      China isn’t a friend, but at least their decisions have some predictable logic behind them and they don’t seem to assume every negotiation is a zero-sum game with a winner and a loser.

      Trump makes his decisions with an incomprehensible combination of dementia fever dreams, who offended him most recently, and what boosts his ego the most.

      Read the AP article on it today. This is why I voted for him.

      Just gotta make as many moves as possible outside of the US because Trump is a lunatic and will probably torpedo CUSMA for no reason.

      I kinda like the Beaverton article that contrasts China’s „neutral evil“ to Trump’s „chaotic evil.“ But we shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that China will absolutely screw up over the second it gets the chance.

      As for the North American auto industry, the Chinese BEVs are allegedly filling a niche that the North American industry chose not to enter because it’s more profitable to force a car-dependent society to buy larger, more expensive cars. This deal will show whether the niche actually exists.

      The article purposely misrepresents what was agreed to. Canola tariffs will come down to 6% and seafood and canola meal will go no tariff. In return we agree to let in 49000 ev at a 6 % tariff. This is meant to start March 1 and is only preliminary meaning there are issues to be worked out and both sides have to act to implement. It isn’t a sellout. And yes, the US is untrustworthy.

      This editorial slant on this article is incredibly misleading. The first paragraph says that we are lifting tariffs on electric cars but China is not lifting tariffs on canola and the tone is negative.

      In actual fact we are implementing a cap stat where the first 49K Chinese cars annually come in at a 6% Tariff rate and Chinese tariffs on Canola are reduced from 100% to 15%.

      This is real progress
