Doesn't look that way now and China simply sat back and laughed and let Trump destroy his own political base.Too soon to jump to any conclusions but the market is sending him a message. It's easy to govern when you inherit an economy on it's way up . Try doing it when it's on the way down. Six months from now if the GDP is falling short of  projections, revenues are falling short of projections and the only things that are going up are inflation, government borrowing and interest rates this might just be 1979 all over again.</blockquote>
