    Spain should return the favor by seizing Trump crime family assets in their country (if any) and imposing economic sanctions on the US.

      I mean that would be the result if the orange idiot goes through with his announcement, as the EU has a unified trade policy to protect their member states of attacks like that.

          Haha don’t get your hopes up on that noose. He loves his life.

          Old people get skin things. They heal slower. It could have been he scratched too hard, it got infected, and it looked all gross.

              Oh boy I feel that. However, false hope, like “god,” will get you nowhere in the long run.

              There is no hope for the US. But a gun and hope they don’t come down your street.

                You ain’t wrong, but sometimes a bit of false hope to keep you moving is ok. And I’m already strapped

      As a Spaniard, no he doesn’t. I can’t help to loudly chuckle every time I see the press call him a ‘Socialist’ (not that I’m a commie either, mind you, but I’m not in a very different way than him) because the ‘Spanish Worker’s Socialist Party’ (lol) would be even slightly to the right of the American DNC imho, their a monarchist party after all. This is just an (quite fortunately) easy political win, and a diversion from all the shit the PSOE, and Sánchez in particular, have right now in their hands.

    What trade ya wanker?

    Since he started with the tariffs I’ve been trying to find a product labeled as ‘Made in USA’, no success so far. American brand tools are made here in the EU, Mexico, or China. Cars? No. Food? Nope.

    What about our products over there? Well, Spanish wine and olive oil are mainly labeled and sold as French and Italian, respectively, so…

    Trying to hold a NATO state accountable for actions they aren’t required to do while NATO releases that they won’t side with the US will probably earn some repercussions.
