Trump sure looked like he was attempting to initiate a planetary (except Russia) trade war. There were sudden and severe consequences. If you think we recovered, or that this is over, you are incorrect. 

Trump caved because of the trauma to the stock and bond markets, among other things. The administration pretty clearly didn’t think this through—at all— and were unprepared for blowback so violent and severe. 

Don’t get me wrong … I am thrilled at the announcement of the 90 day suspension. My portfolio is damaged—badly— but is intact. But let’s not sit here and act like everything is fixed, all is well, back to normal. 

On the upside, Americans (myself included) are now far more educated with respect to global trade than they were two weeks ago. 

Are you tired of all the winning?

You voted for an imbecile, Joe. I can’t wait for him to act like this was the plan all along.
