Please explain how he caved.
He paused the tariffs because the bond market was crashing. He couldn't take the heat. To put it in simple terms, he blinked.
We have basically been begging to get China to the table. Not sure how you can spin that as on "his" terms.
I actually am in favor of tariffs and a level playing field. This is not what this is about. This is about isolationism.
