My take on today is that Trump did a classic dirty martial arts move. He kicked them in the balls and took his penalty point (market drop). Then the rest of the fight the opponent is doubled over in pain and way off his game. I love how he does that.
In the end, I think he will break China for the sole reason that makes the USA great. We can react when needed because the economy is filled with independent entities that are all doing what is best for themselves. That in turn makes the country strong. Countries like China that use central controls can’t keep up. As long as Trump keeps them off balance, they can’t counter.
I would love to have something akin to a war scrap drive where
we dump all our Chinese junk (pun intended) and replace
it with American made stuff. (I bet if we melted just the metal down it’d
be loaded with impurities and carcinogens) Problem is, right now much of
our stuff is hard or impossible to replace, even household items
I just bought 2 new A/C and I was appalled that I could not
get a made in USA unit from such well known companies whose name start with F
But it aint Trump taking the penalty. The market represents the savings and retirement of millions of Americans and no POTUS has a right to play with that. And he has backed off every threat or action he has made to China. And regarding Hong Kong, he has been as acquiescent to China as Barky was to Iran during their demonstrations. If he keeps this nonsense up we are goingvto have a damn marxist SJW in the White House
You said what I was thinking but put it far better than I could have. Bullseye!
