US treasury secretary says ‘there is a path’ with China over tariff negotiations

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/27/trump-tariffs-china-negotiations

Yes, and it turns out they do not care, which is why they aren't negotiating with your bullshit.

The US exports from China amount to 12% of their GDP. They can absolutely not give a fuck and be fine getting it with zero tarrifs from elsewhere as a new trade destination for whomever offers.

There is also a path for me to marry Scarlett johansson. The Treas Sec and I are equally as delusional.

You probably won't and that's kinda the only silver lining about this whole thing. It makes people question consumerism.
