    good point, but that's just too nuanced for the Red Rocket

    Another flaccid attemp at deflection. Just admit you were wrong or I can keep schooling you.

    Again... you claimed the EU only responds to threats. This is nonsense. Try again.

    I backed it up, you rejected. How is the UK getting along on Brexit without threats? Nowhere. How did Trump get along with threats, instant ass kissing. How did Greece do? Perpetual debt and insolvency.

    I told fchowd the common market was started by the EEC, you spurted out the Euro is what their currency is called. You think the EEC still exists. You've had no facts. Nothing. Vapid.

    The topic is international trade and you brought up issue relating to domestic debt issues between member states and the regulatory body. Issues that were caused member states through their own faults.

    THEN. We measured FTA lengths and nothing came of it. The EU and Japan just recently signed a huge FTA, where was the threats as you claim?

    Another domestic issue between the regulatory body the EU and its soon to be former member state.

    Greece's financial issues are of their own making. You seem to have an issue with personal responsibility and blaming others.

    And all you got is flaccid gotchas trying to play semantics games while moving the goal posts. This is the third time you've brought the ship back around trying desperately to not admit you were wrong.

    nothing came of it because you just listed FTAs that take longer. ie proving my point

    There you go with domestic again. LMAO look that word up m8

    The UK is already a former member. Once they triggered article 50 they have no ability to decide on matters past march 2019. It is also irreversible per the high court. Lern moar

    I wasn't wrong about anything. PRC bot adoo and you on the other hand have shown a massive misunderstanding about how the EU works lol

    You just have no info and have resorted to this

    Bless your heart..... go reread that conversation. I'm tired of repeating myself with you.

    Go on....

    Semantics. I'd say they become a former member as soon as they are past the date or fully negotiate before then.

    Not all at, you are just playing little semantics games in order to deflect. It's painfully obvious. Flaccid.

    wrong again breh. No negotiation changes anything before the date. that's the point of article 50

    On your ignoramus use of the word domestic, UK is domestic even though they are not in the euro or schengen? what about norway? what about canada? what about Canada plus plus plus? All "domestic" ? lol

    The number of facts you have blatantly got wrong here are mounting

    I think you are tired of repeating because you haven't said anything. typically you provide counter examples or have an actual argument in discussions. This.....this is nothing.

    Interesting you only quote this part and leave out the rest.... Further flaccidness.

    I've already answered this, you just keeping running in circles. Domestic/internal in this context is between the EU regulatory body and it's members. Much like domestic issues within the Pacific Rim are within countries inside the Pacific Rim.

    Again.... you claimed the EU only responds to threats. You are using deflections because you know your claim was hyperbole.

    I replied to what you posted before editing in some type of insult because you have no argument and no facts.

    You on the other hand are not replying which nation states are domestic, and what relationship constitutes domestic in the EU.

    The most insane thing you have posted is conceding the EU only responded to Greece's threats but not nations outside the EU. This specifically is saying the EU treats its member states like crap but everyone else much better. LOL

    Flaccid.

    What does that have to do with imposing tariffs on the EU based on national security? What does that have to do with the EU only responding to the threats in the context of international trade?


    It's insane the lengths you are going to deflect because of your flaccid arguments.

    LOL. Now we are moving the goalposts to the EU treats member states like crap!! Did the EU tell the Greeks and Italians to rack up all the debt by spending too much and not collecting enough revenue? It's the EU's fault Greece and Italy mismanaged their countries' finances, that's your new argument?

    It's weird yo don't know anything about the EU, you continue to argue and when exposed resort to personal attacks. As per lusual for lefties on this board when they fail. My question always is, if you don't know anything about the EU (you don't) why argue about it?
