Oh, sorry.
On USMCA both sides are pointing fingers when it comes to negotiations. The Democrats have the upper hand here. They don’t necessarily want to give Trump a win. But they also don’t want to be seen as blocking a deal that could help US manufacturing and farming. It seems to me that the ball is in Trump’s court on this one.
On the China deal I also think the ball is in Trump’s court. He and folks like Larry Kudlow want all of us to think that China is a hurting puppy and they are going to wait it out a bit and get the best deal.
China will wait this one out and not give in to a deal that will not be of great benefit to them.
