- inverted_flag 2y agoI think he genuinely thought China would immediately cave and he could score an easy deal off of them.

- nabla9 2y agoAs predicted. >Trump will cave within 1-2 weeks is my prediction. He will declare losing as winning and that will be it. Tariffs will return to more manageable levels. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43656307 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43656307
- cauesmelo 2y agoLooking forward to the next chapters. Let's see if Trump dropping some of the tarrifs will make China drop some too.

- fjfaase 2y agoI wonder if China will drop its restrictions, such as on the export of rare metals, even if he would lower the tarrifs to zero.
- rsynnott 2y agoVery much declaring victory while admitting defeat, here. Did anyone ever suggest it would be zero, Donald? Was it zero before?
