[zectech]

Banning all Hollywood movies and shutting down all Starbucks outlet in China can be an option. If Trump wants to play, see who will bleed to death first.

Dump dollars, dump treasury notes, and buy PMs - gold, silver, platinum.

What makes you think next President is changing track ?

Because as the cold trade war becomes a hot one Americans will start to feel the pain beyond that of soy bean farmers. trump repeatedly says China is paying the tariffs. Anyone with a basic knowledge of economics knows the end consumer ends up paying the tariff. Think of all the things labelled made in China add 25% to the price, give it a year and see how happy people are with trumps approach.
The free trade proponents in the Republican party don't like it, Business doesn't like it and if the Dem develop half a brain they will realise that promoting trade would be in their benefit, though I admit new ideas to political parties are like mosquitoes on an elephant.

Well, can't blame on others. CEOs of US MNCs should be the ones to hang. They don't make much in the US anymore.
