Gaslighting Alert: There is no trade deal. There's a band aid to help heal our self inflicted wounds



David Rothkopf ✔ @djrothkopf

There is no trade deal. There is a band aid to help heal our self inflicted wounds. It will not do that. It is largely unenforceable. All major trade issues with US and China go unaddressed. Today’s announcement is a sham wrapped in a press release surrounded by BS.

Mark Knoller ✔ @markknoller

Today at the WH: Pres Trump hosts Chinese Vice Premier Liu He for formal signing of the Phase 1 trade deal with China, which @POTUS portrays as a landmark agreement that will provide a big boost to the US economy and his reelection. The East Room event set for 1130am/ET.
