China will violate every bit of this, at every point they can. They are 100% untrustworthy and our enemy.

Trump just flipped the coin in the Army Navy game. Wearing MAGA red hat ...in the rain.

[Telepathic Intruder]

I heard someone say that someone else said he thinks he heard Trump say “I’ll sign the deal if you vote for me”.

[Sirius Lee]

Watching. Still not tired of winning

[RummyChick]

He signed some kind of order allowing these men to go on and play NFL. I am sure some of those Navy people will be drafted.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Nice to know he is at the Armny Navy Game.

I assume he was not booed?

[RummyChick]

not booed. don’t know how loud the response was for Obama.

It was raining so between walking in and flipping the coin he put on his MAGA hat..which of course the left is knocking him for advertising his campaign.

Everything you said is correct, but you left something off.

Trump will beat them into submission again, and this time with REAL tariffs.

[Carriage Hill]

He will; you’re right.

But the Chinese, like the muslims(SPIT!) take the l-o-n-g view of things, and can/will outwait America. In time — enough time — it’ll be back to them abusing us and negating any treaties, tariffs or whatever agreements we make within Trump’s years, and the following presidents. We like things to happen fast and last, but that isn’t always the case.

And Trump will bring out the “crippling tariffs”.
China was long awarded “most favored status” with no requirements for being trustworthy...sometimes long-spoiled brats need a few examples of consequential reactions before they fully grasp the message.

[Carriage Hill]

Amen to that.
