Fascinating set of 7 keys (out of 10), allegedly given to the People’s Army by Fu Zuoyi (shorturl.at/eGOQW) who began secret negotiations with Lin Biao (of course not mentioned😜), in which he arranged the surrender of the Beiping garrison, totaling a quarter of a million men, on January 31, 1949.

What Trump wants from tariffs is public displays of submission and/or bribes. Japan isn't going to do that. Most countries won't do that. They're open to actual trade negotiations, but that would mean doing something for America, and the Trump admin simply does not think that way. They have no ask.

Some news-reading American friends of mine have not really been paying attention to cases like this, and it is one more thing that makes me believe that most Americans don't seem to have any idea of how different the world is going to become in the next few years.
