    The rest of the world is just dealing with other countries at this point. Tariff threat is meaning less and less the more Trump uses it because there are ample opportunities elsewhere.

      Trump dying won’t end US fascism. The specific policies may change under Vance (or whoever) but the political movement will be the same.

        Typical trash tier journalism from the canary, apparently no comment to an on the spot question about military matters (US using UK bases) to a minister who isnt in charge of that (she’s minister for development in Africa) is somehow “UK backs US powerplay for Greenland”

        Edit: Especially funny now that the UK is on Trumps list for retaliatory tariffs for blocking his annexation of Greenland
