China has not significantly eased restrictions on rare earths exports, contrary to Washington’s expectations.
This is what it's about. Trump got outplayed like the dunce he is and thought he could rollback and pretend nothing happened. Unfortunately take-backsies are not as easy in geopolitics.
- Trump needs to realize that China is not one of his show apprentices who kiss his ass in order not to get fired.
  Now he is the apprentice, depending on vital trade from China. And once Trump has ruined his farmer base and wrecked the US economy, he will be even more dependent on foreign goods.
TACO….TACO man. He’s got to be a TACO man.
He just whines first, in an attempt to place the negative optics on the other party, when in reality the 'master negotiator' is asking for unrealistic concessions. It's a known strategy. Remember his Ukraine comments?
Oh, and anyone arguing with me is obviously a genocide supporting trump supporter making things difficult for me to continue my good work.
Sounds like Xi is dining on orange chicken tacos tonight.
- What would you expect on Orange Chicken Tacos? Lettuce and Tomato? Orange chicken is usually served with rice in the US, so rice yes/no? I am getting hungry.
  
  I would add cabbage and crunchy noodles, and some chinese peppers if you're feeling spicy.
Everything is so fucking quick and easy for this guy but every fucking time it's time to put up or shut up things get "extremely difficult". Everyone else knew that from the start...I'm sick of waiting around for this guy to catch up to basic levels of understanding like "Putin doesn't actually want peace" and "tariffs don't actually fix inflation" and "trade wars are a bit difficult to manage and you have less leverage when you start one against the entire world (including close allies) at the same time even though China was already a handful the last time we went through this with just them"
I have more faith in my local high school debate club than these absolute clowns.
Why impetus does any country have to make a 'deal' with a guy who's literally shredded the deals he previously made less than a decade ago?
He's also old as fuck. He's going to die soon, so why would anyone want a deal right now?
Why would they make a new trade deal when we are technically still under one? We just renegade on that deal and now want to create a new one? China won this trade war before Trump even was back in office
TACO on Russia, Ukraine and EU will fight it by themselves. TACO on Zionist , Gazan and good people around world will fight back. TACO on China, everyone is cheering.
So trump is telling us he himself "doesn't have the cards" then? trump tells us what happens when you don't have the cards:
"He's asking for more, just more and more and more. And he doesn't have the cards. He doesn't have the cards, so hopefully he's going to get it done," Trump said. source
- Ironic using the cards analogy when all his casinos went bankrupt. Would love to play poker with this asshole and take all his money.
  
  Best he can do is a fake check. But continuous losses right in his face would make wonders to his blood pressure.
Try this sometime: handcuff yourself to a tree in the park. Complain to anyone walking by that they put you in these cuffs and they need to let you out. If they don't listen, yell louder that you're being ganged up on.
Stupid cunt.

The Art of the TACO
Master dealmaker at work here... Fucking orange clown
Trump's idea of negotiating:
Xi: what's in it for us?
Trump: nothing
Out-maneuvered Felon TACO: "Who knew ...?"
tRaDe WaRs aRe EaSy tO WiN!
TACO gonna TACO.
Maybe if he's held on to his cards instead of burning them all, it wouldn't be so hard,, 🌮?
