Ever since Tricky Dick Nixon opened the door to China, we have done nothing but give and give, and China has done nothing but take and take.

Time to even the playing field.

I repeat - we are China’s best customer. They need us (our money) more than we need them.

I guess after years of America being subordinated to the UN and other countries, it’s a revolutionary act to regain your status and speak the truth.

I expect the Trump team will be dusting off the history of the 1985 “Plaza Accord” which dealt with Japan currency, devaluing US Dollar by about 50% versus Yen.

Does anyone here remember that at one time, 7 of the 10 largest banks were Japanese?

Same deal as today with China, which has been actively making their currency (Yuan Renminbi) cheaper for the last three years, killing American jobs . . . JUST LIKE TRUMP HAS BEEN SAYING.

The primary leverage to get Japan to go along was implied threat of tariffs. YES, you so-called conservative IDIOTS (like Mark Levin), REAGAN USED this threat. Does anyone doubt he would have followed through if the Japanese refused to comply?

The effects of the Plaza Accord crashed the Nippon stock market by 75% starting in 1989, and led to a deep and lengthy recession in Japan.

Too bad. Same has to happen in China which, as Trump has been saying, has been ripping America blind.

China started it over Taiwan's call to Trump. Certainly China knows the value of "back channels" to keep it out of the newspapers. "Back channels" prevent embarrassment to one or both countries.

China once had subtlety. What did they expect to gain by going public? Good will?

China is either amused, and soberly readying themselves for negotiations that should have come 30 years ago. Or they are terrified, knowing what the U.S. can still do.

Whichever it is, Americans will be the better for it. God bless Donald J. Trump
