IDK. There’ll have to be big actions before Fall.

“It’s all about the president being able to say he got a deal. He never cared as much as some thought about the structural stuff.”

Sounds like the USMCA.

This from a paper that at no time saw any problems whatsoever with China and trade.

Uh oh, my fav China hand:

Kim Jong Balding‏ @BaldingsWorld · 5h5 hours ago

I can say with zero hesitation: there is as much chance of China agreeing to and enforcing this as Xi calling free and fair elections before market open

He opted to delay the 25% tariffs to give China a chance to be civil w/o the extra nipple twisting...he will do it if they opt to try to hedge.

More-on Josh Rogin...

Rogin was accused of sneaking into a private meeting and recording private statements
made by Secretary of State John Kerry who posited that Israel could become an “apartheid state.”
Invitees had all previously agreed that they would not record or report on speakers’ remarks without permission.
Rogin posted an article on the Daily Beast which forced Kerry to issue a letter of apology to Jewish and Israeli leaders.
Rogin defended his actions stating that he was not in attendance at the meeting;
and that he received the information from a recording.
He later admitted that he made the recording himself.
