Any wonder whu Xi ain't coming?
Don't expect Trudeau or Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo to ttend either;

"US President-elect Donald Trump has said one of his first acts will be to slap 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, a move which would cause havoc for two of America's key economic partners."

I just have one question? I thought Trump wanted to discourage illegal immigration from all three of those countries. Just how will harming businesses in thos countries and thereby causing unemployment to rise there decrease the desperation that causes people to risk everything to get to the United States in search for work? Seems to me his plan will fuel new waves of immigrants to come here as their jobs are lost in their home countries as tariffs reduce the market for their products here by increasing the costs to consumers. But I dom't expect Trump to understand basic common sense because he is basically stupid.

Wouldn't be surprised if Xi takes a lesson from Castro's decision to allow or even encourage a huge exodus of Cubans to Miami' then multiply it times 100 that could start pouring in from China! Trump is playing a very stupid game with Zi by threayening 60% tariffs! And it is a game America will lose badly! When Mariel happened Americans were advised to learn Spanish; If Trump imposes those taeiffs on China you probably netter learn Chinese!
