That impact being China’s economy would suffer while ours is still doing great?

Maybe Trump is doing what is right for the country even though it might hurt his prospects for winning in 2020. Remember that Trump doesn’t need the job.

Sounds like he was more afraid of losing wealthy Chinese tourists dropping a load at his casino.

Mr. Adelson is chairman and chief executive of Las Vegas Sands Corp. The casino company has been operating in the Chinese territory of Macau since 2002 and now derives most of its income from there. In 2018, Macau accounted for nearly $9 billion, or roughly 63%, of Las Vegas Sands’ revenue. Chinese state media have warned that American companies could pay a price in an unfettered conflict

He should just shut up, he can lose a few million or elect Sanders and lose his billion.

The GM strike is going to have a big impact on the economic numbers, and Dems will use that against Trump.

It is no coincidence that only a small group, the Janitors, connected to SEIU, is actually on strike.

Adeldick better watch his step.

I don’t care how rich he is. His piggy bank in Macau is not important to Americans.

So he can choose which side he’s on.

And he better stop right now with the veiled threats to our President.

Sheldon Adelson.....the wealthiest man in Nevada worth north of $30 Billion, and still clueless.

What are we supposed to do, continue with $500 billion + trade deficits forever while the communist Chinese build up their military?

The trade war has been going on for years. But until Donald Trump came on the scene, only the Chinese were fighting.

Mr. Adelson, your casino business is about as important for the economic health and well-being of our nation as child pornography is.

Shut the f#%& up and get out of the way. MAGA.

triggered a telephone call from Sheldon Adelson, who warned the president about the conflict’s impact on the U.S. economy and Mr. Trump’s re-election prospects,

And who was likely 90% wrong.

“...according to people familiar with the call...”

More anonymous sources.

Well I guess Trump addressed that in his UN speech today. As Steve Bannon said, “Honey Badger don’t quit.”

Ever since the trade war began, I haven’t been able to get...

I’m not sure. I’m trying to think of what I haven’t been able to get. Walmart’s shelves seem to be well stocked, and I haven’t noticed any prices on widgets going up.
