After China announced countermeasures against the US, imposing a 34% tariff on all American goods, Trump posted on April 4th claiming: "China won't play, they are panicking, this is the consequence they can't bear!" (See attached Figure 2)
China has risen, become prosperous, and grown strong. It is no longer the era of humiliation. For unilateral bullying by the US side, we must retaliate in kind to defend dignity and interests.
For Trump, who is fierce outside but weak inside, only equivalent measures can communicate with him.
Talk? Sure! Fight? We will see it through!
