You can see from TJ the past few years, it's like China's decisions are being informed by lines of cocaine. China has transformed their country with shabby new cities built with Third World quality, which look good from a distance.

They're so full of themselves, they've been acting like the new Emperor trying to bully their neighbors.

But when it comes to IP theft they know how truly backward they are, so they say they're still a small-child-economy not ready for big boy pants, so everyone needs to let them act naughty.

Well, which is it? Are they a coke-ed up thug or a small child?

Xi was furious with Obama calling him to the White House to see the proof the FBI had of the Chinese military participating in IP theft through the internet and essentially forcing him to sign an extradition treaty - which they don't honor.

So now the Trump administration is inflicting economic damage on both of our economies knowing it hurts China more right now.

It will be interesting to see what it takes to finally bring a resolution. In spite of my Emperor comments, Xi is still not such a complete Emperor that he can agree to terms until his military and other constituencies are hurting so badly they know it's the only choice. The pain level is not there yet.
