Trump's "record" XX% tariff deal announced today is just a $235B/year trade deficit with extra steps - Americans now pay a new tax on 532B euros of EU imports. The admin's "reciprocal" math: Europe invests $750B *after* we threatened their auto industry with XX% tariffs.  

This 11th-hour deal repeats April's TACO pattern: bluster XX% tariffs → panic markets → settle for XX% + claim victory. US businesses lost $1.2B in contracts during the 90-day "will they/won't they" chaos. Existing XX% steel tariffs remain untouched, proving this isn't strategy - it's reality TV tradecraft.  

When every "deal" starts by pointing guns at allies, you're not winning - you're bankrupting trust.
