Chang has been a huge trade war hawk appearing on several Fox shows.

quote:

"In short, Trump's actions, as he detailed them at the Osaka press conference, were nothing short of extraordinary, apparently dropping actions to further American national security in order to obtain China’s purchase of primary products," Chang wrote in an opinion piece for the Beast. !


quote:

"The American president may eventually say he did not do that, but it is clear that Xi Jinping has just shown the world who's boss by forcing his American counterpart to accede to his widely publicized demands." Read Newsmax: Gordon Chang: 'Trump Just Surrendered to China' Urgent: Do you approve of Pres. Trump’s job performance? Vote Here Now!


I think he got the Chinese back to the talks after running them off in April and that is a good thing.

Chang is sort of a hero of the trade war proponents and for him to criticize Trump is a pretty big departure from his normal tone.

I think Trump realizes Xi is his best chance for a lasting substantive deal with China and considering how weakened Xi has been domestically, Trump is helping to prop him up with a "win".

The fact you brought this here tells me it is hyperbolic and doesn’t describe what happened accurately. You are pretty dishonest.

Just watch and learn. Stop taking Trumps extreme positions as what he is trying to attain. He always overdoes everything in order to meet at a compromise close to what he wants.

Keep in mind that Trump created the ammo by which he is using as leverage to negotiate with China. In the past we would have given our own arse to be where we are.

When are you going to realize that you’ve proven yourself biased and dishonest countless times, and this means everything you post anymore tells us all the truth is much more likely the opposite of whatever bullshite you’re contending?

We’re all to the point of knowing Trump has done something wonderful and great for the US simply because you’re complaining and trashing it.

If only every other TDS afflicted nutjob could afford an indirect benefit like this.

In other words, taking a play out of the Democrats playbook (take an extreme left position, thereby making the "compromise" to the left of center)

The guy until now has been all over the cable networks as a Trump cheerleader.

Talk about shooting the messenger

Any trade war quote about China that isnt from Lighthizer or Mnuchin I automatically downvote because that person has a high probability of not knowing just what the frick is going on.

Lighthizer or Mnuchin
and Kudlow are the reasonable smart guys in the White House on trade.

Ross is smart but somewhat shady and a democrat.

Navarro is not so smart, somewhat shady and a failed democrat with a history of railing against conservatives. He is a Bannon guy too.

It will be timed to be around the 2020 election...maybe with the help of the fed.

So it seems DJT is not a narrow minded trade warhawk according to Chang.
