The #Illusion Is Over.

What Comes Next Is Up to You. It is time to stare at the world with clear eyes and no illusions.No more clinging to the past.No attempts at “sane-washing.”What is, is. This is the world we, collectively, have built.It may not be the world we dreamed of, but it is the one we must now navigate.

So the #US & #China are ramping up their #trade war

#Xi operates in a climate where the only people he needs to appease are members of his #politburo who, by the way, are all in agreement w/ him. China's total exports to the US is no more than 3% of its total #GDP &, in theory, can easily be redistributed to other nations.

Trump operates in a climate where he needs to make his #oligarch friends happy. & THEY definitely don't agree w/ his yoyo-ing

Now, ask yourself: who's gonna win?

#Trump the #LaughingStock

"The Chinese Ministry of Finance confirmed today the [125%] increase will take effect from tomorrow, April 12.

It's the last such action China will take, per the Finance Ministry, with the Commerce Ministry adding that China considers the current tariff levels to be economically meaningless."
