Trump Plays Dangerous Game Of Chicken With Trade Tariffs

Batting 100.

Senate blocks ZTE deal in rebuke of Trump deal
The move comes less than a week after the president entered into an agreement with telecom giant.

And the election seats congressmen as well.

The reality is that Trump is out of his depth and too old to learn. He is loosely intelligent but he is not President intelligent. He is probably cursing Robert Mercer (another IT bod) daily for rescuing his campaign, he could be doing the Apprentice now. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/...hedge-fund-tycoon-behind-the-trump-presidency

All this pushing back against the noisy manchild (and his royalist supporters) will prevent the worst excesses we can hope and stop an ever worse version coming in the late 2020s or early 30s.

we will see... so far so good, his job approval rating is trending up. already higher than obama at the same presidency point... the latter with much more positive coverage from the media.

Dozu - what a appropriate screen name - responds:

Turn off MSNBC
All you Liberals
You are not American
Silicon Valley are all Libs note: Facebook got him elected

Did I miss any other dozuuzies?

Instead of giving us some facts like we have given him.

Fun is up - time to ignore.

running away? the fun is just starting... I actually appreciate the counter points, to make sure that my arguments are solid.

 

[dozu888]

On ignore, better he goes back to whatever abyss he surfaced from.

Back to economics.

also running away. hm..

More Trump cherry-picking.

What was the state of the economy when Obama took office vs when Trump took office? Vastly different context.

The media coverage that Trump gets is entirely of his own creation. The only reason he can so confidently shout 'fake news' is that he himself is the source of falsehoods. It's a polite way of saying he has made a career of lying. He gets the benefit of the doubt in that it's difficult to prove intent with just a cursory review.

If anything he is the poster man-child of male white privilege. If one can't acknowledge this fundamental aspect of his character, then most likely one suffers from the same ignorance and prejudice.

who is breaking? the violators complaining much? pay up and all is good.

I now realize you're either a troll or incapable of understanding any sort of mildly complex thought. Keep trading.

ok - you are out of bullets... I see.

My time is limited and you didn't respond to any of my points, well, you probably didn't understand any of it so it would be hard for a challenged person like yourself to respond.
I'll leave you with this golden advice.

"I may be wrong, I mean I may stand before you in six months and say, 'Hey I was wrong,'" said Trump, before adding, "I don't know that I'll ever admit that, but I'll find some kind of an excuse." June 12, 2018.

He has probably agreed to denuclearize the US.

And on that ES touch rebound off Y-High many more thousands of bucks made without any effort proving you really don't need to be that smart to get rich. Especially if you start off rich like Donny.

Trump's biggest problem in trade is China, not Canada or Mexico, so it is natural he is dealing with China (and North Korea) first.

I agree, but the issue I have is that he keeps talking about trade deficit when he should be more focused on subsidies, trade barriers and intellectual property theft instead. I'll give Trump credit where it's due, some of his policies have helped the economy, but right now all I want is for him to listen to Kudlow already.

he's working on this as a whole package though... China has opened up some markets.
