So, if it hasn't been reported yet, it hasn't happened?
...

"Since when do victims of bullying report it? Mostly they just give up their lunch money, go hungry, and hunker down hoping that the bully doesn't notice them for another round. That's why bullying is so effective."
Trump has these demands on the table AFAIK to open more intensive negotiations with China:

1. Retract previous tariffs, subject to a threat of adding an additional 50% tariff if China doesn't comply.
2. He wants China to negotiate in good faith with the US to reduce the US trade deficit with China. This comes across to me, at least, as saying, "We want an even starting point for negotiations."

3. He is demanding China STOP sending fentanyl and its precursors here to poison our people.

Please explain to me how this is "bullying"? These are entirely reasonable asks before entering into negotiations.
