Earlier this morning, President Trump hit China with a huge blast on Truth Social, saying China had suddenly turned “very hostile” and that there was no reason to meet with President Xi anymore.
Full report here in case you missed it:
Then just a few hours ago, just as he promised in the morning, he imposed massive new 100% tariffs on China and the stock market and crypto markets fell through the floor.

But now a little optimism emerges if you are looking for tensions to calm down and things to go back to business as usual.
Fielding questions from the Oval Office, President Trump softened his tone and said the meeting with Xi was not actually cancelled:

Look, things are definitely not suddenly roses and sunshine, but President Trump has cracked the door open a bit and offered an olive branch.
Will Winnie The Pooh be smart enough to take it?
It is weird though how much Xi and Pooh look alike isn't it?
Have you ever noticed this?
