Trump keeps claiming he’s working on a deal with China. Beijing says that it is all in his mind

"He Yadong, China’s Ministry of Commerce spokesperson, said Thursday: “Any claims about the progress of China-U.S. trade negotiations are groundless as trying to catch the wind and have no factual basis.”

Similarly, Guo Jiakun, a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said China is prepared to negotiate only under certain conditions. “China’s attitude is consistent and clear: if you want to fight, we will fight to the end, if you want to talk, the door is open,” he said.

Yet Trump, when pressed to respond on China’s denial, continued to claim there were talks taking place during a brief availability with reporters alongside Norway’s prime minister Thursday afternoon.

“Well, they had a meeting this morning, so I can't tell you. It doesn't matter who ‘they’ is. We may reveal it later, but they had meetings this morning, and we've been meeting with China,” he said."


Trump is trapped in his own delusions.

Raise your hand if you didn't see this one coming. Tell me, Maga, what kind of "deal making" sees the president publicly claiming he wants to lower tariffs on a country by nearly 100% before they even start talking? This must be the art of the deal everyone keeps referring to. How weak does Trump look going around telling everyone that he's lowering tariffs and "speaking" to China when no such thing has happened? Everyone is looking at this guy like the biggest fool on the planet right now.

So China and Trump faced off, and Trump blinked.

That's to no one's surprise. Trump always caves when challenged. The whole world laughs at Trump for being such a weakling.

 

[Blaster]

In Trump I trust.

You would think what with them being commies and all that "saving face" would be something from a bygone era yet it stubbornly holds on there.

It is, however, useful information to see who backs China when in a confrontation.

He's just playing it coy while he works on deals with honourable governments. The longer it takes for to make a deal the worse it is domestically for the CCP and the less they can harrass and bully their neighbours.

Let's face it, just as with the WTO, WHO and ever other organization, China just treats deals as some paperweight. Similar to Canadas charter of Rights. It is how all centralized systems act so America needs to hold nations accountable for the sake of all humanity.

The CCP have really harmed their brand and that of Chinese citizens. It's sad to see. Humanity doesn't appear to matter to them. All of us will be judged and all will be revealed.

So the dimtards believe what China tells them to believe....makes sense.

The CCP ass-kissing from the left is reaching epic proportions.

What Is the Truth?
"Whatever My Meme-Lords Want It to Be"

Now you believe that everything Beijing's word is a reliable source. The one thing I do believe from them, though I'm not allowed to by the Treehugging warm-mongers and their classmates, the Chickenhawk war-mongers, is their extremely low Cronyvirus death toll (6,000), because it adds to the mountain of evidence that what the enemies of human progress call "pollution" exterminates viruses.

Word salad time because I can't figure out what Trump is doing and I haven't read my daily Maga script to tell me how I should respond to Trump caving on tariffs.

Truth hurts. Trump caved

Not sure who's backing China here, but we already know who backs Putin and Russia.

When he says the world is laughing at us, all he's doing is just projecting his own insecurities about himself. Who tells you, they're negotiating right now, even when they're not, and then he goes ahead and weakens his own position by saying the "tariffs are too high at 145%," and "there's going to be empty shelves," and "no one is going to buy." This is literally the most ridiculous self defeating negotiating tactic ever lmao.

So, if I understand you correctly, you believe anything China tells you.

One can argue we should quit the BS. Say the tariffs are permanent and work on long term strategies to onload this production back to North America.

No, I believe in common sense and that they have no motive to lie, while Donald, has every motive to lie, and often doesn't even need one. Even Bessent confirmed that they have not spoken to China. Nuff said.

This will never happen.
