How much did it hurt for CNN to type that out? Because I have been assured that Trump had caved, was caving, in the process of caving, and has reversed his stance on China multiple times on this board. In fact, the OT couldnt race over to here fast enough to gloat


quote:

Hong Kong CNN — China appears to have quietly rolled back retaliatory tariffs of 125%, according to details provided to CNN on Friday by three import agencies in the southern technology hub of Shenzhen, as Beijing tries to soften the blow of an ongoing trade war on its all-important tech industry.

This is from Chinese sources, too. Even better
quote:

But these exemptions suggest it needs to roll back some levies on crucial items that it cannot make at home or source elsewhere. Besides semiconductors, China has decided to grant exemptions on some aircraft parts, including engines and landing gear, according to an aviation executive.

Wow, the CCP is caving all over the place
quote:

A spokesperson for China’s Foreign Ministry said he was not familiar with the situation, when asked about the exemptions at a regular news conference Friday. CNN has reached out to the Chinese Commerce Ministry for comment.

Chen Shaoling, a manager at Zhengnenliang Supply Chain, an import agency, told CNN that she found out on Thursday that tariffs on eight kinds of integrated circuits, covering most semiconductors except for memory chips, had been waived to zero. The discovery was made during a routine custom clearance for her customers, she added. “We only found out after we filed the declaration — without doing that, we wouldn’t have known,” Chen said. “The news is now spreading like wildfire.”

They arent even admitting to it. I mean a 0% tariff and nobody owns up to it

This is so much like Covid.

It weeds the men from the boys and those that talk tough vs those that ARE tough.

Panicans and Covidians are the same.

It's almost like Trump knows what the frick he is doing!

shite, you'd think with what he did pre-COVID would be enough to open most eyes, but some are just too blind to see. I never had a doubt that Trump would win this tariff battle......just waiting on MSNBC and CNN to tell me how this is all bad.

“They’re exempt from the reciprocal tariffs but they’re included in the semiconductor tariffs, which are coming in a month,” Lutnick told ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday.

I did; still do. Trump has the bigger stick, but Xi has the more compliant population. I felt that Trump would probably prevail, but it could fizzle out, which would be a win for Xi.

We still don’t know how this will go. If Trump ends with a tariff situation that is better for America, but not really materially so, that could be a win for Xi, because he is winning the status quo ante. What would determine that is the rate at which American companies were decoupling from China. That’s as big a deal as the relative tariff rates.

Does he though? How many stood up against the covid shot? how many were compliant with masks and other stupid measures taken?

Americans are very compliant. You can tax them to poverty and they will not revolt

People that run govt and businesses are looking at the next quarter results. If they can buy themselves a month they survive another quarter. They aren’t all Bezos musk and buffet working 2 years ahead of everyone else.

China won. China always wins.
