Then everyone dumps on him, and he says the roll back was fake news and it's still happening, but nobody even in the administration knows what's going on.

I think Xi might have figured out Trump’s secret. He has no fucking clue what he’s doing. He scares people into reacting by being reckless, then claims a win for getting a reaction.

Ignoring trolls takes their power away.

Basically, this strategy Trump and Putin and their ilk do never works outside of their little bubble. Their whole game is to tear everyone else in their sphere of influence down to their level, so that they can compete effectively and dominate, but there are always significant threats outside of the sphere. Against which we are now more or less powerless.

That's business school from a guy who ran casinos into the ground. Nice work America.

It's true. "Casinos," plural. CASINOS PLURAL, EVERYBODY.

y'all are spelling 'russian money laundering operations' wrong.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Even worse. How does one bankrupt a Russian money laundering operation? You'd think they would do their best to keep that shit running.

THE ART OF THE DEAL

Art of the deal

[–] [email protected] 106 points 1 month ago (3 children)

The best next step:

China does nothing (keeps their tariffs)

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 month ago

That's very possible. Trump gave them excuse to do this. They already set up a deal with Korea and Japan (and each two hate each other), and if they would set up a trade deal with EU then the US will be the only loser.

Trump really hurt US with the tariffs on everyone (except Russia, North Korea and Belarus)

best deal in the history of deals
