Was the EU formed to hurt the US as Trump claims?

Trump just wants to be the mafia boss and for everyone to pay to the U.S.

The USA is now a global laughing stock, because of Trump. And because Americans allow this farce to continue, the world has to move on.

Trump thinks that the global economy is a zero sum game — you get something, I lose.

Why am I not losing weight despite eating 1500 calories daily? Male 24y 161kg 174cm and obese. My calorie tracking is on point, I mostly eat prepackaged food and occasionally cook for myself measuring only the raw ingredients, yes including the oil.

This is what Trump is calling, “everyone is ripping us off” — the fact that other countries gave the U.S. their goods in exchange to green paper (well, by now it’s only zeroes and ones in the computer code). In exchange to real cars, real iPhones, real wine, real steel, real consumer goods. The countries just got back the U.S. dollars.

The European Union was formed to make the countries of Europe prosper. The EU wasn’t formed “to hurt the U.S.”

While the global economy is about everyone winning.

Looks like Trump thinks that anything any country is doing to become prosperous and strong is meant “to hurt the U.S.”

Countries were already doing that, by giving the U.S. their goods and products, and getting nothing in return — except the green banknotes, in other words, were giving massive assistance to the U.S. (that’s how the U.S. became so rich), but now Trump wants the countries — after they gave the U.S. their goods — to give the Americans back the green banknotes.

And he is furious the other countries are not giving into his global bullying.

Can’t just hang around, waiting for the Americans to sort themselves out.

Trump made his money by ripping off contractors — he confessed himself, and now he’s trying to do the same trick with all the countries in the world (except Russia and North Korea — Trump has no issues with Putin and Kim).
