Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, April 24, 2025

China has called on the US to cancel its sweeping tariffs on Chinese goods entering the country as a sign that the President Donald Trump is serious about resolving the trade war between the two countries. A Chinese official said there had been no trade talks with the US, despite suggestions otherwise from the Trump administration.

The trade war between the world's two largest economies has been escalating, with China sending back Boeing planes it ordered from the US in its latest retaliation over tariffs. But Trump has appeared to soften his stance on China, saying that the taxes he has so far imposed on Chinese imports would "come down substantially, but it won't be zero".

Isn't it amazing that Trump assumes that people with no interest in backing up his lies will back up his lies?

Donald's mental age is four.

He also doctored photos of the tattoos on the hand of the victim he sent to the gulag in El Salvador to support his lies about him.

I was a bit surprised that this blatant attempt at propaganda was not headline news for a week. But it was buried under a mountain of his lies so it's understandable. It was briefly mentioned then just as quickly forgotten.

Just one more example of probably thousands of his blatant lies to the American people he has made in the first 100 days.

And maga maroons slurp them up like fava beans with Chianti.

You know ...

Like their mythical hero the Late Great Hannibal Lector.

In Trump's corroded mind, it was all part of the Great Game as played by the Greatest Gamester of All Time Ever Forever and Ever Amen.

"The trade war between the world's two largest economies has been escalating, with China sending back Boeing planes it ordered from the US in its latest retaliation over tariffs."

Boeing has a 7 year wait list for its DEI manufactured flying shittubes. This does nothing. China's economy is collapsing and the speculation inside the country is that Xi may lose control of the CCP.

Trump's head on assault vs. China - both in his first term and now - will go down as one of the best things ever down for America and humanity in general. Oh, and America is clearly winning in this trade war. In the latest move, countries like Vietnam are ending the Chinese trans-shipments to hide the true country of origin. So, not only is China's direct sales to the US ending - but their illegal trans-shipping business is coming to an end. This is a big deal as the trans-shipment trade deficit is roughly the same as the direct trade deficit and eliminating it makes the trade with countries like Vietnam look much more balanced.

I sometimes wonder whether ScottS is a parody account to make Trump supporters seem like crazy morons.

He's so damned sick he's fun to interact with.

Lol, you morons really don't like it when I pop your liberal bubble. Hard facts - China has already lost the trade war. The latest news is Foxconn moving their iPhone manufacturing to India and Vietnam causing a few million more Chinese to lose their jobs. As I posted the other day, China cancels plane orders because the airlines don't need them due to collapsing internal demand - oh - it is also for its international tourist routes. Chinese tourism is down 70% to both Cambodia and Thailand, cratering for Europe - and not surprising, the US. It is not due to the most recent tariffs - it is due to the Chinese economic collapse kicked off by Trump's tariffs his first time around. Unemployment is skyrocketing, recent college grads can't find jobs, and their real estate bubble has been deflating for 3 years wiping out multiple generations of wealth in the process.

But, due to your blind hatred of Trump - you can't seem to understand these things. Doesn't matter - reality is reality regardless of how much your plug your ears and bury your head in the sand.

Maybe that is why liberals are so enraged - they hear trans-shipment ban and think it will apply to Laura Mohr and Alexandrite's "wife".
