From the article:

Six of the newly-designated “unreliable entities” were American tech companies, including Shield AI Inc., Sierra Nevada Corporation, Cyberlux Corporation, Edge Autonomy Operations LLC, Group W, and Hudson Technologies Company. The activity that allegedly made them “unreliable” was selling military technology to Taiwan.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Wednesday furiously denounced Trump’s latest tariff increase as a “hegemonic and bullying move.”

“If the U.S. truly wants to settle the issue through dialogue and negotiation, it should let people see that they’re ready to treat others with equality, respect, and mutual benefit,” said foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian.

“If the U.S. decides not to care about the interests of the U.S. itself, China and the rest of the world, and is determined to fight a tariff and trade war, China’s response will continue to the end,” he threatened.

I haven’t heard the words, “American hegemony” out of the Chinese in decades.

Exactly what I predicted has happened. Trump rewarding the countries that are making deals and China gets to pay the price for not. Go Trump.

I am by no means an expert in these matters but I have a feeling that China needs us more than we need them to unload their goods. What’s anyone’ thoughts?

China furiously denounced Trump’s tariffs as “hegemonic” and called on the world to unite against Trump’s “bullying.”

Their economy collapses without access to our markets because the rest of the world can’t absorb any surplus goods equivalent to what the United States imports from them.

Where’s the “Boo Hoo” girl?

End game? How about oil imports.

I think China should consider their sea lanes; oil tankers from the Iran. They get 93% of their oil via tankers. Their navies can’t protect them ultimately.

If there is a strike in Iran, that could interrupt Chinese oil supplies.

About two-thirds of the trade imbalance with China comes from the Chinese counterpart of ‘Buy American’.

People in China generally have the option of buying Chinese, and do.

They don’t want to be seen as unpatriotic.

Since you predicted this..when are these countries going to make deal with Trump..so far Ive heard for instance, Japan and South Korea say they want to bring their tariffs down to zero but so far no one has done it

“I am by no means an expert in these matters but I have a feeling that China needs us more than we need them to unload their goods. What’s anyone’ thoughts?”

Walk through Lowe’s and Walmart and see what the Chinese made.

China doesn’t need to export to the USA. Factory hours might get reduced by 20%, but life will go on.

Decades?

Heck, they drop the term every few days. Which is oddly revealing of their own global goals.

And MSBC, CNN. The View, Pelosi, Shumer and Democrats all, (I repeat myself) agree.
