Fuck around. Get found out.

Morning Bluesky.

The Trump administration is whining about the EU’s Rearm Europe defence plan.

Rubio: “Any exclusion of US companies from European tenders would be seen negatively by Washington.”

“Transatlantic defence industrial cooperation makes the Alliance stronger,” an official added.

Although you probably get a very good deal on ramparts from the yanks with all those Teslas lying around rusting.

consequences eh ?

doctorsnacks.bsky.social•24 days ago

freedom of speech is not freedom from consequence, as my old man told me

ianrobo.bsky.social•24 days ago

nope always said that but int he US it is now still here there are consequences ... hence rthe far right banging on about some encouraging a riot is a 'political' prisoner !

crigs.bsky.social•24 days ago

The EU has a 20 Trillion economy with a strong manufacturing sector of course they will exclude, let us say, an unreliable partner, that is the US.

winter02.bsky.social•24 days ago

Trump is so angry about that!

jimob1.bsky.social•24 days ago

If the deal is if you to protect us we buy your arms, the natural consequence of asking customers to stand on their own two feet is that your arms exports fall off a cliff. A 3 yr old could have seen this coming. Priceless! 🤣🤣

He was always going to Make China Great Again, this new Make Europe Great Again has become an unexpected plus.
Shame about America. Lots of nice people there, they don't deserve to go down so quickly, but ultimately it was their choice.

ellie141.bsky.social•24 days ago

MAGA are just so damn angry all.the.time! Trump is a rude aggressive bully who expects everyone to kiss ass. Because that’s how it’s always been for him. Well it’s time to grow up and get a reality check, it’s time for the grown ups to set the boundaries!

mcrosa.bsky.social•24 days ago

So does more general transatlantic cooperation, which Trump has fore sworn. So, y'know, they can f*ck off.

thedutchmeister.bsky.social•24 days ago

As mentioned elsewhere, anyone who doubts Europe’s ability to militarise ‘massively and at speed’ when it feels it needs to, is clearly no student of history. Which I guess sums up the Tango shit-gibbons administration.

Rubio: “Cake meet mouth”

ilikecaketoo.bsky.social•24 days ago

They really are just ignorant bullies who want everything to their advantage. No giving, just taking. Impossible to work with people like that.

opinionlassie.bsky.social•24 days ago

they don't want you to work WITH them, they want you to work FOR them. preferably from adolescence or younger.

ciarakeegan.bsky.social•24 days ago

it seems history is littered with egos/nuts who believe they can bull through china and yet somehow everything they are intent in destroying will be and continue in place afterwards in support of their magical new kingdom... quite mad really.

207michael.bsky.social•24 days ago

The simple thing is Trump if he hadn't messed around with NATO and Ukraine etc... would be laughing. America would be looking at increased orders for F35's, Patriot systems and more. He blew it because he's an idiot

breakstotheleft.bsky.social•24 days ago

What “alliance” are they referring to here? Trump threw NATO in the dustbin.

kdw.bsky.social•24 days ago

“Transatlantic defence industrial cooperation makes the Alliance stronger,”

shouldn’t have killed off that Alliance, then

jameselise160.bsky.social•24 days ago

Would that be the same US government that’s president said they wouldn’t sell us the good stuff in case we became the US’s enemies? Yeah, I do wonder why we aren’t keen on buying from them….

irritatedllama.bsky.social•24 days ago

U-turn on pulling out of NATO incoming.
US defense contractors won't stand for this.

dayamcg.bsky.social•24 days ago

Exactly, for all the US banging on about their historical burden of ‘carrying’ Europe etc. It’s made them rich and bought influence.

ericdouglas999.bsky.social•24 days ago

I mean, what the f*ck did they expect?!

nvgg.online•24 days ago

They can't really be this dumb can they? Oh wait, yes, Farage supports them so yes, they must be.

derekmacd18.bsky.social•24 days ago

Why would you buy arms from a country where the president has threatened to have kill switches on arms they sell us?

ajs1977.bsky.social•24 days ago

USA: “We want America’s allies in Europe to increase their defence spending and pay their own way in NATO NO NOT LIKE THAT”

sam0204.bsky.social•24 days ago

So America doesn't like Europe, but when they want to go their own way they start squealing like a pig.

sylvie-62.bsky.social•24 days ago

Eventually, the UK press has got to address this false victim hood narrative. Related, I see no reason why we have to be weaker than Carney in dealing with Trump… we aren’t in a shared trade agreement and we don’t have a land border. We are on the verge of “complying in advance” in our relationship.

sancardo.bsky.social•24 days ago

They cling to the illusion of a "special relationship" because it fits their "Make Britain Great Again" narrative, and they are terrified of us forging stronger links with EU. Hating Europeans and loving the Anglosphere is their stock in trade.

ladyboater.bsky.social•24 days ago

With the likes of Ferrari pushing the US victim narrative everyday it's unlikely

pondo1664.bsky.social•24 days ago

Never fucking happy, those morons.

averdade351.bsky.social•24 days ago

Nope .. one minute we are freeloading and now they don't like be left out which would cost them dearly. As you say , morons.

Could we get a European Facebook, run along Bluesky lines charges a member fee doesn't promote hate?

America "fuck you, Europe, you're on your own!"

Europe: "Ok, we'll take care of ourselves without you."

America: "No, not like that! Keep buying our stuff!!"

profdgpickernell.bsky.social•24 days ago

Well don't say you'll send substandard equipment in case we're not allies in future, ILL DOUCHĒ...

newman123.bsky.social•24 days ago

There really doesn’t seem to be any thought in the US administration about the consequences of their actions.
Government by whim, stupidity and cruelty
