U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday that the European Union is worse than China, hours after Washington and Beijing agreed to slash respective punitive tariffs and de-escalate their trade war.
“European Union is in many ways nastier than China, okay?” Trump said, as he lashed the bloc. “Oh, they’ll come down a lot. You watch. We have all the cards. They treat us very unfairly.”
All those pesky human rights, eh?
And anti corruption laws. Qatar can just give him a nice plane and get anything they want in return. The EU has laws against doing stuff like that.
It’s almost like they expect responsible leaders. Huh, isn’t that something.
So does the US. But laws are only worth their enforcement.
Goes without saying. The first Trump administration shows that as long as Congress doesn’t impeach and convict you, none of the laws meant to rein in the executive mean anything.
dude committed treason on live television and it wasn’t enough to engage the part of the constitution that says the only punishment for that is hanging
