U.S. — President Trump has reportedly finalized a new trade deal with the United Kingdom, securing a 15% tariff on the extra "U" in British words.
"I guess you could say this is my favourite trade deal," Trump said, explicitly using the British form of favorite. "And England's shown a lot of honour, a lot of honour. Colour me impressed."
According to sources, the U.S. will now collect a fee every time someone uses a word with an unnecessary "U" in it. This is expected to have vast repercussions across the globe, taking the focus from British English and placing it on American English where it belongs.
