(897 posts)It's all about appearances. It doesn't matter that he created a problem to "solve", or that consumers will pay 30% more than before he created the problem.
They will sell it as a win. We can obviously see it and they, Republicans, will try to distract from the truth in any way they can. And they will, easily.
Why would China accept looking weak? I suspect other than just trying to get back to business as usual, they have something else in mind. Like selling off American debt and negotiating better deals with other countries. They will use the next 90 days for positioning.
IMHO, the Felon has exposed his ass and made us weaker. Who wants to work with an unstable Country with a maniacal leader at the helm. Only our enemies that are working him. As a reward, he provides valuable information to them.
In the meantime our allies have been weakened by our betrayal and our rivals are swooping in to take advantage strategically, politically and economically.
So much for "we're number one, we're number one."
The titans of industry have been so busy trying to turn us into cheap worker bees that they lost site of needing consumers. The value of the US dollar is a balancing act but I'm concerned his actions have put us on a downward spiral. Just a layman's opinion. I hope I'm wrong.
