If it were true that Trump lost all negotiating leverage, China wouldn't have also caved.  Expect a deal within the next 90 days.

90-day deal is 2018 déjà vu. No deal then, none now. China knows bluster isn’t leverage.

More inconvenient news that @BillsFanNC and @B-Man desperately need you to ignore because their whole fantasy world collapses the moment reality so much as knocks. Their false sense of security isn’t just a coping mechanism; it’s the whole damn scaffolding.
