Trump's approach on trade is a departure from US tradition, says Bill Daley

Former Commerce Secretary Bill Daley, who also served as special counsel to President Clinton on NAFTA related issues and as White House chief of staff under President Obama, join "Squawk Box" to discuss the latest developments on the trade front.

See, still back to the same question, the way they operate.. if they don’t operate the way you want them to, they are WRONG... what kind of psychology is this?

The news man basically told the guy not to say that Trump is right on camera lol, for his own good in other words. What's going on?

Trade is trade and no one should be able to dictate terms.

Look at the legislation being approved in the background while we are distracted by this trade garbage. A ll in the name of getting China to restructure their economy so they dont surpass the US and trying to give the US corporations free reign over the largest population of consumers in the world

Funny that German found 10 security issues on Cisco's device but did not find any on Huawei's.

just ordered a p30 Pro: best phone in the market,

If Huawei spies on its clients, what does Facebook do? What's the difference between spying and keeping private data?

Joe is not a democrat by traditional definition. Trump is not even a public servant by any definition. Both of these candidates are a joke and should not be candidates for US president.

It’s not a trade fight. Once people figure that out they’ll understand what we’re up against.

I only watch Fast Money. At least they stay away from politics as much as possible. These turds are no different than political news stations.

Becky is the exception though. She’s at least discrete about her leanings.

The WTO rules is written by the US, is not a coincidence that any wrong doing is easily fix, obviously in the previous years the US is benefit from this, but is not working for the US as much, is more for the Chinese.

Good balanced informative analysis of the China trade situation with China by Daley, he grudgingly admits that Trump is taking the right course in this, he even admits that previous Democrats approach or lack of approach has absolutely failed to resolve this .... then he actually criticizes Trump's re-election because why? He says the election is "about himself"... what does that mean? He just finished saying that Trump is taking the right trade approach.... and yet it's all about himself? He just finished saying that Trump is about making a positive change in trade (and the economy), , , , I don't understand this contradiction.... What? Joe Biden would negotiate with China? Biden has taken a $1.5 billion bribe from China to treat China favorably, and Daley thinks that Biden will negotiate with China in America's interest?> He's a turncoat... just out to enrich himself and make ordinary Americans poorer....

Smart woman, she is great, and very smart, knowledgeable and sensible. Also saw her when interviewing other people, she is very interesting.

Don't force a cat to bark. It won't work.

LET YOUR GUEST TALK. Only Becky should be on that set.

The central pillar of the post Cold War globalized economy is the assumption that the US is the world's unrivaled military hegemon. Although I disagree in principle, it is technically possible for nations to completely specialize in a world of perpetual peace. This is absolutely not the case in a world of great power competition. One nation cannot cede heavy industry to a peer competitor in favor of
finance, entertainment, etc. when war remains a possibility– however remote. In a multipolar world, a national industrial policy is a matter of national security.

Tariffs on all imports is how this country started in trade.

[lawrencesullivan]

"possibility for that" is now the basis for action??? almost all WTO cases have ruled in US favor. Trying to force change in China is a losing proposition and will only cause problems as foreign pressure is widely perceived as inappropriate. Let the forces of science and technology drive change both there and here!!!

[codyrafferty]

If 2020 is a yes or no vote on Trump consider me a YES. My finances have never been better and I remember how shit they were from 2008-2016

[susannachang]

why must political changes? why not Saudi Arab political change? two system requirements!
