Apparently trump dropped the fentanyl tariff on china to 10%.

China to begin buying soy beans.

China delays restrictions on rare earth for a year but maintains
that very strong leverage.

Nexperia situation still critical.

Isn't it wonderful.

No one seems to remember that before his tariffs the Chinese were buying more soy beans than after the agreement, and other relations weren't a problem, but his tariffs created a problem and now he's solved them. Isn't that great. Create chaos, then solve it and you're a hero.

I wonder what all the hospitality industry thinks as many places that would have had lots of Canadian guests who aren't coming. The least Trump should have offered them is every Providence becoming a State. Of course that would mean a lot more Democratic legislators, he couldn't stand that, perhaps 2 Senators and one representative would do it for them.

As a lifetime L.A. residence the Dodger's are my team, but if they lose, Trump will find a way to blame Biden.

It's time for Congress to take control and take some of Trump's toys away. Of course his most dangerous toy is the nuclear football and only the President is entitled to that one. He must be impeached to take that toy away.
