They built the Great Wall to maintain control. And people all over the world pays good money to see that Wall, today.
Trumps wants to build and a Great Wall too. He wants to protect American interests. His trade war with China aims at making American economy for Americans. American know how must not be copied and Americans would once again build infra-structure for the emerging world. The Chinese only will rob their hosts.
NAFTA was supposed to reduce poverty in Mexico. Instead it made Canadians and Americans poor. The Mexican are still poor and pour over the USA border.
Clinton thought by giving China most favored nation status, the Chinese will abandon communism. They have not, instead their wealth is used to rape the world. American and Canadians lost their jobs for that.
The Trump is correct in his rhetoric, America first. That is something White ppl know off, colored ppl are bleeding hearts, they rather let the country becomes a shit hole place.
I have to agree with Seig here. The China Chinaman should never be trusted blindly. As Ronald Reagan said "Trust but verify" This is true when it comes to China.
