Trumps trade war fails

[conan]

Because libs are defending China.

Okay, here’s your chance:

What is the liberal (Democrat) solution to dealing with China? Details please.

TPP which would have greatly strengthened our position in Asia and put multi-nation pressure on China.

Trump cancelled it because it was Obama’s after Trump falsely or ignorantly claimed China was part of TPP.

Trump is fond of saying trade wars are easy to win. Can you cite one example of a victorious trade war?

@conan

Yeah

Space agency chief fired after revealing recent Amazon deforestation | New Scientist
So they can sell more soybeans.

And you thought this was somehow scoring you a point?

Yeah. That made no sense to me either.

[conan]

Is that not what’s happening Jay?

dow jones pre opening down 400
china devalued the yuan to blunt the effect of trumps tarrifs
china also directed state owned companies to stop all us ag imports.

Was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor? Nothings over till trump says its over

[lessright]

So Brazil’s president fires his own appointees for telling the truth.

Trump must be so proud and flattered of the influence he’s having on the world.

(“He’s really messed ag up pretty bad,” he said. “There’s way more than just ethanol. Trade deals that aren’t happening. These bailouts. None of us want these bailouts. It’s a joke. If he didn’t mess with our markets, he wouldn’t have to give us this money back.”)

I’ll listen to the people living through Trump’s disaster over some cheerleaders.

“He’s messed up ag pretty bad.”

“It’s a joke.”

It is…and it buttresses the case that Trump is succeeding in the trade war…how, again, exactly?

@conan

And how many billions are we collecting from tariffs?

Billions in tax revenues from US taxpayers don’t forget that part.

Huh? Who put that idea in your head? Please, by all means, let’s have some examples. This will be exciting!

@bluedogdem

We hurt them so bad China bought soybeans from someone else

…and the tariffs go up. Way to go China. I wonder if deep down, they’re masochists?

They don’t pay them why should they care?

@tnt

Everyone realizes that the TPP was designed to achieve trump’s stated goals of his trade war while actually prospering instead of suffering, right?

Fortunately, it has been implemented. Well, just in Mexico, US, and Canada.

fortunately, we’re redistributin’ 'em to agribusiness.

It’s lose/lose.
