"Folks, China has been screwing us for years. I have a bunch of friends who are Chinese. Jeez, the Bank of China is a tenant of mine. They are laughing at us because of how bad our leadership is. When I am president I will reverse that and this country will have so many wins it will be unbelievable...believe me."
~ President Trump
More campaign broken promise bullshit, or are we going to see some action. It is time for President Trump to keep a campaign promise. Do not blame everything on the past. I want him to grab the bull by the horns in China and set some better trade policies for our country. The trade deficit is, "out of kilter." I'm tired of the sound bytes. I want some action done in China. Think of it this way. If the trade deficit last year alone was 346 billion and America is able to reverse it a little. Let's just say 1%. All of a sudden, you have close to three and a half billion that remains state side.
"You and this Chinatown bullshit never ends. I would think you would be ready to move on. There is no future for you there. They only deal with their own kind." Mad Max and I have been debating the worth of our current president and China has been a hot topic as of late - "First of all moron. You have no idea how the Asians think or do business. Not a clue. You have never had any Asian friends and as far as I am concerned your opinion means nothing." Mad Max is a big asshole a lot of the times so I have to be firm with him or he will try to bull me over.
"So you're fucking smart and I am nothing but a stupid hillbilly. If that is the case why aren't you rich by now. How long have you been going on about Chinatown? You are still broke motherfucker. Let's see some action out of you." It feels good to air things out with him. It is good therapy for the two of us. "Look," I say intently, "It's your idol who got me all worked up. He knows China better than any of these other hacks who could have got elected. He said he was going to do something to make a better deal for the country and I am ready for him to keep his fucking word!"
I don't like to toot my horn too much, but I will now. Our president is in a as good a situation as we can ask for. From what I am gathering there is going to be some significant things happening between the two of us. A lot of things were already set in motion but I look for Trump's vision to enhance the current structure. If what I believe will happen trickles its way back to Chinatown - I will be ready.
