The United States has approached China seeking talks over President Donald Trump’s 145% tariffs, a social media account affiliated with Chinese state media said on Thursday, potentially signalling Beijing’s openness to negotiations. “The U.S. has proactively reached out to China through multiple channels, hoping to hold discussions on the tariff issue,” Yuyuan Tantian said in a post published on its official Weibo social media account, citing anonymous sources.
So basically we’re admitting that we lost the trade war, and the whole world is going to belong to China. Isn’t that swell.
“trade war” …LOL… some imbeciles did a full leroy jenkins and now the NPCs cry. thats not what a war looks like…this is what a children do. pathetic.
It wasn’t even a full Leeroy Jenkins. He always went in for full, unrelenting DPS and would go until he was dead unless protected. This was barely poking the (Pooh) bear, and then running like hell the moment it doesn’t look great. The full Leeroy would be a full embargo backed by the Coast Guard.
You lost the one-sided trade war, yes. Trump literally defeated himself, showing how great of a businessman he is using tariffs.
If he were even slightly intelligent, we would be in so much trouble, but since he couldn’t organize a gang bang in a whore house I’m not as worried as I would be with real competence at the helm of the west.
Like his coup attempt on Jan 6th, his second term will just cause mayhem and corruption but will be fixable when he(if?) leaves.
Possibly, Yes.
China has a mandate to become global superpower #1 by 2049, Mao made a promise to the Chinese people and his underlings made that a promise to him.
1849 - 1949 was China’s “Century of humiliation”
1949 - 2049 is China’s “Century of Development”
2049 - 2149 is to be the “Chinese Century”
China will have pulled no stops to make that happen, whilst undoubtedly this is Trump fumbling over and over - this might actually be beneficial as now they don’t need to prove their worth as a superpower through war.
I think China will be the foremost superpower long before 2049.
Trump administration <standing pigeon-toed and grimacing>: “So, you know Trump was just kidding around… right?”
I could have sworn that Orange Man said days ago Xi was already reaching out to him.
I’m so confused. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can China demand regime change? Please?
I’m sure he does but he has encountered a traditional chinese response.
So he’s the first one to duck.

They won’t say ‘No’ - they’ll rightly ask “What’s in it for us?”
I bet they tell trump to eat rocks unless he comes clean with the world about his bullshit tariffs. He won’t, of course, so nothing will come of this.
He says all countries have ripped off the USA, even ones that have penguins only in them. He is going to learn that lying has consequences. It will be the first time in his life that he will learn this lesson, so we should take it easy on him(/s).
He even said we (Australia) are ripping them off, even though we have a very lopsided Free Trade Agreement in their favour.
I’m hoping after the weekend AUSFTA is done for (it’s Election Day tomorrow!).
One of the bigger stipulations in AUSFTA is that we buy medicines from USA first and foremost, no matter the cost, if they make a medication. This is to cripple the PBS (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme - basically fixed price medication in Australia for PBS listed medicines, The most any PBS listed medicine can cost is $31.60 or $7.70 if you’re elderly/disabled/unemployed/a carer for the previous 3) as Indian, Brazillian and even European pharma is so much cheaper than US.
Losing the shackles of AUSFTA is something I yearn for and Trump is stupid enough to allow it happen.
Chump? Capable of learning? You jest.
