Trump accuses China of violating the agreement, saying: "My role as a good guy ends here" On May 30, Trump posted on social media, claiming that China had faced a serious economic crisis two weeks ago, saying that the high tariffs he set made it almost impossible for China to enter the US market, leading to the closure of Chinese factories and "social unrest." Trump said that he reached a "quick deal" with China out of humanitarian considerations and helped China stabilize the economic situation. However, Trump later accused China of "completely violating the agreement with the United States" and expressed disappointment in his role as a "good guy."
