The US doesn't negotiate, it dictates, so it's a dictatorship.
They want to crush China, so China will have no choice but to declare military war on the US.

Hongkong Post suspends the postal service for items containing goods to the US, Hong Kong SAR government said on Wed. “The Government of the United States (US) announced earlier that it would eliminate the duty-free de minimis treatment for postal items despatched from Hong Kong to the US and increase the tariffs for postal items containing goods to the US starting from May 2. The US is unreasonable, bullying and imposing tariffs abusively. Hongkong Post will definitely not collect any so-called tariffs on behalf of the US and will suspend the acceptance of postal items containing goods destined to the US,” read a statement the SAR government released.
Wow! A tariff bailout for farmers. Who could have seen that coming?
The last time Trump did this shit farmers barely kept their heads above water even after Trump's 14 billion$ bribe, and plenty of small farms shut down anyway, also US farmers lost export business that is never coming back, like soybeans, China, a huge buyer, took their business to Brazil. My state lost millions in apple exports.
Because historically attacking the farmers does well for a country. Let alone relection for a party deeply dependent on the ruel vote...

The U.S. imposed new port fees on Chinese-built and operated ships Thursday, striking back at Beijing’s grip on global shipping and signaling a push to revive America’s shipbuilding dominance.

Trump was going to ruin the economy,
Personal income growth exceptionally good first three months
Qt2 gdp growth raised to 3.8%

Inflation easing or less than feared

Just as hard core conservatives are wrong that we cannot improve our economic situation simply thru cutting government spending alone. We cannot improve it by doing nothing or woulda-coulda done anything but what Trump is doing.
To improve our economic situation we have to look hard at gov waste, trade imbalance, manufacturing growth, AI growth, defense growth, and securing rare earth materials.
Beans bullets and rare earth materials.
Some of the stuff Trump is trying will not be as fruitful as advertised, that’s a given. Some will do better. Opening up energy lower infrastructure regulations and ease of doing business. It’s going to take changes in a number of economic influences to bolster the economy. And even then it will be an open question. But business, blind free energy investments floating the stock market and ignoring the debt and other business as usual policies was bound to fail.
Personal income growth exceptionally good first three months
Qt2 gdp growth raised to 3.8%
Atlanta Fed GDPNow growth estimate for Q2 rose to 3.8% from 2.2%
Net exports contribute to the sharp rise
Inflation easing or less than feared
PCE Inflation Was Milder Than Expected In April As Tariffs Took Hold
Economists at Bank of America and Goldman Sachs forecast inflation will shoot up to more than 3.5% by year’s end.

Trump held a phone call with Xi Jinping: the conversation lasted an hour and a half and ended “very positively for both countries”
The two leaders agreed to launch a new round of trade talks as soon as possible.
The U.S. president also noted that Russia, Ukraine, and Iran were not discussed — the conversation focused solely on trade issues.

I think the change in bilateral trade relationship with China is that it has now become clear that it is not just the US who will suffer in a trade war with China. China will suffer in macro ways as well. Until recently the predominate belief has been the US cannot survive without Chinese imports. That has changed, the CCP cannot survive without exports to the US.

The rumored impending trade war appears to have been hype and political tripe.
So much for the doom and gloom of tariffs and trade negotiations wrecking the economy killing the markets.

and while I’m not a fan of predictions this long forecast thru Jun2027 of the Dow reaching 67000 - 77000 seems unrealistic it’s indicative of the overall market reaction to the US’ trade and tariff measures. Also the huge infrastructure and regulatory investment into technology and AI development. As well as foreign investment into US markets, well……

What I think everyone forgets about Trump is he is NOT an ideologue.
He’s a generalist, a negotiator. He’s not married to any agenda but doing what works. Everyone was bat shit crazy he was going to start a trade war and completely crash the global economy.
He threw out a high bar to begin the process and negotiated aggressively with individual markets. Then he backed off and is reaching deals with them.
It’s just Business, not agenda, or ideology,
