So much naive and ignorant conversation. First the debt is not going to be an issue concerning this, but the debt situation was brought up here out of another awareness. That awareness is not mentioned, but I will. The debt is the result of past administrations quick fixes, now think a minute >> is a quick fix less or more child like than Trumps real intent to level the playing field? Every wise American knows the current situation with trade is damaging to our economy and strengthens China. At its most fundamental level Trump is trying to get China to the table with clean hands and honesty. By saying that everyone should know China has deliberately pushed and shoved rather than negotiated fairly. This is the main issue, Not the one China policy, T Bills, understood politics (as China abuses that severely) and concentrate on equality of basic business trade practice. This is the good intent of Trump, but he has to play as dirty as THEY. Thats the only thing current PRC ROC knows.
