This trade deal situation with China has been a little too calm, something is afoot.

A few weeks into term and they got hit with what is effectively an embargo, after years of hyping up the strategic rivalry, military build-up, Taiwan drama, SCS kerfuffles, fake pandemic, secret biolabs in the US, fentanyl trafficking, election interference, other 5GW things...

Now the MSM is using the words like détente. No fucking way.

Is this to rugpull the CFR/Pentagon interests that would send the Navy in tomorrow given the option?

Or is this détente a operationalized deception because the go-hot is already scheduled and the optics of that can't be trade related?

Does the US need a better excuse than trade to get involved?

Or does the US solve the trade problem as an excuse NOT to get involved?

If the shooting/blockade is scheduled within the IC/back-channels, how would this position markets and supply-chains in advance of that?

How did the fake pandemic prepare markets and supply-chains? How is the trade war another phase of that?

No idea where this ends, but kumbaya over a trade deal isn't it.
