Discussion: EU, Japan Reach 'Agreement In Principle' On Free Trade Deal

I guess pulling America out of the TPP is paying dividends already … for the EU and Japan.

The timing of the announcement is important, coming just before a summit of world leaders in Hamburg, Germany.

Yes. It’s called a “SLAP!”

Trump is expected to express his discontent with free trade and his desire to renegotiate some deals.

And will be told “FOAD!”

So much winning for the fine-tuned machine.

Nature abhors a vacuum. So as Trump continues to degrade America as a world leader, others…in particular the EU…will move in to fill that vacuum.

This phenomenon will get much worse at the regional level. The Middle East is one area where this is playing out right now vis a vis Qatar. But there will be more, all across the globe.
