This trade war is turning into a tit-for-tat economic standoff:
🇺🇸 Trump hits with 34% tariffs
🇨🇳 China retaliates
🇺🇸 Trump escalates to 84%
🇨🇳 China hits back
🇺🇸 Trump raises to 145%
🇨🇳 China responds again
🇺🇸 Trump asks Xi to negotiate
🇨🇳 Silence
🇺🇸 Trump offers a deal
🇨🇳 Still silent
🇺🇸 Trump unleashes 245% tariffs
At this point, it’s less strategy—more desperation. The trade war just went nuclear.
