Latest ZEW numbers show Germany's economy tanking: 7.4 points, down from 13.1, meanwhile current conditions at a catastrophic -91.4. But wait, there's more! The entire EU's expectations collapsed from 20 to 12.5 points. But fear not - mainstream media already found our convenient scapegoat: Trump! Because obviously, it can't be the tsunami of regulations, taxes and infantile climate policy flooding businesses from Brussels and Berlin
Here's a modest proposal: Why not copy China's brilliant 5-year plan system? Just decree 5% growth - problem solved! And while we're at it, let's add MORE regulations, HIGHER taxes, and EXTRA paperwork. Because nothing fixes economic stagnation like strangling the last breath out of private enterprise!
Remember: When your policies fail, just add more policies! 🤡
They will always misdirect their actions or inactions with big news. They dont want to point the finger at themselves.

EU economists: Trump bad because tariffs,
EU at the same time: The EU imposed new tariffs of up to 35 per cent on Chinese EVs, in addition to the existing 10 per cent duty. The new tariffs, effective from October 30th, follow a nearly year-long investigation by the European Commission
What a fucking circus..

I thought the mainstream media might change a little this time round. I was wrong...
