I’m sorry to post here but I really need the support I can literally verify anything I’m honestly looking for a remote job 😢 if anyone out there can contribute in anyway please 🙏🏾 I’ve been trying to get my life saving medication all week
Story with link. And while I could care less if China walked out or not, the fact is no story I have found anywhere says they walked out, including this one. They returned to the venue after a lunch break. And that was after the morning session. I respect and follow, but this one is concerning.
I have made the mistake of posting memes that were fabrications of AI, and the really bad thing about it is that it diminishes the truth, even when the point may be valid. While most often not faux newz fabricated idiocy, we all must be vigilant in keeping it real & 100% honest.
Yes, you're right. It can be easy to do. Overall I think most people here (that I follow at least) make an effort to make sure as they can that what they're posting is true.
Hear you. My post here isn’t even about the trade talks themselves, but about the reporting of them here by multiple posters that I follow and trust. I want to know the posts I read daily state facts and are not sensationalized. With all the craziness going on, I want at least that.

Bummer - I wish that the Chinese would have walked away. Maybe the orange man is offering zero % tariffs? The problem is that every country in the world allowed companies to take production to China for lower costs and higher profits.
Trump has never told the truth in his life. JD stopped telling the truth when he joined MAGA. In fact, the last time JD told the truth, he said, if elected, Trump would be America’s Hitler. And after 100 days of chaos, you f*cking idiots still fail to realize you’ve been taken by a conman.
Although, I don’t think it was an intentional lie, I think someone may have got it wrong. I don’t think China is going to put up with much bullshit tho.
I know! I find myself doing a thought exercise, would I rather be part of China or Trump's America? I choose China. I expect intelligent decisions from their autocrat and the spying is overt instead of covert, plus NO RELIGION and women are equal citizens, abortions paid for by national healthcare.
Right now, the US is the enemy of the US. This administration full of unqualified people has no idea what it’s doing. It’s certainly not helping Americans.
You obviously don’t have two nickels to rub together or you wouldn’t be posting that constant “liberal” crap. So far your orange boy has done NOTHING other than tank the US economy with his “deals”. You need to get a brain and get in line.
And to be clear, the US *can not* "win" a trade war with China. China has the world to sell to. The US has no one else to buy from and no capacity to make the products in the US without materials from elsewhere.
Not to mention, the u.s. president has rendered American goods as non grata to lots of countries. I'd buy China over American goods all the live long days. Talk about shitty branding, DJchump
When Walmart and Target run dry of consumer goods, the US people* may just sit up and question their choices. (*aside the most ardent users of red baseball caps)
I can't see this ending well, let alone a 'win' arriving.
But now China knows they can charge higher prices regardless. Americans are the only losers here.
Potential upside: perhaps global demand for cheap stuff/slave labor conditions will decrease. I don't think China's other trading partners are quite as enamored of stuff as many Americans.
You have a tendency to post things that either aren't true or have no reliable source. At least this time you corrected your original post. Perhaps do some real journalism before posting.
We are infants in comparison, and the US, from colonies to nation today is ~400-odd years. They've overcome better and worse. They deserve that respect from us. No matter what your opinion on China is, they are our elders. Period.
China lifted one billion people out of poverty. The US can't even do the same for the 37 million poor people in America. But Trump repeats ad nauseum, that the US is the richest country in the world. It's nothing to be proud of.
The wealthy and wage disparity in the US is at record highs. Rarely in world history has any nation or political entity ever NOT had Proletariat rebellion over its oppressive Oligarchy by this point. And the 600 US billionaires were made aware and are seeking to wipe us out, by any means.
I'm sorry, but a supposedly Communist country wherein any percentage of the population has more than the majority is a failure of the system in practice and more akin to capitalism. Yes, the country is more successful than most, but it's still failing the majority of its people and needs improvement
Lee Kwan Yew brought Singapore from a third to first world country in one generation.
Amazing things can be done, none of which would ever happen under Trump. Polar opposite bringing the US from a first to third world country in one election.
Because they saw all of this coming. Trump severely overestimated China’s reliance on us, but they had already de-levered their US export GDP from 5% to 2.8% over the last 6 years.
They have few sh*ts to give, and are using this blunder to gain world leadership.
I think Trump in power is proof positive that China is the only World Super Power left. The USA is a rich country who is starving its citizens of food, wealth, self determination and freedom. Ever aspect of life in the US is rigged to rip the bottom 99% off to feed the insatiable greed of the rich.
They use the term " Your grandchild will be forced to pay this dept back" . This plants the seed in our minds that they have already gotten away with stealing trillions from us.
Of course they did. They don't give two hoots if they trade with the US. They have found new places to trade with, as have other countries. If they aren't careful, the US will be left behind.
In the live broadcast from Oval Office with the UK Prime Minister talking over the phone, one could hear in the Prime Minister’s voice that he could hardly keep himself from laughing, giggling in glee and wonderment of the pathetic “art of the deal” in action.
I don’t operate on wishes, just facts.
I realize you likely have your “alternative facts”, but this UK-US trade “deal” raises taxes on their citizens and ours-ours more than theirs:
Republicans. All in DC and every state or local legislature are Republicans. All billionaires, corps, financial institutions donated to Republicans. No ballot anywhere says MAGA only Republican. And they could stop this abomination anytime they want to .
If the US thinks it can dictate terms to China, then it is badly misguided. The US has weakened its position, become more isolated in the world, and cannot be trusted to honour any international agreements.
The US needs China more than China needs the US - a fact that Trump is struggling to accept.
