Trade talks?

Trade talks? Schmade talks. Kelly McParland nails it.
“Better to walk away, let the White House do its worst and deal with the consequences. That will inevitably be the result under this administration in any case. Whatever piece of paper negotiators wave should a last-minute “deal” be reached won’t be worth the ink wasted on the signatures. As long as Trump is president the U.S. can’t be trusted to keep its word. A quick-fix tariff accord could be signed at breakfast and broken before lunch.
Until its leadership changes, any agreement with the U.S. is a recipe for ongoing uncertainty. Even if Republicans suffer defeat in November’s mid-term elections, the president’s ability to sow confusion will remain considerable until 2028, and likely longer given the time it would take to re-establish America’s reputation as a reliable country.”

https://www.europesays.com/canada/170777/the EU signed a "deal", now the US is after the EU again with the transshipment "conspiracy" and hoping the EU bends the knee.
No deal, is still better than *any* "deal" with the US right now.
the US continues to believe supply chains can turn on a dime, and that manufacturing wont take a minimum of 18 months to build a factory, never mind get it running, and that everything will be OK
