#JDVance was asked whether he & #Trump were interested in “a strategic deal with #China, even maybe on #Taiwan.” Vance avoided giving an answer, apart from saying that there had been no discussions about Taiwan w/Beijing. Instead, Vance began spinning the tanking of the global #economy by the admin’s #TradeWars, saying “in a world of hypercomplicated supply chains,” the US “cannot be reliant on countries that don’t put our best interests at mind.”

While #Trump has been busy fantasizing about annexing #Canada, #MarkCarney has been putting our real alliances in motion—with the #EU, #UK, #Australia, #Singapore, and the Indo-Pacific powerhouses—who don’t demand fealty, lie about elections, or launch #TradeWars over tweets.

I suppose that's one way to curb our addiction to goods that were made cheaply in China? #Degrowth by #TradeWars? However, it WILL hurt American business, and a lot of the small ones won't survive. Will #Trump and fiends blame #GeorgeSoros when constituents of red states storm republicans' offices with torches and pitchforks? We'll see...

'It’s already in the cards': #Trump #impeachment urged by WSJ editorial board member

Tom Boggioni, April 12, 2025 8:17AM ET

Jenkins Jr., Trump's on-again, off-again tariff threats almost makes it appear he wants to be impeached, with Jenkins writing, 'A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wednesday morning. It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners.' "