You don't think Canada is watching closely. PM Carney already told the US that their will be comprehensive discussions regarding the next trade meetings
Canada needs to drive a hard bargain with the US, and be ready to walk away if the US can’t be realistic. Plenty of trade opportunities elsewhere and if the US wants to marginalise itself (even unwittingly), so be it.
To be clear XI is backing Putin in Russia, Russia/Putin with Trump & the whitehouse shitshow, Modi creeps in too as he is still in with Russia ! Fucking C*nts every last one!
There was a luncheon that was planned the entire time about 2 hours after the talks began, so I'm pretty sure that's what happened. These guys are all about using a bogus headline for some reason.
And the main reason they HAVE to import as much as they do is because their customers have been paid shit wages for decades!
WM would lose billions of dollars in revenue if they bought all their good from domestic manufacturers BC their customers couldn't afford to pay that much.
NOT SURPRISED CHINA IS NOT GOING TO BE BULLIED OR DISRESPECTED!! THIS WILL SET THE TONE FOR OTHER COUNTRIES WHO WILL NOT NEGOTIATE IN GOOD FAITH WITH A FELON AND LIAR!! TRUMP HAS NO STANDING AS A MORAL OR ETHICAL BUSINESS MAN!!!
It seems that this isn’t true. With everything going on and as bad as things actually are there is no need to make shit up.
This makes you no better than Liar Trump and all who lie for him.
The billionaires behind project 2025 support prez felon & his admin. It concerns me that this whole debacle is moving just as they want it to. prez felon & his desire for wealth, power, admiration were exactly what they needed. How anyone finds the unflushable lump charismatic is beyond me.
Of course they did, because Trump made up a BS number like 145%, then he said he was compromising with another BS number, 80%, and he's just a nut job.
China to U.S.: Why are you punching yourself in the dick?
U.S. to China: Oh, are you triggered? Did I hurt your feelings?What a snowflake!
China: Not really; we're a little concerned for you though.
U.S.: Well I'm going to keep punching myself in the dick until YOU surrender!!
China: 🤦🤷
While I hate Trump I’m confused as to why our government won’t release to the public the fact China hacked our government, military & American corporations stealing billions of dollars worth of classified information, research & trade secrets. I guess to protect inept NSA.
FAFO, THEY'RE IMPLODING ON EACH OTHER EVERY DAY, AND MOST AMERICAN ARE WAKING UP TO THEY'RE BULLSHIT. RESIST REVOLT REVOLUTION CRUSH THE 🟠🤡 AND HIS JESTER CABINET UNDER YOUR BOOTS THE SOONER THE BETTER OR YOU'LL BE LIVING IN A COUNTRY YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE. WE ARE SLIPPING INTO A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY.
China just sitting back watching the world’s worst negotiator lose negotiations with himself. 145%! No response from China. 80%! No response from china. Today it’s 35%! China laughs and walks away. They know soon enough he will panic and make a terrible deal for America.
Trump is a bull in a china shop. He thinks his intimidation and extortion tactics will work on the world stage. All he has is bullying. He can’t even spell diplomacy or negotiation. He is a failure as a world leader.
He should have stayed in his safe lane. A family owned business. Low level.
It’s completely the opposite of what the Orange Turd keeps professing. They don’t need us, but the corporations in America who shipped all those manufacturing jobs over there, DEFINITELY need them.
Everybody is stalling because they know with each passing day Trump's position gets weaker and weaker. They'll flatter Trump's ego. Lie to him. Whatever. But no deals of any consequence. Just let Donnie twist in the wind.
Meanwhile America will suffer due to the indifference of a complicit GOP/GQP Senate and House contingent reneging on their sworn oath's. We don't want to forget that, ever!
It’s not like the democrats are working hard on this either. Americans will suffer and the entire world does not care, including Congress, because Trump is a major asshole.
Who knew that for all their bluster, the majority of US politicians of all stripes are spineless toadies protecting their ill gotten gains from insider trading (yes you too Schumer, Jeffries, Fetterman, Slotkin)?
Kudos to AOC, Crockett, Murphy, Warren, Sanders, Frost.
Special mention Ras Baraka.
What we are seeing is Russia, China, Iran, Cuba and other outliers cosying up around Putin. Whilst Europe, Britain, Canada, Australia, Denmark and others seeing like minded trade opportunities without the USA.
It's complicated. Ivanka claims she has shuttered her businesses while still generating $ from them. She has held her patents in case she wants to re-start her businesses that she says she has shuttered but is still making money from. It's complicated.
Hey friend. Even sharing screenshots of AI slop hurts real people who are struggling artists (like myself and probs friends of yours too), it generates profit for billionaire tech bros, and REALLY fucks up the environment. We should all agree that that’s bad, yes? We def shouldn’t enable them right?
so fake! Toys R Us went out of business long ago. the little ones are just gonna have to settle for playing in the open sewers for their fun and play, from here on out.
Doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. Honestly, China refusing the help old dipshit Donny might push more reds to turn AGAINST him as they see his lies fall apart as the prices soar and markets crash. Good for China. Fuck Donald Two Dolls
It was reported foreign governments developed psychological behavorial and legal profiles on Trump in order to address and cope with him. Foreign leaders are counselled before head to head meetings with him.
I gave a presentation at the White House during his first term. We were advised to provide lots of visuals to keep his attention from wandering. We brought in a large model of a city with cell towers that lit up to demonstrate 5G. It was like speaking to a toddler.
It’s a little bit like when the UK showed up for Brexit negotiations with the EU. One side was thinking they were holding all the cards. The other side was prepared.
I don’t think anyone following the Trump-China tariffs is surprised at this. I’m sure the US said something stupid like refusing to lower their tariffs any further unless China removes theirs entirely.
LOOKS LIKE THE ART OF THE DEAL REALLY SHOULD BE CALLED THE ART OF NO DEAL😳🤣
I MEAN, SERIOUSLY, UNITED STATES COMPANIES
HAVE UTILIZED AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF CHINA'S. CHEAP LABOR
AND NOW I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH A TARIFF OF A 145%
The people in China are not stupid. They know the united states needs them more then china needs the united states
THIS TIME TRUMP HAS MET HIS MATCH🤣
Too bad us citizens, a step in the middle, they're going to have to pay the price for this stupidity🤐

