Vote is last significant legislative hurdle to implementing EU side of the deal
• U.S. still has ​to put in place 15% tariffs, is set to do so by July 24

BRUSSELS, June 16 (Reuters) - The European Parliament approved on Tuesday cutting duties on many U.S. goods imports to fulfill the European Union's side of a trade deal struck last year, and avert a new round of tariff conflict between the world's largest trading partners.
U.S. President Donald ​Trump, opens new tabstruck a framework deal with the European Union at his Turnberry golf course in Scotland last ​July under which the EU agreed to remove import duties on U.S. industrial goods in ⁠return for U.S. tariffs of 15% on most EU goods.

Yet we hear hardly a peep from the liberal idiots who were all screaming bloody murder when Trump imposed his new tariff policies last year that resulted in  additional revenue to the US of nearly half a trillion dollars in less than a year.

"Weak and pathetic", huh moron?
