US reached a trade deal yesterday with China - China will buy 50 Billion dollar worth US products in exchange for US to suspend tariff increase against Chinese products. In the oval office yesterday - Trump then said Hongkong's protests will take care of itself. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...g-kong-protests-will-take-care-of-itself-soon Irony? At this point, HK is not even on the table for Trump to talk about with China. Many years ago, Yahoo China turned up information about the identity of a Chinese reporter that leaked Tiananmen square security force placement on June 4 of that year to NYT. The Chinese reporter used Yahoo email to send that information. He received a 10 year sentence for treason. Congress was furious at Yahoo and called on Andrew Yang into a hearing. One question I still remember to this day - they asked "is it ok for Yahoo to tell Nazi where Anne Frank was hiding". Yet, the ties with China did not decrease but increased at all levels - including the current trade deals Now, let's pull back a little back, think about this ... Is HK an Anne Frank situation or its more like a "China-town" situation where everyone is telling their own version of the story? Do you Morey really understand? Trump appears to think differently on voicing it out with China- with the aid of his advisors of course. And yet, they are calling Yahoo, Morey, Rockets and NBA to defend the values of this country? This is how ridiculous this is in my view in a grand scheme of things. Bunch of amateurs.
