????After reporting on "the EU admits it is unable to fulfill its commitment to invest $60 billion in the US economy," Politico reported again:
????"The EU promised to purchase $75 billion worth of US oil and gas before Donald Trump's term ends, experts say that achieving this goal is almost impossible due to limited US supply, technical barriers, and the EU's weak power in import agreements."
????After reports that the EU was playing Trump like Japan (the EU admitted it was unable to fulfill its commitment to invest $60 billion in the US economy, as these funds would come entirely from private sector investments, which Brussels has no jurisdiction over), Lutnick started to backtrack:
????Byer: "Does the EU guarantee to invest an additional $60 billion in the US?"
????Lutnick: "The president said at the time, if we lower tariffs, how do I know your companies will invest? So the EU gathered all the companies that made commitments to it, and these commitments can be handed over to President Trump..."
????Byer: "If the money comes from the private sector, it cannot be considered part of the trade framework, but they said they would do it, right?"
????Are the companies' commitments considered investments? How long have the Stargate people been misleading Trump?
