Not a fan of tariffs but man you’re wrong about this.

Start?

China is 100% dependent on our consumer market.

You're Asian right? You do understand that the one thing China has bitten-on, hook, line and sinker, is the WTO and World Bank system totally dependent upon open free trade ... ESPECIALLY with the U.S. You do right?

They may be able to prop-up their currency within their own borders but their currency will lose value on the world market if they do and ..... hell, come to think of it that's great for the U.S. We win either way. If that happens and our dollar keeps getting stronger we'll buy back our debt to Chinese banks for dimes on the dollar and save trillions in the long run in interest payments on the remaining principle.

If they want to halt all military upgrading and force their citizens back to a 1965 economy model they can.

When they start? LULZ ... hell, they started before he ever pulled the trigger. Did you see his tweet to the Koch Brothers? Do you remember the backlash when he dumped the TPP and NAFTA?

The Donald could give a fat baby's arse about criticisms. The man is on a mission from God and doing the people's work.

Crazy thing is that even the people this is affecting are supporting him because most know this is the right thing to do in the long run.

God Bless Da Man!

Actually, no. With a population of over a billion people, China needs to maintain a high GDP. Why? Because it has to keep its population employed. Think about the numbers if China suddenly facing 8-10% unemployment. That is a huge number of mouths to feed. So no, they can’t withstand decades of tariffs.

Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea and the Soviet Union all thought the same thing and it ended badly for them.

They found out the hard way that the market is the market and there's no manipulating it and propping it up.

You should watch a guy on youtube who does videos called "china unsensored".

I would say he is fair on trump. He doesn't say one thing or another good or bad, but he definelty agrees with his stance on china. The dude hates china. He thinks they are a corrupt, cheating, terrible authoritarian state that is bent on its rise by stealing and destroying others.

He has mentioned several times that usually the country with a trade deficit wins trade wars. China will undoubtedly lose this. It will take a while, but not decades.
