Hmm 250 year old US in decline vs 3000 year old China in the ascendency - tricky to call this one !

Nobody can buy meds, these days.

Trump and his fool friends have not only picked a trade war with a bigger bully China , they have  lost the trust of UK, Europe,Canada, Mexico  Australia, Japan , Korea  ,India and many other major  powers  ,, they have  disrespected allies and enemies  equally and trashed the rule of law and diplomacy ,, they have shown  massive ignorance   and soon the bulk of the American people will turn on trump and his fools  with huge anger ......there will be a reckoning  ,  and a reset but it wont be nice  it will be very messy and a lot of Americans are going to suffer ....

 

Actually, the tribalism that makes people so mad about Trump means that when he leaves power, if a Dem is voted in, then everyone will likely forget everything that Trump did, as the Dems have been criticising him from the start.  It will be, "The crazy orange man has gone and now America is back", and everyone will sigh and continue as if nothing has happened.

 

Don't forget, as much as the world might hate Trump and everything he is doing, they do still need the US, or rather the US's money.  If they didn't, no one would be paying him the slightest bit of attention.

There is much, these days, that is very unpredictable.

We shall wait and see what we shall see.

 

The only thing that I will predict is that there will be...NO WINNERS.

 

A declining power and an ascending power, when this transition happens at the same time....equals...

Instability, and very possibly war, according to the rule, as it was written.

We shall see.

I KNOW!!!

 

This is the problem, my friend.

 

Boeing chose to outsource production of these parts to China.

 

THIS was part of the DEAL for an agreement to buy Boeing planes.

And, China learned a heck of a lot from this deal.

 

Or, did you not realize the details of the Boeing China business????????

 

 

I was unable to googles that.

 

Could you link me in the right direction to confirm this?

How are Trump's tariffs harming the US economy?

What? I asked you a question about your claim that China is damaging their economy by not buying Boeing. And you andwered with some weird question about Trump. I know you are obsessed with him but I am not asking about him.

How is China not buying American aircraft damaging the Chinese economy?

China soon will have everything they need to build their own planes or service Boeings if need be . The have nearly all parts of the supply chain in place and Musks factory will be toast if the US is not careful. They don't want this fight but they sure as hell will win it if the US chooses to go down that route.

Well, the point of tariff taxes according to Trump is to force manufacturers, foreign or domestic, to produce in the USA.

 

By Trumpian logic, China banning/tariffing/taxing US aircraft will onshore aviation manufacturing into the Middle Kingdom.

 

MCGA!

About a third from China, half from India.

Anyway, it is not as if China "halted" Boeing aircraft delivery without cause.

The cost of the aircraft went up steeply after China added on 125 percent in import duties...haha....

But, Boeing aircraft sales had already plummeted, for other reasons, before this.

 

These days, Boeing does not sell much to China.

Boeing did a tech transfer to China, and now China will soon produce its own aircraft.

This was totally predictable.

 

Boeing is now full of idiots.

And, the company is sinking, as a result.

 

Maybe this will be a wakeup call for America?

So then....China/India have dominated the market and the slide began in 2000, and completed about 2010.

Wonderful.

If everything seems weird to you, it might be you that has a problem.

What is this common situation which the EU and US share? How should the EU react in the light of the US's imposition of tariffs and anti-European rhetoric and actions? What is this shortsightedness on the European part. What price will we pay?

 

Questions. Questions.

No strategic or tactical preparation for a tariff war with China whatsoever. No stockpiling of crucial materials, ingredients, or components. No preparation lining up alternative sources. Nothing. Just a big yutz in the White House shooting his mouth off and changing the details by the day and the hour. 

 

it's always been clear there is no plan or logic, just pathetic, weak enablers more concerned about themselves than their fellow citizens or country, when is an american, any american, going to stop cow towing to this idiot and stand up and be counted

There are many of us don’t be fooled.as per the thread it’s indeed shocking to see a president start this trade war with no preparation/reserves of strategic  materials planning  ect ect  but that’s trump he’s never been known for deep thinking only chaos and failure…..elections have consequences  he’s hurt a lot of people and countries ugly indeed.

This could backfire on China big time and long term. Both Boeing and Airbus have huge back logs for orders, years out. I heard China might make a jet at some point but if those orders get taken they will be waiting for a decade for planes if anybody will deal with them.

This will ground many aircraft since parts are needed for maintenance.

Also, we need both Boeing and Airbus to stop shipping EVERYTHING to China.

 

How is Trump going to stop Airbus from selling its aircraft to China? You think the French will listen to him?

Good luck getting them certified., It's not just Boeing it is also  Airbus.. Hard time to build planes that won't  fly to the majority of the world.
