Do you remember playing the staring game to see who would blink first? Obviously there is a hell of a lot more at stake in this staring contest. The futures of both countries may very well be determined by who blinks first.

Complacency caused by fear, is what has brought us to this staring contest. Republicans and democrats have been kicking the can down the road, too afraid to stand up China, because big business and the political class have made billions of dollars, collectively off China. Regardless of how anyone feels about Trump, this had to happen because the trade deficit is as unsustainable as the mountain of debt the country is buried under right now, much of it owned by China. Much of our $31 trillion debt has been caused by two very big issues. The first one is that United States does not make anything anymore and the second one is the unbridled amount of spending in Washington, which has now been confirmed that much of it is due to fraud.

Imagine it…we can’t sell products in China because they block us with exorbitant tariffs and taxes, while our budget deficits are covered by borrowed money from the very country that is screwing us. The amazing part of this is that the people running the show in the DC septic tank still want you to believe that they are smarter than you.
