Denmark better fucking not.
I'm in the US. Put the fucking pressure on us. Buy literally anything else but American products. Our conservatives need to learn exactly how bad "America First" is, and you can't do that when you sell out.
It kind of depends on how long the American shortage goes for. If they can't get their supply chains in order for a year or so, making a deal could later prove good leverage material against the Americans. Get them hooked on cheap European eggs, then threaten to tariff them or cut off the supply, making prices soar all across the USA.
NO THERE WILL BE NO LEVERAGE GAINED. YOU DONT KNOW HOW TRUMP OPPERATES. They will not honor ANY agreements or deal. LET US STARVE.
Sorry but Trump said recently that Europe has been created to piss off the USA. Since he knows better and since they consider it’s ok to have millions of chickens shitting on each other in their industries, we should let that great president handle that crisis himself. And keep our stock of eggs so that the price do not increase here. He can ask his friend Putin for cheap eggs.
as an american, we're dying right now. don't gamble this long term shit. we need immediate consequences to fascism. you undermine the sane with these gambits
It is deeper than supply chains, and unlikely to get under control. It is the core management philosophy that is at fault.
The reason they are asking Denmark is that Canada, and likely Mexico, wanted a deal on it, Trump wants it for free.
The problem is farm size. In Canada, egg farms will be in the range of 30k-100k birds. In the US, the farms are in the millions of birds. Canada does not have the issue the US has because smaller farms are more localized and have stricter regulations.
