Remember that time years ago when Hale Irwin was facing off against Nick Faldo at Augusta, and missed a simple putt on a Par 3, then pulled out his glock and shot his caddy in the back seven times?
Yeah neither do I

Doesnât onebox, gimme a minute.
During the 2016 campaign, Mr Trump pledged to get much tougher on trade with China, which he accused of ârapingâ the US. After launching a trade war with Beijing, he secured a limited trade deal in January. But that agreement looks wobbly and the trade deficit remains stubbornly high.
The US trade deficit in goods with China in 2016 was $347bn. For 2019, it was only marginally lower at $345bn.
Ryan Hass, a China expert at the Brookings Institution and an informal adviser to Joe Bidenâs campaign, said that, during the 2016 campaign, Mr Trump pledged to negotiate better trade deals for US workers and asked voters to use the size of the deficit as a âscorecardâ.
âThe reason he doesnât want to talk about trade [now] is he doesnât want the media to do the forensics,â Mr Hass added. âAmericans got their shit kicked out of them in the exact area where President Trump said he would solve their problems.â

I suspect that with the economy in the collapsed state it is, this -$2B (<0.6%) difference may represent an actual increase in real trade dollars. But what do I know?

2019 though. If the metric was supposed to be trade deficit with China, he failed. They give the trump spokesman spin in the article, but theyâre not buying it.

That particular awful thing they did feels awfully personal to me (and I bet it does to a lot of Canadians).

btw: I hate sites with chaotic article titles, where the HTML title is different from the headline in the text, which is different from the og:title, etc, with a multiplier for sites that change the article headline hourly.
