“That could, in an extreme scenario, descend into another cold war.”

No, the extreme scenario is a real war.

That’s a good article published on July, the 9th. But Chinese and U.S. negotiators are now meeting towards agreements on trade.

He can lose face or lose his economy. Or both.
His choice.

We can be respectful friends with the Chinese but NOT if they're stealing from us on bad trade deals. The corrupt Clinton years are behind us...Trump's not a fool.

The Chinese know their trade with the United States is NOT fair and if they want to be a first rate power they cna’t be ripping people off... Would the Chinces put up with a store owner who was cheating? No. They would not. And countries are the same... China's acting like a lowlife power... and they must stop.

It's that easy. AND NO, it's NOT ever humiliating to be fair... and decent in business practices.

The chinese tariffs on American and other goods are protective.

President Trump is telling Xi, you are a citizen of the world and you must compete like everybody else.

The alternative will be tariffs on Chinese goods world wide. Trump, the leader, opened the door for everybody to do it.

Having failed to bluff Trump, the Chinese strategy will now be to hunker down and wait for Trump to leave office. Then its back to bribery as usual.

"it is unclear what Trump wants or how China can appease him."

They could lower their tariffs. Sometimes Trump is just too nuanced and stuff.

“However, capitulating to a “trade bully,” as the Chinese media calls Trump, is hard for Xi, a strongman in his own right. Worse still, it is unclear what Trump wants or how China can appease him.”

Could it be possible xi is really that stupid?

“Worse still, it is unclear what Trump wants or how China can appease him. The terms his negotiators presented to Beijing in early May were so harsh that it is inconceivable that Xi could accept them without being seen as selling out China.”

Never read Art of the deal? Of course Trump doesn’t expect them to give him what he asks for. They’ll end up giving him half, which is what he really wanted. They he’ll make them throw in some more at the end.

China have fired the first salvos of their trade war.

Business media is both lame and incompetent. The first salvo was fired 30 years ago. This our first return salvo of tariffs in a long and ONGOING trade war.

Pissing off your biggest Customer isn’t any way to go through life Son.

Time is measured as Pre POTUS Trump or Post POTUS Trump.

You are living in the Post POTUS Trump World now.
