anything is possible, and we laymen may never know the truth. but notice Trump laid out exactly why he had to put on the $250b, yet there is no direct response on the reneg from the China side..
so? growing from 400m to what.. 5b? real net worth hard to value I guess because of the RE holdings... that is no small success.. not to mention the base was much smaller than 400m as he started in RE long before the inheritance. and just to save people's time... anyone wants to bring up the 6 bankrupcies or the $1b loss on the tax return, please educate oneself on corporate structuring, limited liability, real estate tax write off... all that stuff, otherwise one'd just sound like another clueless guy brain washed by the left media.
but regardless... I think if the true goal is to MAGA and establish firmly the US dominance, then backing out or not doesn't matter.. the deal has to make sure China is contained... that's the bottom line.. 'Contained' means from its plans to expand to other continents economically and militarily, and stealing IPs to compete with the west on high tech industries.
