The other reason for the delay in posting was to see how this played out. There is a very interesting quote from the Europeans today:

https://www.cnn.com/politics/l...

The European Union is “ready to negotiate” with the United States and has offered to scrap tariffs on industrial goods, Ursula Von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, said Monday.

Okay. Here's the interesting part:

“Nonetheless, we stand ready to negotiate with the United States. Indeed, we have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods, as we have successfully done with many other trading partners, because Europe is always ready for a good deal,” she said.

So other people have gotten this deal...just not us. Okay, Europe.
