    can we just use neutral language... words like 'moron' can actually hurt your street credit because they make you sound angry and brain washed.... how did a 'moron' find success in biz/entertainment/politics...

    you can forget about 'cooperation' from China... it's been one-way street for 20 years in terms of IP transfer.

    and if it happens that this time China were to provide help, and if this is a small price to pay to plug up all the other IP leaks, then sure it's a worthy price to pay.

    I can’t hardly believe it. Someone who understands Mr T AND they are on ET. Wow! Now that is progressive! If the regressives don’t achieve a bonafide impeachment he will win again with a landslide.. I repeat. A landslide. They are trembling in their boots. Many tears will be shed. Students will need more comfort dogs to help with the emotional trauma of losing...AGAIN.

    not gonna happen; not under this "stable genius" (to use better terminology lest I risk be labeled "angry") anyway:
    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/25/tru...ng-phase-one-of-china-trade-deal-sources.html

    Trump advisor Peter Navarro fighting ‘Phase One’ of China trade deal, sources say
    • As negotiators work to flesh out the “Phase One” trade deal President Donald Trump and China’s President Xi Jinping are expected to sign next month, trade hawk Peter Navarro has been fighting the deal behind the scenes, according to three people close to the talks.
    • Navarro has taken particular issue with the shelving of certain protections for intellectual property and technology that appeared in earlier versions of the deal, according to these three sources.
    • So far, Navarro’s effort has been unsuccessful. “He’s been agitating to drive a harder line” since the partial deal was announced, said one former administration official. “But he’s alone on this one.”

    impeachment for what... it can't even get out of the House.

    why do people hang on to a losing party with losing ideologies... it's like hanging on to a losing trade and hoping it turns around..

    the culprit is the ego.... cutting a losing trade hurts it... so does admitting that one has been brainwashed by the fake media.... letting go of it is the path to the promise land lol.... it's never too later... come on to the Trump train, the next 5 years will be far better time than the last 3 lol...

    ok so?

    it's a complex deal and just be patient and let the negotiators work it out... the potential tariff has put tremendous pressure on China which is why they came back to the table this month.



    just come over already, life will be much better when you get on the winning team.... otherwise it will be 5 more years of desperately finding any straw to hang on to lol.

    So your whole premise of USA being tough on China IP theft is going up in smoke for a cheap win.

    if you keep taking it in from the fake news there is no hope... because in their eyes Trump can do nothing right... so it's a biz negotiation, there is always give and take... pls read his 'art of deal'. biz deals are complex, and the China deal is sure more so than the hundreds of real estate deals he did before... and in the office he also needs to balance public opinion.

    as someone born and lived first half of my life in China, I deeply appreciate the American way of critical thinking and openly criticize every move of public official... as this is almost zero-tolerance in China now.... but on the other hand this can get excessive... after all you and I we are small time traders chatting away on a matter-nothing forum.... gotta give some credit to someone who has had so much success in life and all areas he's touched..

    'stable genius' is actually very accurate description... there is no doubt on the genius part with his track record thru life... the stable part is also proven by the past 3 years of achievements during non-stop bombardment from his political enemies... the energy level and the mental fortitude for a 73 year old is truly amazing and I for one can only hope I have half his energy when I am 73.

    Calls me brainwashed and angry, expects me to take the word of a serial liar and con man "just because" all the while ragging on "fake news" reporting on Trump's top most adviser on China. Then asks me to read a book penned by someone other than the guy he praises.

    As someone who has lived half his life in urban America, I can appreciate the hustle, and can spot a low rent one a mile away.

    lol hustle... what do I stand to gain on this...

    and what is the hurt to test ride the Trump train.... I suspect many probably have already done so and are now permanent riders lol...... it's certainly better to be on the winning team!
