About That Phone Call With Xi On Tariffs

And the damndest thing was King Charles invited him for a SECOND state visit. Charles has cancer and in reality is dying, and his daughter in law will do well to live to see all of her kids married.

Even Musk might have the grace to say "thank you, thank you very much, can you pass the salt......"
 
Neither country really needs the other. Both will survive. It's just a matter of how much damage they want to do to themselves.
How will China fare if Trump gets Europe, Mexico, Canada and a bunch of asian countries to ALSO put tariffs on China? I promise you that is what the US is currently negotiating behind closed doors.
 
Jesus 2.0 says the countries are lined up outside the Oval Office door, ready to bend the knee to the Great One.
The orange bag O' shit is a weakling devoid of leadership capabilities. He's plays a tough guy on TeeVee - that's it. That's why he's intimidated by Putin and Xi. Either would chew him up and spit him out.
Anyway, the countries that actually matter are China, the EU, Japan, Canada, Mexico and South Korea.
Sure. Unfortunately, disaster administration 2.0 is in over its head with this. The orange bag O' shit has one tool (tariffs) at his disposal because diplomacy is dead (he killed it) and foreign policy is dictated based upon his feelz. :rolleyes:

What a disgrace.

You mean the countries he's already pissed off by leveraging ridiculous tariffs on them for stupid reasons?
 
Bonds and stocks are two completely different entities. Selling them won't tank the stocks value. Maybe just a little bit, but certainly not like stocks.
That is not true. Selling off shitloads of bonds hurts China tremendously.

If China rapidly sold its Treasury holdings, it would depress prices of its remaining holdings, essentially causing China to lose money on its own investments. As Pettis explains, "If China starts selling off its holdings, it would be costly for Beijing."

 
Trump claimed when slapped the first set of new tariffs on China last week, that he would soon get a call from Jinping, like other countries started doing.

He didn't get a call and then Trump canceled a meeting with Chinese trade officials. He was still figuring that Xi would call. But it didn't happen. All it started was an escalating poker game where each side raised the stakes.

China is calling Trump a laughing stock. Trump is now going to have even more to make him angry. What happens when is angry? He raises the tariff again.


And the losing streak continues. Nobody is afraid of Trump, and nobody is calling to kiss his ass. He's a total joke around the world.

That sound you hear is the entire world economy shifting towards the Chinese economy for goods and services, as well as goods. Once that shift is complete, it will permanently hurt the American economy, and red states will suffer the worst.

Oh, and I mention China just imposed a ban on all US LNG imports, and tankers are now just sitting in the Pacific with nowhere to go?


Do you "stand with China"?

Easy now. This is all part of Trump's plan to make himself look stupid, crash the economy, all to deliver the goals he has yet to make clear. All part of the plan. You just dont understand.

That was a good link. I'll be the first to admit that global economics is not one of my strong suits.
