President Donald Trump said Monday that trade talks with China, which had stalled out in May, have “already begun” following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G-20 summit over the weekend.

The renewed talks were being held by phone, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. The president added that any deal between the two economic superpowers would need to be somewhat tilted in the U.S.′ favor.

Trump and Xi had agreed during a bilateral meeting at the summit in Osaka, Japan, to hold off on imposing new tariffs on imports of each other’s goods and to move forward with trade negotiations.

I may be the only person, who is not actually hoping they make this agreement.

This seems to me, COMPLETELY like a way for America, to accept China’s cheating.

To tell the truth.

Discouraging sign. The tariffs would be better in the long run. I hope the talks fail.

Gee, we sell them soy beans and we import durable goods. We fought a Revolutionary war in 1776 against that sort of thing. I am getting sick of neo- Torys on this web sight.

Farmers, 2% of the economy, control the GOPe. I consider farmers my political enemy.
