Re: The trade war changed everything
There are several ways to fight. You can either have a pitched battle (World War I) or drive around the Maginot wall. We chose the direct frontal attack. It has its advantages, especially when you have overwhelming superiority. I guess we don't have the financial clout any more. China can do as it pleases.
A more subtle approach escapes the general US public's view of the world, however. Sometimes I am ashamed and sometime I think it is our strength. This time it is not the best thing we could have done.
