Nice leftist spin, Business Insider. It’s not a “Trump trade war”... it’s a China trade war, started by them decades ago. Trump just happens to be the first US President who has the balls to retaliate to their inequitable trade practices and stealing of intellectual property.

Funny thing is that global does not equal USA

It was obvious from the start that this was a bad idea. Such ideas entered US into a depression. Trump wants to repeat?
