China signaled on Monday it was now seeking a rapid and "calm" end to its ongoing trade war with the U.S., as Asian markets crumbled and China's currency plummeted to an 11-year low following the latest tariffs on $550 billion in Chinese goods announced last Friday by the Trump administration.

News of the possible opening in negotiations came shortly after President Trump threatened to declare a national emergency that would result in American businesses freezing their relationships with China.

If we are not strong now when will we be stronger. You can’t negotiate with a Tiger etc. now is the time. We have DJT, later it may be Warren or Biden or a different clown. Fight, F:::k, or go for your gun. It’s now. MAGA.

Let’s see it done and not gloat.

The world needs to calm down and move on.

The chicoms nearly did this in May but pride got in their way. I hope things are done in such a way from here so that we get what we need without making things worse.

Lefty is going to go all kinds of nuts over this. They were pulling for China and wanting America to be badly damaged.

I guess they will find a lie in this so they can claim that they are all proud of themselves and somehow lie like hell and make believe they won something.

That is just what liberals do in our modern society.

They made the mistake of thinking they can wait until Trump is out of office.

Payback is going to be hard for them.

No reaction from the futures markets so far.

I am not going to count on a breakthrough until I see a reaction in the stock market.

Somehow rich guys with lots of money on the line seem to have good sources of inside information...

Biden was offering them a certain flexibility.

Biden is over the hill and almost gone.

He can’t remember what state he is in, what happened or did not happen when he was VP, and keeps making up numbers that are easily verified as not being anywhere near true.

He needs to go home and put his feet up and enjoy his remaining years.

Biden is a good guy, but he is past his expiration date and shows it every time he opens his mouth.
