China Vs. Fatboy

[ideologyhunter]

What are the factors that will decide Trump's trade war with China? They haven't bought soybeans off us in 8 months and seem to have found plenty on the world market. I think they've made the calculation that Trump will be defeated in another year & a half, and that any kind of hit they're taking (since we all know that "largely" they are paying the tariffs, right? At least, many people are saying that...) will be temporary -- and that they'll be in a stronger position on the other side.

You'll know China is serious when they find reason to rescind Ivanka's trademarks...

I think Trump needs a trade deal more than the Chinese. So all they have to do is not make one.

Fatboy? I am guessing ideologyhunter would be among the first to yell "misogyny" if anybody called Hillary "fatgirl" had she won in 2016 ...

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

Poor Derec.

You have not yet had a female president. Wait till you have one and then bring this all back up.

I thought "Fatboy" was Kim.
What happened to "Dotard"?

 

[ideologyhunter]

FATBOY it is. Trump deserves EXACTLY what he hands out to others. No respect and in the place of respect, taunting nicknames.

I prefer China vs Fat Dotard Boy.

 

[ideologyhunter]

Yeah, dotard has a quaint, authoritative weight to it -- you can imagine Charles Laughton calling someone a heinous dotard.
