As usual, apart from making things up, you have no idea what you’re talking about. ASEAN is a bigger trading partner to China than the U.S.

 

There won’t be any winners in such a trade war but one side will end up the bigger loser. Only the really dumb will think that is China.

I guess time will tell huh... There is no way China can make up 580 billion dollars in trade within Asean..

Trump trade deals are examples of Trumps America first policies and huge wins for the US. Don't let your hatred and Trump butt-hurt cloud your already sheer ignorance of the Trump WINNING effect. You hate Trump and you really hate when he scores a monumental win for America. You and your loser liberal Trump haters need help and it ain't coming from the feckless democrats. LOL.

Try not to let your ignorance overemphasize consumer costs without acknowledging potential benefits like job creation or manufacturing growth, supported by studies showing tariffs reshored industries in Trump’s first term. You are trending with "I (Tug) got NOTHING, except behavior shaping Trump hatred. Too bad your hero, Biden, you know that demented guy too mentally unfit to face espionage indictment for selling classified information failed so miserably. Don't worry, Trump's only 109 days in now, with about 1352 days remaining. You have a lot of Trumps WINNING to look forward to or, perhaps just more hatred and butt-hurt. Your call....LOL.

How about this....is this WINNING for America!

 

Or, do you prefer Biden and his chronic unparalleled failures and destruction (Including gov't waste, fraud & abuse) he reigned on America?

What the Chinese are coming to negotiate? Really?

 

I thought the Nevertrumpers said China doesn't need the US and would refuse to negotiate?

 

So you got it all wrong again? And I was right yet again?

 

So much winning....

 

 

I guess you missed the part about this meeting us for de-escalation talks not a trade deal? 

 

Not sure where you get your facts  ut you do like to put a trumpist twist on them dont you?

Trump is getting some good results 100 days in. Could be worse, a LOT WORSE as was the case with biden and his fake, deceptive jobs reports.

Stocks Rise as Trump Says ‘Buy’ Before China Talks

I guess you won't be buying then, Dan?

 

Lol

I see this thread has descended into the usual infantility. But but but... Biden... when things aren't looking too good and then blame the other side for your own infantile remarks.

It's like the Trumpettes cannot have a discussion with regard the facts on the ground. Cannot discuss anything without abuse.

 

Right now it's just de-escalation talks. But the Trumpettes treat it like a football match and claim everything as a win. It's beyond pathetic. They need a good dose of reality, as opposed to this ridiculous hyperbole and abuse in every thread they inhabit.

What does Trump talking about stocks have to do with this topic about deescalating the hostilities with china? You have no valid response.

 

When you cant answer you change the subject to something different. Typical nonsense that you and the cultist always post.   

 

Will I buy, no need to, Im invested in more profitable assets without the risk Trump brings to the market.  If you want to chase stocks based on what a failure in multiple industries recommends you go right ahead.

Try not to be too hard on the boy.

So far there is talk of the U.S.A. adjusting their "unsustainable" tariffs to something like 54%. Otherwise there will be no orders leaving the ports for the U.S.A, the shelves will stay empty and the retailers will be angry. Perhaps one of the Trumpettes can explain the 'win' to us mere mortals.

Neither side clearly needs the other more—it’s a stalemate. The U.S. faces higher prices and supply chain chaos without China, while China risks job losses and economic contraction without U.S. market access. China’s trade diversification and political resilience give it an edge in enduring pain, but the U.S.’s consumer market is a bigger stick than China’s export reliance.

China can and will endure the pain. The US can't. Americans are way too soft. Empty shelves equals sacrifice. Not gonna happen. China has the stronger cards and they know it. They could crush Trump and the US. He will likely cave in.
