Predictable, when you take the ten count on content resort to the GIF’s, tweets, and internet memes

No one is cheering China, just noting the facts, Trump pissing off former allies and his tariff idiocy has open up new markets for China, which they are taking advantage of, just the facts

And talking about lapping up, read your own post

You think suddenly people all over the world want China's shit? Why don't you see if you can figure out why and how you're being exploited? The article is written by an idiot. Actually, the writer knows he's writing garbage, but it's guaranteed clicks from TDS suffering morons, and that's big business. I think I'll just let you believe it for a little while. Maybe you'll be a bit more tolerable by any poor bastards that have to deal with you, if you ever leave the basement. Anyone you think Trump is piss off is just another dumbass libtard like yourself, how about a name.

Yep our trade deficit got exponentially worse during the Biden administration.

Indeed, it’s being corrected, as we speak.

Yep. Trump's original tariffing of just about every country that mattered got all these countries to start relying less on trade with the U.S. and more on trade with each other. A good article I just read on the subject:

Trump's tariffs are uniting China, Europe, Japan, South Korea, & ASEAN against the US

Donald Trump's tariff threats and trade war are uniting much of the world against the United States. China is deepening economic cooperation with Europe, Japan, South Korea, & Southeast Asia (ASEAN).

Be it “shit” or not, yes, nations are finding it easier to negotiate trade agreements with China than the U.S., especially our traditional allies that Trump pissed off, you might not have learned it in school, but China is a huge market

The rest of your post is the usual same lame AM talk radio bullshit

You’re too clueless. What, you think everyone’s ditching U.S. goods to shop at China’s yard sale? Hilarious. I’m baffled by whatever’s rattling in your head. “China’s a huge market” no kidding Captain Obvious, but we’ve been locked out for decades, hence the whole trade brawl, genius.

Ever try selling in China? Chat with someone who has? Pause 'The View' and Google the nightmare American businesses face with joint ventures, red tape, and IP theft galore. If you paused being a reflex anti-Trump parrot, you’d get why this fight matters.

Your loophole theory? Pure fiction. I already explained the export spike: it’s pre-tariff hoarding, not some master plan. China’s economy is tanking with property sector down 30% of GDP, consumer spending at 40%. They need our market way more than we need theirs. Five minutes outside your echo chamber would prove it. Only a dumbass fool misses who holds the leverage and thank God Trump’s wielding it to fix our gigantic trade gap.

A result that any educated person could foresee.

“China’s buoyant trade data”​

“China’s exports grew faster than expected despite plummeting shipments to the US, pointing to the fast-changing shape of global trade as a result of hefty American tariffs. The latest figures were largely driven by Asian manufacturers importing Chinese raw materials. The data also indicates that Chinese companies’ “efforts to pivot to other markets are paying off,” ING economists noted, with sales to Japan and Europe accelerating. Washington is reportedly mulling offering substantial tariff cuts as part of talks with Beijing this weekend, but the legacy of its punishing levies may be new trade patterns of which the US is not a part.”

Appears China is doing an end around on Trump’s trade idiocy apparently benefitting from Trump pissing off traditional US allies enough to establish “new trade patterns of which the US is not part.”

Although Trump boasts about supposedly getting China to the table in Switzerland the opposite could just as well true

But, but, but we got a “tremendous deal” with the UK, of what no one knows the details

Poor anchovies,

Thanks, when the Red Hat Club only has GIF’s, tweets, and memes to offer in rebuttal it is the white towel hitting the canvas, that was easy

It was horrible during Daffy Donald's first disastrous term. The trade deficit with China increased significantly during Daffy's first term. It went up to 419 billion. It dropped for a while due to the significant lack of demand due to COVID-19.
In 2023 Biden got it to 279 billion. That is a lower number unless Fox Math changes that too.

Notice all were lifted from other sources. They aren't very good at making their own.

The Master Negotiator at work:

Trump was great in the England negotiations. He got the tariff changed from 10 percent to 10 percent. That was masterful. However, he removed tariffs on Rolls-Royce engines and expensive cars.
