If you think China and the US aren't talking now, how did China just ask the US to put together a trade delegation with authority to negotiate the trade deal?

 

How did they ask this of the US if China and the US aren't talking, pray tell?

Tarriff talks are just another Trump lie... 

 

[Cameroni]

A senior administration official told NBC News on Wednesday that the U.S. is speaking with China on tariffs

C'mon, man!  I know you don't like to read the text of the articles you link to, but could you please, just please, read the dang headlines?

 

Trump says the U.S. and China are 'actively' discussing tariffs. Beijing says that's false.

While Trump said Wednesday that the world’s two largest economies are “actively” talking, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson responded that “China and the U.S. have not engaged in any consultations or negotiations regarding tariffs, let alone reached an agreement.”

 

Oh, and don't miss this part!

 

Still, Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave conflicting accounts of the state of negotiations Wednesday, with Bessent saying “both sides are waiting to speak to the other,” without providing further detail. The secretary reiterated remarks he made the previous day, predicting near-term de-escalation.

If the Chinese really were holding talks with the USA they would say nothing. They wouldn't be saying this:

 

China says there are no negotiations with the US over tariffs

China on Thursday denied U.S. President Donald Trump’s assertion that the two sides were involved in active negotiations over tariffs, saying that any suggestion of progress in this matter was as groundless as “trying to catch the wind.”....

“China’s position is consistent and we are open to consultations and dialogues, but any form of consultations and negotiations must be conducted on the basis of mutual respect and in an equal manner,” said Ministry of Commerce spokesman He Yadong. “Any claims about the progress of China-U.S. trade negotiations are groundless as trying to catch the wind and have no factual basis.”

This is the kind of language used to humiliate an opponent. I think China's goal is to humiliate Trump.

So trump is lying.  Is anyone surprised?

 

China says there are no negotiations with the US over tariffs

 

China on Thursday denied U.S. President Donald Trump’s assertion that the two sides were involved in active negotiations over tariffs, saying that any suggestion of progress in this matter was as groundless as “trying to catch the wind.”

 

Trump had told reporters earlier in the week that “everything’s active” when asked if he was engaging with China, although his Treasury Secretary had said there were no formal negotiations.

  Wow, that won't take much effort.  Trump is accomplishing 99% of that goal on his own.

 

  I wonder what will happen when he finally realizes he's the laughingstock of the planet.

Oh dear oh dear, poor Cameroni has really been shown up in the replies. Imagine posting a link to an article that actually says the opposite of what you claim because you haven't bothered to read it.

What an own goal, but don't worry, you are not the first MAGA to link to something you haven't read and I doubt you'll be the last. Headlines are all we need, right?
