President Trump Building Economic Landscape for 2020…Earlier today President Trump sent a warning tweet about Apple possibly incurring tariffs on their products if they continue a plan for manufacturing in China. Later in the day the president answered direct questions about those possible tariffs.
Additionally, Secretary Wilbur Ross was very insightful when he also spoke of the current U.S. perspective toward the U.S-China trade negotiation. If you have followed the basic road-map of America-First, there’s a very clear picture; however, most pundits and trade analysts will likely ignore the message.
[Apple will not be given Tariff waivers, or relief, for Mac Pro parts that are made in China. Make them in the USA, no Tariffs!]
Subtle as a brick through a window…. yet it’s amazing how many people can’t see it.
Secretary Ross warned the professional investment class that the current objective for Secretary Mnuchin and USTR Lighthizer is to find out if Beijing is willing to re-engage from the starting point where they left-off when talks collapsed. That’s a big tell.
After several phone calls and staff contacts if the U.S. team doesn’t know the answer to that question, well, there’s almost zero likelihood of any optimistic outlook. In essence, the only value within the current engagement is financial ‘optics’ to stabilize markets.
It has been clear -validated by the G20 outcome- that President Trump is not going to accept anything less than a full and complete structural change in the U.S. trade position with China. Lighthizer’s severe compliance and enforcement clauses, specific to each unique trade sector, are non-negotiable.
In the message to Tim Cook (implied tweet and direct oval office commentary) President Trump isn’t warning Tim Apple of the possibility of tariffs, he is specifically telling him to expect them. Beijing is simultaneously receiving the same message

FYI
sold my AAPL a year ago...
PDJT going on offense. Start here in Texas. State office holders all GOP. Commerce Dept now has all Fed database’s of population distribution citizen/legal/illegal.
Texas inundated with illegals, especially Houston. Voter fraud to be fought by limiting supply. Wilbur Ross should publish across TX media relationship of alien % to welfare use, state tax contributed, state and fed benefits used, etc.
TX has GOP house incumbents under siege this cycle. Lost 2 seats in 2018. No more taking this state for granted. Trump claims can get 2 billion for campaign.
US just not as bad off as rest of world yet. Excessive debt is slowing growth. In Japan and Europe it has already stopped. Analysis of Europe belongs in socialism campaign debate.
DEM Party survival pushes excessive debt upward. They cannot do any solutions for it. Make the case. Need the House back to GOP.
Crack down on excessive govt. Fed cannot overcome terrible fiscal policy.
What’s with the picture of Trump with a beard?
TX has a weak GOV compared to some other states. The state legislature meets a few months each year or every other year. The state depts and state office holders are available to work with the Feds. Won’t fight them like CA will.
Suggestions:
Go after sanctuary cities. Austin for sure.
Deport and work with ICE big time.
E-Verify mandatory and penalize all illegal alien employers. Fines, sanctions, etc.
Check each deported against voter rolls. If found, remove.
Left lawfare should be confronted and publicized. Trump tweets and other media.
Democrats are counting on a big demographic change... then they take over ... forever. Our work is cut out for us...
