There is nothing "weak" about the malleable target of plainly stating the goal of the policy

No. That's not what I said

I said the plainly stated goal of the policy. Not your potential echo chamber interpretation of that goal.

Is this trade war to:

1. Bring jobs back
2. Create "fair trade" by having other countries lower tariffs
3. Generate revenue to replace the income tax

Those are the 3 most common goals. They cannot all co-exist, in fact, they may not all be able to even overlap, really. There has to be one goal, so which is it?

South Africa, already in diplomatic conflict with Trump over its affirmative action laws


"Affirmative action" is a weird way to say genocide and theft.

Why would a country offer concessions when Trump could change his mind at any moment.

No, it is #4 which is to lower the manufacturing output of China spread to other nations and away from our economic and potential military adversary.
