So much for that great trade deal. Time to rescind it.
OLD "news"
Disentangling ourselves from China isn’t going to be pain-free, but it would be worth it - if we followed through. I doubt we will.
Am I paranoid, or am I right?
Trump made tariffs fair again, costing China a lot of money.
A virulent bug was hatched in China and made its way to the USA within days, during US election season. The reaction destroyed our economy, hopefully temporarily.
Did China give us the bug as revenge and to get rid of Trump who halted the gravy train of US money to China?
Just asking.
Why post this NOW! It is SOOOOOOOO OLD that it borders on FAKE news.
The CURRENT time is TWO worlds away from when this article was written!
Must be I missed the point.
Making a point NOT TO BUY CHINESE MADE crap.
Never thought of looking at it that way.
Over the last few weeks all I have seen are negative ads on television with regard to POTUS and how he has no idea what it’s like to lose a job and have no money. The ads don’t say who is sponsoring them and at the same time, I see NO ads at all about Biden.
Get used to it. We are disengaging with China and switching over to India on quite a few things. It is not going to be painless.
BLAH BLAH CNBC
He could learn to code, if he could speak English.
Gotta make sure they trash Trump in his stronghold — the Farm Belt.
This will “Make Mexico Great”. Our cost to do business is too high and we don’t have enough people that want to work. Why work when Uncle Sugar will pay you more to stay home.
Yes, old news. Not much is going to help now regardless. Meat plants closing or running slow. 97 million acres of corn most likely. Demand down. China was slowing down on soymeal purchases for pork production because of swine flu there last year, which reduced their breeding herd from 30 to 40 percent. China ruined the markets with their practices and this virus, not the President of US. For some reason I was suspicious that China signed the deal in January all of a sudden. The election was less than a year away and they had been avoiding the deal for 3 years. It just seemed out of place at the time, to me.

“Are the current food shortage threats maybe a little blackmail?”
The entire supply chain is out of alignment and suffering. It’s what happens when politicians interfere with the markets.
I have been saying this from Day 1.
These are lies, all lies. Trump is winning the fight against china, disinfecting the virus and winning big against trade rivals. These farmers were bought by the dems
Tyson was a major supporter of the Clintons
That they are spreading FUD works easily for the Leftist playbook
Many masks etc are made in China
