Damn right....Kinda like....What the hell do you want from us....fair trade??

This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you......Oh,no,it’s not. The Chinese Hang Seng index is now down today more than triple the US Dow index on a percentage basis. Trump’s tariff war with China reminds me of Reagan ratcheting up military spending in a military buildup with the USSR expressly to propel the demise of their ailing economy into bankruptcy. It hurts until the other guy dies. Then we hold a party at the funeral, shed a few false tears and run out to collect the dividends. Unfortunately we are going to have to pay $1.25 rather than $1.00 for that can opener we could have bought from China while we are waiting for the funeral hearse to drag their economic carcass away. A small price to pay to get rid of a parasitic competitor/enemy.They need us. We definitely don’t need them and I genuinely hope He gets rid of the entire trade relationship

Idjets in the media just don’t get that this is a work in progress, all in the process of negotiation. They seem to think agreements should appear magically after one meeting, like rabbits out of a hat. Trump is teaching them what real deal making is like. I doubt they will like what they see, in the end..

Winston Churchill warned against "building German industry with British and American money" when it would empower the Nazi regime; a warning equally valid for a China still run by the Communist Party. It had been fashionable for some time to claim that a more prosperous China would become a more liberal China. But that has not been the case and is no loner a tenable stance. President Xi Jinping's "China Dream" echoes too many of the themes of Hitler's Mein Kampf for anyone to rest easy.
