The United States could slap new tariffs on French cheese and sparkling wine

New York US trade officials proposed a wave of tariffs on French goods Monday as they released a report finding that a new French tax on digital services — affecting large American tech companies such as Facebook and Google — represents a barrier to trade.

The list of proposed US tariffs covers dozens of products, including cheeses, beauty products, handbags, sparkling wine and porcelainware.Roughly $2.4 billion in French products could be subject to new taxes of up to 100%, the office of the United States Trade Representative said. The public will have until early January to weigh in on the proposal.

It wasnt us trade officials it was trump, trump did it

Well, now we know what Trump and Zuckenburg discussed at the White House meeting and why FB is allowing all of Trumps fake ads! It’s disgusting!

Facebook was evil yesterday for allowing ads. Today they are good because Trump is going to tax them. I can’t keep up

The tariff wars from hell, just sad that the American People ultimately will pay and suffer for all these Tariff Wars.

Nobody believes the CNN spin anymore.

The rich are going to unhappy!

These services should be taxed. The US touts it’s goods trade deficits but Canada has a huge service deficit with the US. I imagine France is the same.
