Obviously. Trump has caved on the china tariffs, which is what caused it to tank in the first place.


He didn’t cave. It’s the art of the deal. Why no credit, at all, for anything he or the administration does. What is wrong with negotiating and coming to a more equitable and fair solution for both countries. Isn’t the left all about equity and fairness?!


He caved. There isn't a single objective media source or economist who says otherwise.

The US is in a worse position today than if Trump had done nothing on tariffs at all back in January.


Far left media you mean. Check out the non-left media and nothing is as dire as you paint it.


Since when is Barrons or the Wall Street Journal "far left"??????

Take your Trump colored glasses off...the real world is happy to have you back.

How is the US better off than it was in January with regard to China? China made absolutely no concessions and Trump dropped the tariffs.

What did the US get exactly? We all have to pay 30% taxes on Chinese goods now. Trump has expensive egg all over his face. He failed.

The UK barely gave up anything and China gave up nothing to get the tariffs dropped. Now other countries know that they only have to come up with a "framework" to get the tariffs dropped.

Yeah. Now we get to spend more for absolutely nothing in return. Art of the deal!

It sounds like a bit of flattery is all it takes.

Wow, we are toast.

From Bloomberg:

Xi refused to meet with Trump and “Officials in Beijing instead cut key interest rates and took other steps to fortify China’s economy, while dispatching diplomats around the world on a charm offensive to secure fresh markets for Chinese products and decry US “bullying.”

The rest of the world is cutting favorable deals with each other while the US is left with crumbs and tariffs. anyone who thinks Trump did any favors here to benefit the country is simply not playing attention.

You’re just not smart enough to comprehend the art of the deal where the US got nothing at all. /s

JPMORGAN: “.. The trade war shock is still material. .. we now estimate an effective ex-ante tariff rate of 14.4%. This is akin to a $475bn tax hike on US households and businesses, worth 1.6% of GDP (still sitting close to the largest tax hike in the post WWII period).”

He didn't cave, but has managed to auto-goal a $475 billion tax hike on American consumers.

Ok, Jan.

We’re not.
Trump is a demented moron. And the GOP can’t physically bend over any further. And MAGA is high on fentanyl.
