Chinese communist = Asian ISIS. According to Google there are 90,000,000 in the Chinese communist party. 6.5% of the total population are ruling China.
Not sure why working stiffs are obsessed with China.
The great majority of the manufacturing exodus in the early 2000’s was caused by automation, not the lower labor costs that China offered.
As far as the tentative “deal,” I suppose it can’t hurt, but I doubt it’s going to do much for most.
After all, what does opening up China to US financial services companies do for your average Schlitz drinking US slob? Not much!
It's that way in every communist country. It's not like registering to be a Republican or Democrat. You have to earn your way in.

Yeah. He's tanked manufacturing, and screwed farmers too. It's kind of shocking that "America First" has translated to isolationism and protectionism instead of recognition we actually have a GLOBAL economy.
I know you don't believe that. But next time you put on your orthopedic Skechers, look inside and see where they were made. When you're at WalMart do the same thing, and see how much of it was made here.
Almost none. If you educated yourself on the GLOBAL economy, you'd know that protectionism and tariffs are a bad idea.
But you won't.
Also, do you think that maybe Trump "made a deal" with the Chinese to salvage something from an absolutely terrible week for him? "I'll look the other way on Hong Kong, but you've got to make ME look good, Xi".
Also, why am I on permanent moderated status when others on here say stuff way more controversial than me? I've seen quite a few racist and worse postings that sail right through.
I behave myself and stay in the mod que?
How has President Trump tanked manufacturing?
In Trump's First 30 Months, Manufacturing Up By 314,000 Jobs Over Obama; Which States Are Hot?
He got off to a decent start, but there have been recent layoffs, and consecutive quarters of retraction.
Personally, I think politicians pay lip-service to manufacturing to entice the stiffs. Considering that manufacturing may not even be ten percent of the economy at this point, it seems they spend a lot of time prattling on about it - the 50’s were a long time ago, folks.

Manufacturing sector is at a 10-year low. Fact.

Whatever. It's always entertaining to see you flail and then run to the mods. I'm not sure of who is or isn't a mod these days, so directly contacting one isn't really an option.
Kramer is really an appropriate avatar for you. Entertaining, but basically insane.
Like he delivered on North Korea?
Why do you guys insist on believing everything that comes out of this guy’s mouth?
Talk of a manufacturing renaissance is nostalgic nonsense.
We’re 15 years away from complete mechanization of manufacturing processes.

How old are you now? 19? 20? Great point on the lip service, and another on manufacturing. That sector is largely off-shore, placed there largely by Republican-run companies.
Trump wants to return to the 1950's, which sounds great to his base of old, high-school educated FOX addicts. But it isn't realistic and/or feasible. That ship has sailed, but it doesn't stop the Master Con Man from selling the false narrative that it CAN come back.
Was talking about our crops in the U.S., sorry if that wasn't clear.
Why is it you insist on all-or-nothing?

Yep. NK has played with Trump like a toy. China is also toying with Trump, because Kim is their boy, and anything that disrupts the US helps China consolidate their power.
While Trump works towards isolation, the Chinese are expanding into Africa, Pakistan, and the Middle East through "cooperative" infrastructure projects these countries can't afford on their own.
NK has been a lose/lose for Trump and the US, but he acts like he "won". And, amazingly, his ignorant base buys it.

We've gotten nothing. Trump has been played for the fool he is.
