The cancellation was due to protests, according to Chilean President Sebastian Pinera.
Trump and Xi were scheduled to meet at the APEC summit to discuss a possible “phase one” deal that the two countries are close to finalizing.

Are the protesters the heroes or villains?
“summit where Trump and Xi were planning to sign a trade deal has been suddenly canceled (tr) “
My backyard is available. Iowa, middle of the US, why not?!
Don’t know. The riots are allegedly over a public transit fare increase, but they have been far more widespread and violent than would seem warranted for that one issue.
WAKE ISLAND.It worked before!
Just reschedule it for one of the remote resorts in Patagonia. The protesters won’t be able to get there and would be easy to handle if they did.
Meet Xi for Tea @ Greenland!

Liberals want to re-name it to Woke island.
But we ain’t bought it yet. have it at one of Trumps Hotels and watch the liberals howl like lemurs during a full moon.
A quick search on Chile in the past couple of weeks would bring up images of 2 million people marching in the capital. When was the last time 2 million people showed up for ANYTHING in the US?
They’ll be making more noises than the Werewolf of London!
The protesters are just folks who are absolutely fed up with the way they have been treated by the government and businesses for the last 25 years. Having lived and worked there, I feel some sympathy. OTOH, there is a lot of simple resentment that politicians are getting rich by being politicians. That sounds familiar.
The damage is being done by anarchist and communist youth, egged on by the ultra-left-wing parties, a coalition called the Frente Amplio (Broad Front). The leftist outcry against the government’s efforts to control the violence has led to a sort of paralysis in the executive branch. So, slowly but surely, neighborhoods are beginning to take enforcement into their own hands. Sort of like Koreans in the L.A. riots of 1992.
probably drinking pina coladas at Trader Vics.
Stories of canceled trade deals that were about to happen are getting old. The truth is that neither side really wants something to happen. Trump is trying to get China to import farm goods that it doesn’t need. And China is trying to outlast Trump’s time in office.
The Chinese *sses are again taking Trump’s team for a ride!!! THEY fooled him twice to hold off on the tariffs Etc...bastards are evil!! They are up to something that needs time before any tariffs take place!!
