        Yep, and then pause them claiming, like he did this time, that somehow magically every nation in the world managed to negotiate with him to his satisfaction within a couple of days…

        Or claim that no one but China threatened retaliatory tariffs (and of course a lot of them did) and that’s why he gave them a reprieve to reward them for not retaliating.

        Or to claim that China is a bad actor because they imposed punitive tariffs and that’s only something that bad actors do…
