Before the BREXIT vote, President Obama warned Great Britain that if they chose independence from the tentacles of the EU, they’d be punished with a ‘back of the queue’ trade deal. Conservatards were up in arms over his threats and declared Obama’s shilling to be more globalist cuckery — widely derided by the right as unnecessary meddling.
After the election, Britain’s Boris Johnson did a cringe-worthy video declaring that Great Britain would be placed at the ‘front of the line’ for a trade deal — inferring he had learned this after meetings with Trump.
But since Trump’s body had been snatched and brain infiltrated by the anti-christ himself, Jared Kushner, all of that pre-body snatch rhetoric is now meaningless. Trump’s a neocon globalist now and has made it clear that he intends to renege on just about every single campaign pledge, in record time.
Trump is going to place the EU in front of the UK, kicking the limey bastards to the back of the line where Obama said they belonged — because Angela Merkel convinced him to place the EU first.
The United States could strike a free-trade agreement with the European Union after President Donald Trump warmed to a deal with the bloc, the Times reported on Saturday, quoting sources from both sides of the discussion.
Post-Brexit Britain would be pushed behind Europe in the race to secure a U.S. deal after Germany’s Angela Merkel persuaded Trump that talks on a deal would be simpler than he thought, the newspaper said.
Britain will not be free to agree new trade deals until it has left the EU in 2019.
A source close to the White House was quoted as saying that there had been a “realisation” in the Trump administration that a trade deal with the EU – allowing the tariff-free exchange of goods and services – was more important to U.S. interests than a post-Brexit deal with Britain.
“Ten times Trump asked her (Merkel) if he could negotiate a trade deal with Germany,” the newspaper quoted a senior German politician as saying.
“Every time she replied, ‘You can’t do a trade deal with Germany, only the EU’,” the politician said. “On the eleventh refusal, Trump finally got the message, ‘Oh, we’ll do a deal with Europe then.’”
Trump, who has repeatedly criticised the EU, had welcomed Britain’s 2016 vote to leave the bloc and said he would work hard to get a quick bilateral trade deal done.
But German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said on Friday he was optimistic a U.S.-EU trade deal could be reached soon after he met his U.S. counterpart in Washington.
Here was Boris Johnson back in January, elated at the news that Trump was putting the UK in the ‘front of the queue.’ HAHAHAHAHA, suckers. Enjoy your great depression.
Next up, Trump is going to take your guns away. Trumpsters beat down again.
