    My, how you have reversed yourself since March 2020!
    the new era was the idea -and it was working fine until the Wu-Flu was unleashed on the world..
    That blew up all negotiations

    Migrants were surging at the border 9 months ago, so why are you lying about it being a problem Biden caused?

    LMAO!

    So are a part of the Trade negotiations to lavish praise on China after doing the horrible trade deal that cost at least $30B in welfare for farmer trash whose businesses your tariffs ruined?

    nope. any surge didn;t matter. They weren't allowed in while processing asylum claims

    meaning no catch and release
    meaning no COVID express from central America
    meaning an orderly immigration process

    tariffs did not cost US consumers -there was no increase in inflation from Chinese goods
    they were absorbed for the most part by importers.

    So this was an issue before Biden, then, that Trump didn't solve.

    There was nothing orderly about Trump's immigration process, hence the kidnapped children.

    No they weren't. We had to extend a $30B lifeline to farmer trash.

    Because Chinese people don't vote in American elections. What a dumb question.

    Too stupid to know that Trump would destroy their business...voted for Trump...saw tariffs increase which killed their business...got a $30B bailout to rescue the businesses that were ruined by the very tariffs and Trade War they all supported.

    So yeah...trash.

    No, he wasn't.

    Nothing short of a disaster.

    Dotard cost the US taxpayer $48 billion, bailing out farmers because of his tariffs.

    Tariffs are OK if you have a replacement customer or supply source.

    Dotard didn't line up anything.

    Then turns around and signs a bi-lateral trade deal, INCREASING trade with China.

    BTW, implementing tariffs doesn't make you an anti-globalist.

    on having a replacement lined before you can do a tariff, that's ridiculous. you have to give time for the market to react, for someone to see the new market and decide thay can enter. (can I enter? yes you may) making the state have something lined up is too much central planning and fascism. it's a choke point.

    bailing out famers in a trade war is smart. protecting food production is the time for public private partnership.

    Implementing tariffs doesn't make the country anti-globalist.

    It's punishment for a policy or trade infractions.

    Biden isn't an anti-globalist, he wants to be in the Paris climate accords, which I could give a fuck about the climate, it's the pollution I do care about, not just air.

    Biden is looking to get back into the TPP, which could reduce our trade deficit with China, hopefully.
