I hope they can close it. I can agree with you that it is important but it is a loss only in comparison to what we hope it to be. As of today, we are already ahead.

Nothing he will do besides this will be anything by comparison. He tackled an issue that his predecessor had neither the balls nor the economic position to tackle. I hope he can can close it and think he will. But the fat lady isn’t singing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeginnersMind Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) China will stick to it if it’s a good deal. If not, they won’t. Trump gets the issue. It remains to be seen if he closes on it. He has the same issue in NK. And with Iran. So far we have talks, which is good, but mean little without closure and adherence (and with all these parties a mechanism to measure adherence).

Tiberius Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Idiot Quote Their is no reason for the U.S. Consumer to pay the Tariffs, which take effect on China today. This has been proven recently when only 4 points were paid by the U.S., 21 points by China because China subsidizes product to such a large degree. Also, the Tariffs can be..... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 13, 2019 ..There will be nobody left in China to do business with. Very bad for China, very good for USA! But China has taken so advantage of the U.S. for so many years, that they are way ahead (Our Presidents did not do the job). Therefore, China should not retaliate-will only get worse! — Donald J.

Thanks Donald! Barrack Obama slow jammed with Jimmy Fallon, personally imagined hundreds of thousands of jobs coming 9-10 years after he was elected, and set the stage for business leaders to acknowledge Trump's role in deregulation and tax cuts for middle class Americans. He rightly should take credit for the Chinese tariff blow back and rest assured it IS part of His master plan. I'm boycotting Ho Lee Fuk's Chinese Emporium as payback. HELL NO TO GENERAL TSO!

Tiberius Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Aide instead of trade! Welfare Quote CHICAGO/WASHINGTON — U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said on Friday that President Donald Trump had asked him to create a plan to help American farmers cope with the heavy impact of the U.S.-China trade war on agriculture. A new aid program would be the second round of assistance for farmers, after the Department of Agriculture's $12 billion plan last year to compensate for lower prices for farm goods and lost sales stemming from trade disputes with China and other nations. https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2019/05/10/business/10reuters-usa-trade-china-farmers.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
