China Starts Losing It Over Trump Tariffs

Understand just how screwed China happens to be.  The whole develoed world can divert its investment capital into the whole world outside China while China now must compete face to face there and cannot sell into the USA

for forty years, China failed to hugely expand ther internal market and really that means it failed to monetize it outside the CCP big men. The peasents simply cannot bail out the economy as has happened again and again in the USA.

All of a sudden the peasents must go home to their villages and worry about getting crops in.  emptying towns and cities must truly frighten the CCP so we have this bleating.

China Starts Losing It Over Trump Tariffs -- Communist Apparatchik Warns Those...

China is starting to feel the heat over President Trump's tariffs.

Xia Baolong, a senior Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official who governs the regions of Hong Kong and Macao, lashed out at Trump over his decision to impose 145 percent levy on goods from the region.

"The US isn't after our tariffs but our very survival," Xia said in a televised speech.

"The US has repeatedly contained and suppressed Hong Kong … and this will eventually backfire on itself."

"Let those peasants in the United States suffer in front of the 5,000 years of Chinese civilization," he continued.

"The Chinese people do not cause trouble, nor are they afraid of trouble.

"Pressure, threats and blackmail are not the right way to deal with China," he added.

While the remarks did not come from Xi Jinping himself, the tightly controlled nature of the CCP means that Xia would have almost certainly had his approval before launching his tirade.

The comments may have been retaliation for similar remarks made last week by Vice President J.D. Vance in which he defended the Trump administration's policy.

"We borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture," Vance said in an interview with Fox News.
