There was no EU in the 1920s. All you can compare back then is individual countries.
Europe was in between 2 World Wars. You might recall they didn’t get along together back then.

Look it up. Most economic sources list Western Europe, Middle East, China, USA, and India as the major economic regions of that time.

Europe was not united. You can have your own opinions, but you can’t have your own facts.

"The ongoing trade war President Donald Trump has waged against world powers, including some of our closest allies, doesn't show signs of slowing down.
Left in the fray: Companies, American workers and consumers.
The list of companies affected, either by planning to close plants, laying off employees, tossing out plans for new jobs or raising prices continues to grow."
These companies might close, lay off US workers because of Trump's trade war Click to expand...
There are concerns where I live as well. BMW is the largest exporter of US manufactured automobiles and they have a large plant in SC.

Remember O saying it was the new normal, & the jobs were never coming back, & there was nothing we could do to change it? Trump doing it on his own with little help from his party, the fed, & certainly not the media.

Well, President obama pretty much blamed President Bush all 8 years for the economy, even though he pretty much had all dems running Congrees duruing his time..
President trump figured out what Obama never could, that the US economy gets strong again when we cut taxes and make it more profitable to keep american jobs here, and give incetives to expand US jobs!

The Democrats had the House for only 2 years and the Senate for only 6 years. The Republicans had the House for 6 years and the Senate for 2 years. To say that the Democrats ran Congress all that time is not supported by the facts.

For the first term he had the dems in control, and he did get pretty much his own way 8 years, and just shows that the liberal way of high taxes and govt run economy justs does not work!

We’ll just have to agree to disagree on how large government should be.
