If China is the hostile competitor, then why is Trump threatening or imposing 200% tariffs on France[1], 25% tariffs on countries such as Germany and Denmark[2], and random numbers on their friendly neighbors from the north[3]? These are the kind of tariffs the study is about: the trade wars Trump has started with friendly nations. The study is not about China. And so is my question why Denmark is treated like a hostile nation.
P.S.: If you seriously think I didn't know you were referring to China, you need to do some more thinking while reading.
Again you are just talking past me, ignoring what I wrote. I don't know why Trump is doing what he's doing. I was talking about the total lack of guidance coming from economists on how to turn the situation around. My post was two sentences long, and said nothing but that. The only way you could misunderstand it is deliberately.
> If you seriously think I didn't know you were referring to China
I literally accused you of knowing, i.e. "pretending not to understand". I assume you'll find some nonsense tangent or deliberate misunderstanding again, so this is is the last reply you're trolling out of me.
