I read in the papers today that Trump has been railing against the EU and Germany in particular. His main complaint was that the Euro is undervalued and thus unfairly supporting German exports to the USA.

You may recall that I carefully explained how Germany engineered the value of the Euro to enable exactly what Trump is complaining about.

This could now work in our favour - if you support reaching a deal with the EU. Germany could hardly relish having to face tariffs levied by the UK and additional tariffs levied by the USA as this would hit their production as exports fall.

Properly exploited, a sensible deal may yet be possible.
