Well, here's some interesting news on the TARIFF front

[Mac1958]

Germany will offer to scrap the EU's 10% tax on US autos: Report

Maybe Trump's pressure on the tariff issue will ultimately cause reductions and re-alignment of tariffs overall.

Those of us who are still hoping for the best even though we didn't vote for him think this is a very positive development.

Those who are hoping for the worst, well, you can just keep hoping for the worst.

Thank you, they have a 10% tax and we have a :

There is a catch, however. Europe also wants a 25 percent tax on imported pickup trucks, SUVs and big vans scrapped, according to the report. That tax has been in place since the Johnson administration and scrapping it could alienate U.S. auto workers, a key constituency for President Donald Trump.

LOL. and we have a 25% tax.

Yes, as I said, keep hoping for the worst.

And be sure to focus on every negative possible.
