Sounds reasonable.

Screw this hypocrite. He should lead by example. 90% of his crass products are made overseas. He's flailing because his 'easy' trade war wasn't easy at all for the farmers and factories.

American companies should have started to look for another suppliers at least 2 years ago. Trump openly told them that the way we are dealing with China has changed 180. China doesn't want any agrmnt & wants see Trump gone. We should stand behind our president, not root for China

Donald Trump : ' FRAUD, EVASION, TAX AVOIDANCE, FINANCIAL SCANDAL, POLITICO-FINANCIAL CONNIVANCE... ARE SOCIAL CRIMES : fewer schools, fewer collective projects, less public economic sovereignty, less social cohesion... more public deficit, more social misery...MORE IMPUNITY

Vietnam, Cambodia... No, no, no, go back to Taiwan and Japan.

A very good advice.

Should that not have been the first thing to say before the fight?

How communist of the dear leader to give orders to CEOs.

What about South Korea? That's where I get my nail supplies. Oh and if you have a moment I have questions about DynCorp and their current customs contract. Given their history of human trafficking and criminal behavior. How do you know their CEO again?

Gloves are off

This is called biting the hands that feed the GOP

This wouldn't be so pathetic if Americans just opened a history book. lisettevoytko Good MAGA2020
