Did Trump Just End the Trade War?

President Trump may have just ended a major part of the current trade war. All eyes have been focused on the President’s meeting with European Commission head Juncker today in Washington, an encounter that could spark trade fireworks between the US and EU. Most have said they have little hope of a positive outcome. Now, that might be entirely changed as the president last night tweeted out what must be the most hopeful statement of the whole trade war. He said “The European Union is coming to Washington tomorrow to negotiate a deal on Trade. I have an idea for them … Both the U.S. and the E.U. drop all Tariffs, Barriers and Subsidies!”.


FINSUM: It would be absolutely amazing to go from an escalating trade war to a US-EU free trade panacea. It seems unlikely to happen, but it could be a positive sign of collaboration.
