This past year also produced important changes in U.S. bilateral trading patterns, most notably a reduction in imports from China, with U.S. goods imports from China falling by $97.1 billion (table 3-1) (U.S. Census Bureau and BEA 2026). Imports from China in 2025 (through October) fell to 9.3 percent of total U.S. imports, which is near the 8.9 percent level in 2000—the year before China joined the World Trade Organization—and down significantly from 13.4 percent in 2024 (Alfaro and Chor 2025). Table 3-1 shows that goods imports also fell from Canada, Germany, South Korea, and Singapore, while increasing with Taiwan, Switzerland, Vietnam, Ireland, and Mexico.

Fundamentally, the integrated trade and investment deals with Taiwan will support high-value job creation, develop advanced manufacturing capabilities, and reduce vulnerabilities in critical supply chains. Simultaneously, U.S. firms are provided with improved access to Taiwan’s markets, which strengthens the United States–Taiwan economic relationship in the direction of innovation and economic security.

BTFO. America won the trade war. Communists will never recover.

Pro-capitalist pro-US forces have occupied the White House and the world's most powerful military is now fully prepared to bomb as many civilians as necessary to defend humanity's freedom. Operation Super Epic Winning is happening. If any communist or communist sympathizer wants to expand their territory or think about expanding their territory then they'll have to be willing to die for it in the most gruesome of ways the likes of which history has never seen before. There is no international law. There is only the divinely inspired will of the United States.

'There is free-market capitalism and state capitalism. Now, there’s Trump capitalism.

In recent months, the president has extended his hand into American business in unorthodox and, to some corporate leaders, alarming ways—from progressive-style demands to cap credit-card rates to assertive deals grabbing government shares in private companies.

In December, Trump met with The Wall Street Journal and said, “When people need something, I think we should take stakes in companies. Now, some people would say that doesn’t sound very American. Actually, I think it is very American.”'

Trump is clumsily copying Chinas state capitalism because neoliberalism left USA the loser in the trade war.

Next week TACO is going to visit Xi, begging for resumption of refined rare earths.
Xi will say no, unless you hand over Taiwan and get out of the middle east.

TACO has lost control of the Strait of Hormuz.

TACO Trump is the biggest loser since Great Brtitain lost control of the Suez canal and the Greate British Pound lost global reserve currency dominance.

Again, plenty of rare earths in Greenland.

LOL we can't hand over something we don't own, you retard. Taiwan owns itself. Officially the US is a neutral observer, and that still is too scary for Xi to do anything even while our entire navy is busy somewhere else. Pathetic. If you want Taiwan and you think you have enough interceptors then try and take it. Otherwise we'll just strike first. Either way, communism is over. We're not doing another century of this. God gave you more than enough time to repent.
