    look at NAFTA 2 -the auto parts content provision. It's designed to keep out Chinese parts supply chains

    Trump has made sure that the US Navy regularly maintains the right to proceed through international waters despite severe harassment from the Chinese. Do you think Kameltoe, Fauxcohontas or Bernie Saunders would do that? Of course they fucking wouldn't, they'd just roll over and get arse raped by them.

    trump like everything else, he has been back & fourth on it. It is a bargaining chip......... SO watch what you say about them, for the right price trump just might forget about all that & declare victory & all those huawei products will be save, cause he says so..........

    US navy plans major show of strength in South China Sea as warning to Beijing
    https://www.scmp.com/news/china/mili...na-sea-warning
    The United States Pacific Fleet has drawn up a plan for a major show of force as a warning to China that will indicate its determination to counter Beijing’s military activity, it was reported on Thursday amid rising tension over the disputed South China Sea.

    The plan would see planes and ships passing close to Chinese-claimed waters in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait in a freedom of navigation operation, CNN reported, citing several unnamed US defence officials.

    The proposal means US ships and aircraft will be operating close to Chinese forces and is expected to trigger a strong reaction from Beijing.
    US, Chinese warships within metres of collision in South China Sea

    China’s defence ministry did not immediately comment on the report, but a Chinese diplomatic observer said that by expanding its operations from the South China Sea to the Taiwan Strait the US was escalating the confrontation.

    Beijing has previously criticised freedom of navigation operations by the US in the South China Sea as an infringement of its territorial sovereignty.

    Tensions are running high between the US and Chinese militaries over the disputed waters, parts of which are also claimed by the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan.

    On Sunday, a Chinese destroyer nearly collided with the USS Decatur, which was carrying out a freedom of navigation operation and sailing close to the China-claimed Gaven Reef.

    Why would you want Trump to lose the fight against other nations unfair trade practices?

    We won't be entering a recession anytime soon. What signs have you seen that indicate a recession is imminent? Wouldn't it make you lefties happy if Trump loses?

    Are you wishing for a recession knowing that Trump will win without one?

    You criticize American politicians for what you think they would do/not do-why don't you tell us what your country will do??
