    blather. the whole idea of getting a bi-lateral trade agreement with China instead of useless complaints to the WTO is "thinking long term"

    Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said Wednesday the decision to at least temporarily shield certain Chinese imports from tariffs was not a trade concession to Beijing, dimming hope for a quick deal to defuse tensions.

    Ross instead said on CNBC that the Trump administration was attempting to protect American consumers from the effects of tariffs, adding that "nobody wants to take any chance of disrupting the Christmas season." The move appeared to be met with little progress on key disputes and signaled a less defiant stance from the Trump administration.

    "The US-China tariff war has reached a stalemate, or even more accurately, fallen into purgatory," said Scott Kennedy, a Center for Strategic and International Studies adviser who analyzes the Chinese economy. "The two sides are now locked in a conversation of increasing irrelevance, on individual tariff lines and goods purchases."

    Kennedy added that focus has shifted away from the structural reforms and issues raised last year following a Section 301 investigation, which the yearlong dispute stemmed from.

    US officials found that China had engaged in practices that undermine American business, such as the forced transfer of foreign technology and intellectual property theft. The Trump administration has also struggled to win concessions on a mechanism to enforce any agreement with China.

    Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin spoke with their Chinese counterparts shortly before the US announced it would rein in tariffs. The USTR Office said another phone call would take place toward the end of August, while spokespeople did not respond to questions about what issues were discussed or up for discussion.

    The Trump administration still plans to levy tariffs this September on about half of the products that had been originally specified,

    You know what I do - what most humans do - if I genuinely think someone is boring, tedious, inarticulate, or inconsequential? I ignore them, bypass them, hardly ever read them, and certainly do not write to them.
    Yes, yes, and yes. I have quite a few of them on ignore for years, and they still feel the need to quote me.

    Fascinating though, is that he just admitted to lying about who pays tariffs, and doesn't even realize it.

    He'll watch the news, realize that he's a moron, and then go on a Twitter offensive.
