That’s just it. The average American is getting cheap goods from them so they don’t care and the elite mentality dominating the leadership is selling us out making billions. They aren’t buying jack from us anymore in treasury bonds, the supposed reason for the trade imbalance. So why aren’t we at least slapping trade tariffs? Oh yeah, that elite sellout thing...

I don't think they ever intended on indefinite purchases of treasury bonds. That was merely part of the con job to get people to buy into the trade imbalance and stopping the tariffs.

Politicians are nothing but con artists. They make their sales pitches, knowing full well that they don't mean anything they say. Everything's all appearances for the t.v. and public, but the backroom deals are where the real discussions and intentions are known.
