“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”
You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.
America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.
I don’t know if it helps anyone, but you don’t need eggs to survive
Most of my cookie recipes use eggs!
What does it look like when one of the world’s superpowers can’t even ensure they can provide such a basic thing as eggs to their citizens.
If it was any other country at any other time, I doubt this would even hit the news. But it’s the US after refusing vaccinations, losing a bunch of stock to a disease, all whilst claiming the egg prices will be lowered, so here we are.
Air delivered eggs from another continent, surely they’re going to be cheap. If only there were at least two neighboring countries that could be able to send them for cheaper…
Why would anyone want to help ?
Unfortunately they have totally unpreventable tariffs right now. I said totally unavoidable. No way to prevent it.
Very sad, very sad
That would increase the prices in the exporting countries. It’s not as if there’s such a huge surfeit that they’re being destroyed.
Citizen of the United States here. Don’t. Assume whatever this orange anal fistula offers to pay will in fact not be paid. Assume whatever agreement brokered will immediately be ignored or violated. Assume this pus filled clementine will still try to “take” Greenland.
Let this shithole 3rd world country burn. It asked for fascism in the form of egg prices, let them deal with their egg prices.
As a Canadian, the US can have my eggs on the condition of the delivery method being lobbing them over the border at official government buildings.
Also a Yank. At this point we really do deserve the punishment. I just hope that when we get a new administration in a little less than four years the world has a shred of sympathy for us.
At the moment, you definitely do. Most of you, and not just Trump voters. Why are you guys so fucking passive? Where are the millions of people protesting on the streets? Where’s the civil disobedience? The strikes? With the attitude the Americans show currently, there will be no elections in 4 years, hell, there might not even be mid-term elections in 2
Unfortunately Europe can’t wait four years for the US to start taking their responsibilities on the world stage seriously again. Russia will almost certainly move within that time, so Europe is now having to build up its defenses in a way that they’ve never previously had to do since the 1940s. Assuming the US does come around (that is a big “if”) by that point Europe will have already got used to using its own military. The US will no longer be required.
I really don’t see any way that things can now go back to the way they were. Trade will, but I think the days of cooperative military action are over. If you guys get embroiled in another pointless war in the Middle East, I think you’re going to have to do that on your own.
It will only take two years if people actually fucking vote in the midterms. But midterm turnout is historically… Well… Complete dogshit. And republicans are statistically more likely to vote in midterms.
That’s why Trump is moving so fast to try and secure things; He doesn’t truly have four years to cement himself as god-emperor. He only has two before he potentially loses his majority in congress. So he has to be crowned before then.
But even with that being said, I don’t have high hopes. As I said before, republicans are more likely to vote in midterms. Maybe Trump’s antics will be enough to get some blue voters off of their asses. But at this point, I’m not holding my breath.
They rigged the election through gerrymandering. They have had this planned for a long time. We are not playing the same game anymore.
I don’t believe you. Or you’re not a stake holder anywhere. I have children. Wishing for things to get get worse is fucking stupid.
He said he wishes for things to get better, though.
I’m a US citizen and I agree with them 100%. A bunch of us tried to tell everyone that Trump was a fascist dumpster fire that would try to make himself king, trash the economy and violate everyone’s civil and human rights. A bunch of ding dongs voted for him anyway. Now he’s making outlandish and insulting demands of our allies, fucking up trade and markets (along with abusing the civil and human rights of some protesters, asylum seekers and random travelers, oh, and throwing Ukraine under the bus and encouraging a fucking measles outbreak). So yeah, I don’t want my house and retirement savings to go into the shitter if the country goes full Nazi and I have to flee with nothing. So maybe if some folks have to do without eggs and cheap imports for a while they just might maybe learn that we need to pull the US out of this tailspin before it’s too late. Some fucking people just will not listen when you tell them the stove is hot. So now we all suffer while they touch the red hot burner and go “Duho, that hurts!”
Well, well, well… if it isn’t the consequences of your own actions
as an American
Yah, we’re going to need you to go fuck yourself.
It’s a weird feeling, being what feels like a sane person in an insane country run by insane people. Hearing people tell us to go fuck ourselves when we probably agree with everything they are saying. And really not even blaming them for feeling that way based on the absolute lunatics in charge and how they behave.
America, Fuck You Asshole!
No - Bugs Bunny.
This is a joke right? Something from the Onion? Why would any country help out Trump now?
Ask Turkiye.
Friends! Canadians! Countries of unfamiliar spellings! Lend me your eggs!
But don’t send me your poor people. … Unless they are carrying eggs. Then let them come… we’ll keep the eggs and send the people back.
I thought the US didn’t need anything from anyone else? Isn’t that what you said?
“You will become part of the US.”
two days later…
“Bro my egg prices are high, can you help a brotha out?”
I would love to see NATO countries (besides the US) band together and say:
”We will come together to support our great ally, so long as she saves herself. Upon the acceptance of President Trump’s and Vice President Vance’s resignation, we will provide the aid that our friend needs."
Trump could, in fact, be the hero here. He could walk away from the presidency with a win. For added measure, these countries could write lofty and wonderful articles about Trump’s selflessness.
We know he won’t.
Aside: I’m not saying Mike Johnson would make a good president. But let’s take this one thing at a time.
Honestly, I love this idea. Why aren’t America’s former allies calling for the resignation of Trump and Vance? Let the American people know that if they want cheaper eggs, and better trade deals, they’re going to have to find a way to get rid of these traitors who have seized power.
“On this trade war that HE started…”
Ok… but then it’d be truth for once 😅
I’m not saying we should…
But negative tariffs on eggs coming out of the USA and ridiculous tariffs on eggs going into the USA would tickle my funny bone
OMG yes, have canada subsidize imports of american eggs. that would make me so fucking hot. I’d be out a lot of baked goods for a while, but cannot make myself care. I’ll learn to bake vegan or something.
Hear me out - apply a tariff from EU to Canada on eggs (stay with me). Apply a tariff 2X that tariff to the US on eggs imported from Canada. Something something, profit
We’d be helping their industry recover from fuck ups, no thanks
