Hi there PJR,......Good to hear your opinions.....

.Let's wait and see
In the meanwhile,.....what do you suggest for the American farmers? There is no turning back the crop that has already been planted.

Cancelled orders for Boeing Aircraft , besides being bad for Boeing, opens up up the market to Airbus, and Embraer of Brazil. And it buys time for China's airframe producers..

Markets can be lost quickly, due to a politicians whim ....but recovery takes some time. Just like stocks ....a 6% sell off takes only a few days , but recovery takes weeks or months.

no politician from either party has been able to successfully remedy our trade deficits
That is correct.....but consider that our biggest exports to china are bulk goods (Soybeans, Gasoline, Natural Gas, and automobiles. These are easy to penalize by China.. But China exports thousands of minor items
that cannot be quickly resourced. (As per Walmart).

Perhaps a businessman's approach will yield better results
Government is not a business.....its beholden to the voters that put them in office.

Trumps approval rating hangs between 40 and 43% percent, his disapproval rating is about 52%.
Time is not on his side.
