NGL they have sure made it so we'll go independent. I wonder when it will hit them that together we're stronger, and making europe of all places your enemy isn't the smartest move.

They never will. They're barely even aware of any countries' efforts to decouple from the US. And by the time the damage is noticable, it will be retconned as having been inevitable and out of Trump's control.

While full independence from the US is going to take some time, the US has done such a good job of permanently killing any interest in being dependent. So, thank you Mr. Trump, so when you go to hell, you at least have one good thing that you managed to accomplish, albeit inadvertently.

Sure, if you don't count in the digital services sold by US. Counting in all trades, the balances are almost equal, compared to the trade volume.
