It wasn't until all this kicked off that I learned just how many companies that I thought were European were in fact owned by American conglomerates.

Which makes MAGA's "the world is taking advantage of America" rhetoric all the more infuriatingly hypocritical. You spent decades using the strong dollar to go on a massive global shopping trip buying up every other country's companies, and are now crying foul that those companies you own are supplying their local markets instead of importing from the US?
