In Trump 1.0 IT, he said that the senior officials, including the cabinet ministers, used to find out if they had to register for the work when they saw the president’s tweets. In Trump 2.0, world leaders have set their watches in Washington to discover what is happening exactly in the rates game. And nerve investors literally fear the opening bell of stock markets, cutting the continents.
It is not as if everyone is waiting for the president of the United States, Donald Trump, to take a change of meaning with tariffs. That will not happen. Rather, uncertainty in world capitals and stock markets has to do with the conciliatory statements perceived on the one hand and the rejection that something could be in sight. Trump says Beijing and Washington are in “active” negotiations. Beijing denies, emphasizing that this is as fundamental as “trying to catch the wind.”
Trump put the ball rolling saying that the final rate on China could go down “substantially”, but “no zero.” That was enough to gather the actions that had a beating in the last three weeks. The international community has been waiting to see how the two largest economies will solve the problems, with China rooting 145 percent
China stand
China has always had a background: we are open, but consultations must be “at the base of mutual respect and in the same way.” What irritated Beijing was that Trump paused 90 days to all countries, except China. The Chinese president, Xi Jinping Tok, is a step further by restricting the export of rare earth minerals, presenting multiple cases against the US. In the World Trade Organization, and more recently refusing to accept the delivery of new Boeing aircraft.
The United States, sustained the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, should eliminate all “unilateral tariff measures” against China if you “really wanted to” solve the problem. “The person who tied the bell must unleash,” said the ministry spokesman. And in a warning to other important commercial partners in Asia and Europe, Beijing warned the countries of commercial agreements with Washington for the relief of tariffs. “China will not accept it and take reciprocal countermeasures,” was the message.
Trump is not naive by any stretch of image. Benead all that bombing that he and his advisors are very aware of how things have been directed in the United States and other places. The stock market may have increased for a few days this week, but remains at more than 10 percent since the opening of January 20; They have shaved about $ 7 billion, it is estimated. And politician, the message cannot be lost in the White House as well as at the headquarters of the Republican Party. Republican donors of fat cats and Trump are not smiling exactly in this scenario.
Trump’s qualifications hit
For some who broke into the White House in immigration and economy credentials, Trump is a success on both issues, if the latest surveys have something to do. In fact, a survey gives Trump the lowest score for the economy with an approval of 37 percent. The real touch here is that Presidents Joe Biden, Barack Obama and George W Bush did better at this point in his mandate.
The advantage Trump had in immigration seems to have the tasks also a success with only 45 percent of the approach policies that included hard borders, end the citizenship of birth rights and an offensive against foreign students in F1 visas on university campuses. The saving grace: Trump 2.0 is better than Trump 1.0 at this time in its presidency.
