udemzyudex:You dey mind people. Chinese people are not Nigerians that are docile, long-suffering and life loving . If factories start closing and people start to lose jobs in China...na revolution be that. Chinese government won't want that. Past American presidents empowered China economically by their policies. But Trump is trying to change that... |

Thunderfayamods:It’s a long story but let me give you a hint. Back in the late 80s and early 90s the world was scared that the population explosion in China could be a big problem if the economic situation doesn’t improve fast . Then they all agreed “ west” ,’with Clinton being the chief instigator ‘ that they are going to stop isolating China and admit them into the WTO and give them the ‘developing economy’ status and then allow them to produce all the little things that US don’t want to produce eg. pins, needles , towels and stuff like that If you are with the WTO as a developing economic it means you can ship to a member state at a 25% tariff and boom China rode on that to become second world economy until 2016 when Trump cancelled that deal. Think about it China has been rode on the ‘ under developing economy’ umbrella to feed fat up until 2016 . How can the second largest economy in the world still be enjoying the benefit reserves for underdeveloped economies like Nigeria and Angola. Now you see why Trump made Ngozi Okonjo Iweala Useless before his tariff onslaught? I don’t have much time and pleas pardon my grammar but you can research more on this. Trump getting elected has cost me a fortune. But I’m not one of those that consider him an idiot, he’s in fact smarter than an average American president. |

Righteousness2:Egbon this is not a Bible class Trump has failed woefully on this did you know the meaning of fighting someone who doesn't give a fvck about your existence whereby it even take you to be the one replying your self. I can bet with my left balls that Xi won't give a fvck even if the tarrif is 1000% ![]() |

hosemujica:You sounded so dumb. When was the last time you saw any product made in the US? Wether in Nigeria, Asia, Europe, Oceania and everywhere. Apart from Coca cola and few tech companies the US is dead. Their last global cultural export Michael Jackson died in 2009 and now every culture has deserted the US music and films. Forget US, common pen made in the US will cost over #7000 and who will buy it? |

Trump will kill American economy before he leaves. About 70% of goods entering America come from China . There was a day I entered Walmart. Almost everything I saw was made in China. I read earlier today in the foreign news that madam Christine Lagard is looking for an alternative to visa,master card and PayPal for the EU . L'obatan. Right now, tesla car sales in Europe has dropped drastically while most us stocks are on the downward trend. There are protests everywhere in the usa mainly by those who.voted him. He could be impeached before his tenure ends.The road will be very long. We're watching with keen interest from this side. My annual membership subscription that used to be 190USD is now 345usd |

I find it weird that American products get tarrffed like crazy but when it comes from China it’s so little to pay in tariff. It makes it seem like China has cheap goods and USA has expensive goods |

Adakintroy:The way you reason, naa waa China is the reason African Nations are smiling. Economically, is that not enough? If you like hate China, but African, Asian and Latin American presidents will depend on China for survival |

In the US ... it is difficult to find any product made in the US ...except for foods and drinks. Almost everything is made in China. Jack up the tariffs the price of almost everything will raised for consumers. With reduced spending power the economy will slow down a whole lot. Even the blind can already see this happening. Raise tariffs again it will be even worse. Already...people are not smiling ... regardless of Party affiliation... and are already taking to the streets in massive demonstrations. Own a Tesla? ... fear of vandalism be your friend. Trump is literally destroying America ... tearing down institutions... disregarding the Constitution... the Champion of Democracy is a dictator ...how ironic. |

blowjohn:In your little mind. China is laughing heartily right now because the village idiot has finally brought US to it's knees. Stock prices are plummetting fast and a recession is almost unavoidable. Even Republican senators are becoming jittery, foolish Elon Musk is beginning to speak against the tariff🤣🤣. Die hard MAGAs are shitting in their pants too |

Aside Canada, it seems China has given Trump the middle finger. I feel sorry for US consumers. Prices are going to jump sky high. |

Dittodat:you guys don’t understand. There have been tariffs on American goods for years only now that America wants to reciprocate they are complaining. Trump plans to keep America higher above other countries. |

OkpaNsukkaisBae:He thinks China is like Africa that goes into panic mode, immediately the US threatens. Him never accept say China don dey too advanced for those type of shits. They have long been preparing for these confrontations and they have your balls in their hands. China handles alot of US manufacturing and can deal a deadly blow on the US. We shall see who gets knocked out first in this trades battle. |

Trump definitely not the best choice but with kamala as president there would have been war by now with Russia. Even I regret supporting Trump with all this useless Tariff. Even your fellow christians who voted for you would begin to regret. Making life difficult for them. You are a billionaire in dollars... and certainly don't understand what people are going through all over the world. If he continues like this, I won't mind wishing that his presidency being imploded - heavy protests then impeachment. |

China currency will fall if their output is questioned, china ain't in armoury market like America. They need America more than American needs them, American investment in Taiwan will destabilize china. So I encourage Canada to start consuming china's product let's see |
