You know what’s unfair?, China being called a developing country!!. How can you be in the developing stage if you have world class cities, highly educated workforce, a bold foreign policy with the military hardware to match it and participating in hacking attacks

Shut up already about TikTok, all day long CNBC talks about it!

Unfair? The Politburo must be struggling to contain its mirth. The US President has just helped China realize one of its greatest aspirations: to truly globalize Chinese companies. And to frost the cake, Trump has exposed the hollowness of his threat to decouple the two economies

The US be like 'ok, show us how you do that nifty spying on everyone stuff'

I had to re-read this article because lot of things do not makes sense. Why sanction or block use of TiK Tok in the US if you still plan to have Chinese firm owe 80%. Why Walmart and Oracle (rhetorical question)? SMH

Did the deal maker in chief get played?

Who the hell cares what China thinks.?
