Would somebody please buy this fool a vowel? China has been in a trade war with us for over 30 years.

"It is that he believes we are already in a trade war, one that the Chinese are waging against us. And it's not that he wants to retaliate — it's that he wants to win," the "Mad Money" host said.

Cramer is right about DJT and DJT is right about China.

We are and have been for the past 40 years.

These people really do live in a bubble.

I think Cramer is okay here.

However, this did give me a chuckle:
“Cramer believes the Chinese wouldn’t have seized a U.S. drone before the election of Trump. It seems as though the Chinese don’t know how to handle him, aside from calling Trump names in its state-run newspapers.”

Listen, Chucklehead: The Chinese probably wouldn’t have:

They forced our EP-3E down in 2001 and held our men hostage for 9 days.

To ensure we saw the exclamation Mark they intended to deliver, they handed our plane back in pieces.

Stole our drone in 2016, kept it for a few days, to see what’s inside.

In 2016 they intercepted a U.S. Air Force RC-135 twice.

They made Obama wait on the Tarmac and refused to provide a ladder of steps to the plane, a standard gesture of hospitality at the least , forced the President of the United States of America to exit the rear of the plane

While they pulled this act of aggression toward AF1, they were engaged in another international incident, refusing to let our press pull cover the the president from standard views.

They have had their warships intercept ours in international waters and lock their “Fore Control “ on to one or more of our ships.

Once again, they challenged our ships the Cowpens and Impeccable, in one instance the Chinese even maneuvered a boat directly into the path of the Cowpens, with only 500 yards between them, forcing the Cowpens to take avoidance actions.

In 2015 and once again in international waters the Chinese targeted one our submarines.

So, the fact is we have been in a trade war for at least two decades and minor military skirmishes as well.

China is a Frenemy.

Can someone explain that to the AFL-CIO, the EPA, EEOC, OSHA and the “When in doubt, raise taxes” crowd in Congress, Academia & the Press?

“Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door.”

Tariffs and protectionism are not the answer.

I watched the entire clip and Cramer is conflicted. He doesn't know what Trump will do about trade with china and it makes him nervous.

What makes him really worry, is that Trump doesn't worship at the alter of globuuulism but instead wants to put America First.

Jim Cramer is an over hyped ass.

The difference between extreme competition and a mild trade war are semantics. He sells crap and the crappier the better
