The European Union will not decouple from the Chinese economy as a condition for reaching a trade deal with Donald Trump’s administration, the European Commission said on Tuesday amid reports that the White House has asked countries to do exactly that.
Logic correct: “Donald Trump’s administration” isn’t a substitution for “Chinese economy”.
We should start making a list of really important USA exports (I bet that list won’t be long) and search for alternatives. The USA needs some time alone. 2-3 decades. To contemplate. And think.
2-3 decades isn’t enough to be honest.
As an American we need time to:
Don’t forget Patriotism.
Nah patriotism is fine, its the ‘I want to make my country better’ attitude, nationalism is the ‘my country is already the best’ one.
I dunno man, saluting to your flag each and every day, flying it high… I think it messes with your head and it results in you being proud of how your country currently is.
I love this comic.
Chinese bureaucracy appears to be stable and consistent when adhering to policy over the span of decades.
Trump’s administration appears incapable of setting a policy that survives a holiday weekend.
What’s crazy is that the domestic business community and their pets in the national legislature are content to let Trump run a wrecking ball through the last 80 years of delicately assembled and refined trading partnerships. America truly is a madhouse.
Lot of that already happening at the multi-national level. We’re seeing a real bifrication of supply chains as the US grows openly hostile towards international trade. And Chinese business leaders seem eager to fill the gap.
However long it takes, sure, but rather not decades if you ask me.
