China is not even picking up their call...

last time I checked, china has not come back to the lol

[ndih]

Mexico should look elsewhere for people who want to trade with them, to sustain their economy. I think china is much more stable and reliable than Trumps US.

[spectrallim]

LOL last checked, China and Russia are at the new table. All them avocados are going to China.

[jjw]

I can’t wait for Trump to start putting tariffs on tariffs.

[zzlee]

Diplomatically, China has to do it due diligence to entertain US and show the world who is throwing his tantrum. That is why China tried to come to the table.

This American take kindness as a sign of weakness.

Why does it have to be that for US to win China must lose mentality??? There are enough markets in the world for both countries to thrive economically, there is enough for everybody in world to share on wealth of this world. America is a super-power and China is already a super-power too.. its not mutually exclusive both countries can be the super-power and both countries can and will benefit from that.
