KEYS OF THE DAY: Trump saves the blow, the scare of Taco Trade and Surrealism in European elites
President Donald Trump explained in Truth Social the process of pause and blocking tariffs. Trump has reflected on the damage that judges have done with the blockade to the US, complicating the negotiations of the rest of the countries with Trump about tariffs. “It's simply hate to Trump,” has been Donald Trump's message. And he recalled that with the decision of the court, the US economy would be seriously damaged.
The White House has celebrated the suspension as a great victory announcing that it will take the case to the Supreme Court, qualifying the decision of the “Judicial Sounding” court. Now, while the suspension is in force, the US can continue to apply tariffs, even if the future Trump tariff is in doubt. The investor begins to worry about a complicated photograph of possible tariff block.
King Felipe VI of Spain gave Von der Leyen award. Where he talked about European unity, when what the president of Europe is really doing is just the opposite. The recognition of von der Leyen seems to ignore the disconnection between institutions and those who live their consequences. The president of the Commission has been outside the key negotiation tables in the Ukraine War, and her silence before the Israeli offensive over Gaza reinforces the idea of an irrelevant Europe on the international board. There is no visible leadership, only speeches loaded with good intentions while diplomatic errors multiply.
Europe is not being a guide of anything. He has regulated artificial intelligence really anything: legislation designed more for the cover than for content. It acts late in the face of inflation, censorship is applied disguised as modern norms, and the digital euro is imposed without a real debate on freedoms. Meanwhile, von der is celebrated as a symbol of that course. A course that does not excite, that does not integrate, that does not excite. Which rewards who represents the continuity of a model that has lost strength and legitimacy. Who has the draghi plan in a drawer. To whom it promotes social control mechanisms in the name of progress.