China: Yep
Let that sink in. All the way in.
China isn’t a good guy, they are just the only ones being reasonable that also understand how basic math works.
Trump best answer China with respect.
2) I am only recapping true facts from posts on this thread.
There is no “great deal” Donald can make with China.
China, as Donald would say, holds all the cards.
US exports are a small percentage of China exports.
The US is not capable to replace China manufacturing domestically.
Losing China imports will result in thousands of job losses in US, no losses in China.
Trump doesn’t cave. Xi wins.
All done.
Not this one, nor that one - they were made in China.
He wanted a Made-in-America shovel so he expanded his search until he found one.
It was four times the price.
In the end, he bought the Made-in-China shovel.
In 2006!
China holds most of the cards, and Trump is too dumb to see it.

It was the STINK, wasn't it?
TRUMP'S stench lingers on those that are close to him.

and the picture is from a Media Asia SYHP overseas newsblogger post which says the talks are being held at the request of the U.S.

China will walk out as many times as it takes until Trump fashions a win out of whatever he is left with after these talks.
🙋♀️

Yes for sure before that there was civilization...
They have few sh*ts to give, and are using this blunder to gain world leadership.
If we don’t get a handle on this it’ll be a Chinese 21st century in the same way it was an American 20th.
They keep us fighting neighbors, saying “there’s no money for anything” while using buy-borrow-die debt schemes to avoid paying their dues to society.
The class war laid bare.
No wonder he bankrupted 6 casinos.
Putin and Xi got married yesterday
I realize you likely have your “alternative facts”, but this UK-US trade “deal” raises taxes on their citizens and ours-ours more than theirs:
Trump doesn't have the cards...?
How... Ironic.
😂😂😂
The US needs China more than China needs the US - a fact that Trump is struggling to accept.
trump is so stupid he somehow believes the world will bend to his stupid games.
They won’t.
We all see other countries creating trade partnerships & alliances with each other leaving us in the US to kick rocks.
& once China stands up 2 trump, as is Canada, as will Japan & Mexico & the EU, trump's extortion & grift will collapse
Only Middle East shieks, putin, orban, bukele, maduro are his axis allies
This is 4D chess.
We got this

China Team: Yeah, we have US Treasuries to sell. We’re out.
Have they returned after lunch?
Or is it a long, long lunch?
And the main reason they HAVE to import as much as they do is because their customers have been paid shit wages for decades!
WM would lose billions of dollars in revenue if they bought all their good from domestic manufacturers BC their customers couldn't afford to pay that much.
FAFO !
Fuck trump
The only one Trump has left is the joker 🃏 aka “the fool”.
This makes you no better than Liar Trump and all who lie for him.
Buh bye.
U.S. to China: Oh, are you triggered? Did I hurt your feelings?What a snowflake!
China: Not really; we're a little concerned for you though.
U.S.: Well I'm going to keep punching myself in the dick until YOU surrender!!

Hope so😁😁😁
There are no adults in the room in the US it’s like negotiating with a three-year-old having a tantrum

Trump did this. America great? but alone.
They should.
Call our bluff. There is no trade war. It’s just Donald Trump being stupid.
Pull back Ivanka’s patents!
Gibberish from men not free to state the truth
Attacks on american childhood. Clay Barbies?
First Nations will teach the work-force.
American Boomers got to live the greatest lifetime of anyone in human history and we’re going to spend our lives suffering to pay for it.
They’ll get one club and one rock,
AND THEY WILL LOVE IT!
No hands.
I thought so.
They kinda snubbed the US for 200 years before Kissinger & Nixon.
