Less than a couple of hours ago Trump tweeted "Oil prices are too high, OPEC is at it again. Not good!"

I am sure that oil at 150 a barrel will have a significant effect on our economy

Trump will probably be stuck, in its tariff, even if it affects workers and businesses at home.

Now China that may be another story far in the future. But right now they have little in the way of production geared towards domestic financial security. Their GDP relies heavily on exports as does the common chinese workers income. So I think they come to negotiate soon. Heck they already offered 70 billion to stop the impending trade war, we told them to pack sand. I think it was in post #48 that Trump said might be a little painful but in the end it will be better for the U.S. All I can say to that is: I hope so.

The Donald does not count services when claiming a European trade surplus, and it is right these services where the US score very, very heavily. If the EU would launch penalty tarrifs on this segment of business and target US services with penalty tarrifs, then it would become as hurting for the US as it may become for Europe. Maybe even more.
The question is whether or not Brussels has the balls to do this.

I think this crisis was summarised by one US official back in 2014 or so:
" the EU"

That was Victoria lamenting over the E.U. dragging its feet over sanctions against the Ukraine. However that's not what really surprised us. What surprised us was Russian intelligence services taped and released the conversation.
