Trump starts, loses, trade war

President Trump, in an attempt to appear reasonable in the midst of the impeachment proceedings, backed down from his threat to impose $160 billion a year tariffs on Chinese-made goods.  He also agreed to reduce tariffs he had already imposed on Chinese goods.  


Trump, in his usual lying mode, called the agreement a win.  It wasn’t.  It also emboldened Chinese hardliners who held firm.  They have Trump’s number.  They ate Trump’s lunch.  Trump is a loser.
