The best response to US tariffs is to make free trade deals with UK, EU and others. Free trade will win over protectionism. Protectionism is just dumb and counterproductive.

I agree. Luckily it seems as if that’s starting to happen. It could be nice to see a closer tie in with the EU, but o don’t see that happening for a long time if ever.

We need more trading partners that simple are not America.

We have the resources the world needs. Let’s sell them to the world, and bring industry here at the same time.

I don’t understand. We already have a free trade agreement with Europe that has been coming online over the last several years. Why do you think we won’t expand it?
