  1. The china side knew it months ago, as xi said in December, we'll see who blinks first! The Orange cancelled the 10 % before even enacting them... By November, he will cancel the entire 10 % on 300 B cause trade talks are " going good ". Career ender today... All we need is bad news out of HK to erase wtv gains comes from this that's the irony, inversion is almost as bad as it was before T caving... By next yr all tariffs are removed and Huawei is doing business in the US, guaranteeeeed

    I bet he cancels every bit of tariffs ...why risk bringing economies into a recession, why risk his reelection and why risk continued tensions with China, that's why China doesn't want to agree with anything the US is putting out there. They know trump will back out as the elections get closer.

    Not going to be careful with haaaaaaa and will disagree with "US consumers won't see that much increase"
    Only reason why they won't see an increase is because trump is going to fall back on all trade talks and will probably take them completely off the table as elections get closer and closer. If he really wanted the tariffs he wouldn't have backed out today, everything has completely turned around since that news came out. He knows how extreme the risks are to global economies as these trade talks threaten global growth across the world. Again China is winning this game of trade talks.

    And I think if he loses November 2020? He is going to wreak absolute HAVOC in his remaining two months.

    Mark my words. If he loses in 15 months, we will see his true nature. Bulls will be screwed.

    He would either need a miracle or total lunatic to be nominated by Dems to win in 2020. I do not see either scenario on horizon.

    Granted his victory was a total shock last time around, but not repeatable.

    Can FB and Cambridge analytics be repeatable? If so all they need is to profile and target the weakest links and they can vote a monkey into the White House. Lol.

    This was one trick pony. Similar to Leicester City win that same year. Way too many chips fell into all right places.

    Have you even bothered to watch the first two Democratic Presidential debates? A debauche.
    I cannot think of a worse policy platform that would alienate the middle class and union employees. You know, the voters who decide general elections in swing States.

    Trump avoids becoming the Grinch, but weakens trade hand with China: Russell

    President Donald Trump has inadvertently admitted that the United States no longer holds the whip hand in the ongoing trade dispute with China, after backtracking on his latest escalation of the tariff war.

    ..
    “We’re doing this for Christmas season, just in case some of the tariffs would have an impact on U.S. customers,” Trump told reporters in New Jersey.

    That statement alone makes a mockery of Trump’s long-held assertion that China is paying for the tariffs, not the U.S. consumers.

    If the U.S. public really wasn’t paying for the tariffs then logically there would have been no need to delay them, since doing so would only provide relief to China’s economy.
