Trade War with China… No Problemo!

[JB BooksParticipant 3182]

You can guess why none of the left-wing media is reporting this, but Google the stock market results today for China and compare it to today’s S&P 500. China lost 3.76% and we were down 0.40%. It’s kinda obvious that they cannot sustain heavy losses at nine times our rate for very long. The bottom line is that a negotiation is going to happen in the not-too-distant future.

About 10 years ago they were talking about it being the “Asian century” the thing is the “Asian century” if it ever happened lasted a decade at best.

They are good at copying but that is it. A few more years and they will be on their way to being peasants again.

Tariffs are one of the things I disagreed with Trump on during his campaign.

They have been weaponized before and the results were not good.

But…..

After watching the Trumpster work for a year and a half it is becoming clear that tariffs are a negotiation tactic for Trump. Not the end game.

After all the US has been in a trade war for decades and Washington did nothing except make things worse.

All I’m saying is lets give El Trumpo a chance before we go all chicken-little.

Right on the money, Grue. He’s just using the fastest effective tool available because Congress won’t do jack to help him; those politicians sold their b~~~~ a long time ago.

They have other ways of hurting the U.S. economy, they can stop inbound mergers and acquisitions within the U.S. Chinese companies invested a total of $43 Billion in 2017, $60 Billion in 2016. $12 Billion in 2015, while US companies invested only 1/2 as much during this period.

This amounts to serious incoming monies that will probably be invested in other countries.

You guys have to understand…the average American is retarded. They’ll bitch endlessly about health insurance companies that run 4-5% profit margins as they’re busy texting on their latest iPhone…that Apple assembled in China and sold here at a 50%+ profit margin.

They’ll scream and cry that Trump tariffs are nothing but evil…yet at the same time countries that tariff our stuff aren’t a problem, and companies like Apple raking in billions in profits doing everything they can to avoid paying American taxes and off shoring as much labor as possible are just fine.

Turdo has already blinked. Lets see who blinks next.

Here is a fun fact at the G7 Trump suggested no tariffs. This tells me he doesn’t really want them either.

Sorry to my non U.S. brothers, Mexico, Canada, the EU, China etc NEEDS an un-level playing field.

Sure useless junk might get more expensive short-term. Stop buying useless chinese junk short-term.

I understan all that.
And the people that don’t are Shillary or Bernie voters.
They both lost. Though to be fair if the DNC had played it straight we could be talking about Sanders and not POTUS Trump.
