Another day, another win for the United States. Who knew that winning would be so much fun. If Democrats had any intelligence, they would learn that winning is not spelled “whining”. Let us hope that the Trump Great Awakening to the Deep State’s treason will end with justice. Let us also hope that the other side keeps underestimating the deplorable half of the country.

China Quietly Approaches US To De-escalate Trade War
As fears about an escalating trade war have continued to hammer stocks on Thursday, now that Daimler has become the first company to slash guidance blaming protectionism as the cause (who knows what the real cause is), Market News International (MNI) reported that Chinese trade officials have “quietly” approached the US to find a way to minimize punitive tariffs on Chinese goods.
The news comes after China again reiterated that it would retaliate if President Trump slaps 10% tariffs on some $200 billion in Chinese goods, something he threatened to do earlier this week. In its latest communique, China said it is “fully prepared” to respond to any new list of US tariffs, according to a spokesman for the Commerce Industry, who added that China will use “a combination of quantitative and qualitative measures” to strike back at the US. Meanwhile, India followed in the European Union’s footsteps by raising tariffs on a slew of items, including walnuts, almonds, boric acid, apples, diagnostic reagents and some hot-rolled coil products.
