China does have the ability to redirect export flows to other countries, we saw this during the first term where Chinese exporters attempted to make up for lost demand by flooding other markets, in particular Latin America and Europe, which did work for a time but the problem is when you lose the country that is responsible for 1/3 of world consumption, these are short term measures and you are put on a clock to make a deal, and more over they cause consternation and retaliatory trade measures in the countries you do dump your excess exports to due to driving local competition out as your crash the prices.
Fuck off, retard. You don't know what I think. I know lots of people from mainland China and Taiwan who were quite eager to move overseas. I'm pointing out that it should be obvious even to an idiot like you that there are many such people.
The problem is that China has been aggressively fucking with our shit since xi came into power, going out of their way to create problems
@Thé au lait I summon thee: do you think Taiwan would fold and capitulate to China if they invaded, or try to hold out until the US arrives? Is SaidNoOneEver correct or a CCP shill?
This is about as true as saying everyone who isn't a Democrat supporter is a MAGA cultist.
I completely disagree. Some fabs may be built in the USA, but the R&D is staying there and alone makes Taiwan worth defending.
Ummmm excuse me, drumpf. Becky Goldwitzstein, ACLU. We're suing on behalf of Paco del Taco who took your nazi buyout plan. The seat is economy but it should be First Class with free champagne because no human is illegal you tiny dick cheeto man
This argument is so played out and retarded, it died in the gas chamber with wokeness.
Again, fucking laughable. We're offering input and seeking deals with these countries. If they want us to mind our own business then the tariffs shouldn't bother them. Name one country that hasn't told every country how they "should" live in some way or another, i can't scroll social media for 20 seconds without seeing people tell Americans how to change gun laws, health, care, season dey food, etc.
Huge wumao red flag. I imagine somebody would have outed you by now given how long you've been here but either way this is exactly the bullshit they try to pull.
Good, now maybe they can concentrate on what matters, keeping their actual GPU's in stock for the rest of us so they can't be scalped for 2x MSRP.
I watched this this morning while I was waiting for the coffee to work. Towards the end she talks about signs of internal dissent in the CCP
Bold of you to assume anything at McDonald's is made with actual beef or poultry.
Leveraging international discontent against the US when Trump is president is not a winning strategy.
Cruise missiles can hit Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzen easily from Taipei.
All I know about it is that they didn’t follow up in the news, but shortly after we were buying a lot of Swiss bullion
It was one of Trump's many political shitposts. The gold is there, but no one cares because there's not enough gold on planet Earth to back up global financial systems. There are many avenues of this topic, but there is already a thread for it.
I was thinking military targets, not industrial targets, but fair enough.
I remember Musk responding to a post mentioning it, but that's about it. Gold keeps climbing, though. Someone's buying, hopefully not the chinks.
The chinks have been mining it. They might have a lot, but if they try to cash it out, the price will go down. I think the strategy is to backstop the yuan while they ARE intentionally devaluing it to facilitate continued export. Their gold is the control rod in their shitport reactor
