Trump Hardball With China Just Trump Getting Kicked Hard In The Balls By China

[Zorro]

Dude, they're not going to call you.

The stock market paused its freefall on Tuesday after Art O’Deal said he was not going to “play hardball” with China, insisting that he was in contact with China “every day” and that tariffs “will come down substantially.” But, two days later, in spite of rumors that they could go down to 35 to 65 percent (which is still insane and economy-wrecking) his 145 percent tariff has still not come down. And the only “hardball” is Trump getting kicked in the balls, hard. By China!

Within hours of Trump’s Oval Office press conference, China said it was FAKE NEWS, 假新闻, they had not been talking to Trump at all, and a spokesman re-iterated that they plan to “fight until the end.” Because guess who manufactures and prints all the cards Trump claims to be holding?

Then today, Trump insisted that he WAS TOO talking to China, but he can’t tell you with whom, it’s a big secret!

“Well, they had a meeting this morning, so I can't tell you. It doesn't matter who 'they' is. We may reveal it later, but they had meetings this morning, and we've been meeting with China.”
