Other than the "reports of pain" this snippet seems uncharacteristically even handed for BI. US pundits are hyperventilating over the tariffs saying they are forever. POTUS gave them a choice - his way or the hard way. China overplayed their hand, POTUS is backing them into a corner, and he won't back off. They either concede or start shooting. I don't think they can finance a war with US debt, do you? Think the Roths will come to their rescue? They are sabre-rattling - muh islands, muh carriers, muh nextgen weapons,, muh space shit.
