From the day Britain left the EU, this reset was inevitable. What a pointless waste of time, money and effort

I hated Brexit when it happened and I hate it still. I knew exactly what would happen to the UK the moment it was brought to my attention, and couldn't believe it even managed to pass.

I forgot how easy it is to rile up people for a cause they're ignorant on by simply lying to their faces. It's much easier to shout along with some fucking twat screaming about how "immigrants are bad!" than it is to sit down and actually read anything established economists are publishing about the matter.

It was a complete waste of time the moment the notion was even brought up, and the regret was inevitable.

The USA was always broken

I don't know if it's because I'm British, but I always assumed that America is the way it is because we shipped a bunch of over-zealous loons over there that we didn't really want here.

Part of me isn't surprised as to how things are turning out.

Trump adds Europe to the list of US trade partners he's threatening with tariffs

Probably influenced by the enormous amount of money oil barons spent on him, of which they almost certainly did with an expectation of return on investment.

His desire to "Drill baby drill!" and relax restrictions on oil drilling—including drilling into a wilderness reserve previously uninterrupted by man—and his apparent distaste for EVs and green energy, makes it pretty obvious whose hand has firmly lodged itself right up his arsehole.

The man needs oil to sell to please his owners, and belligerently trying to force the EU to increase their purchases is just another one of his hare-brained schemes.
