Billionaire investor Bill Ackman said on Thursday China was now isolated and other U.S. trading partners were lining up to make deals following President Donald Trump's stunning reversal of his tariff decision.

Trump said on Wednesday he would temporarily lower the hefty duties he had just imposed on dozens of countries while further ramping up pressure on China.

Ackman? He’s just a hedge fund parasite who has never run a company, brought a product or service to market, nothing. His wealth came from the depredations on America’s middle class in the insane offshoring movement.

So not too interested in his opinion. Day before yesterday he was kvetching about the tariffs.

I can’t help but think there’s a setup going on here that is meant to entice China to use its military to repay / stop President Trump. It’s a NWO thing.
