Tell me, how come that in this case I believe in what China says without even checking anything? Why is it so easy to believe that Trump lies? Hmm?
Because Trump's motivation to lie is clear here. China on the other hand has no reason to lie about negotiating.
Because he lies a lot. He is full of BS.
And there have been other reports of diplomats coming forward to negotiate the tariffs with the US and leave without a deal because the US didn't have anything to discuss and/or didn't bring the people with the authority to make a deal.
Apparently when Japan asked what exactly the US wanted out of a trade deal, they couldn't get a straight answer.
I was thinking the same thing. I would doubt almost any other report of china saying something different than another nation, but when trump is involved, they’re somehow the more credible source.
And thus we see the power of financialization be laid low by the power of real production
trump "doesn't have the cards", to use his type of speech.
Were can I get a browser addon to autoreplace any "Trump says ." with "Trump lies again." (no I don't even care about what this time...)?
But they're talking about talking which is like the father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate of tariff discussions.
They have concepts of talking.
But what does that make ~~us~~ the talks?
Absolutely nothing.
