Regarding the recent talk of negotiations, I have to remind you of the semi-secretive meeting between Trump and US giant retail companies where Trump was told by them that if he continues down this path, they'll run out of everything within weeks and there'll be chaos. Accompanied by the ongoing protests across USA and the dumping of US stock market where massive chunk of it vanished in a blinking of an eye, practically forced Trump to beg for negotiations...
In short Trump had the this delusion that US economy is still strong. He quickly realized that US economy is indeed one of the most fragile economies in the world thanks to decades of corruption and bad decisions...
I always thought that in big and strong countries like the United States is, President or any other major political figure doesn't solely make any decision but now I don't really know what to think, what's reality. If Trump really decides everything on his own and doesn't get permission from big guys, that's very strange and doesn't make sense to me because businesses support the President in the USA and the President has to fulfill some of their requests.
If Trump backs down now, then this will also be a devastating accident for the USA because it means that the whole world saw its bluffing and if the USA isn't as powerful as it promotes, then who cares about its restrictions anymore?
With a quick look at GDP charts you can see that Chinese economy has been rapidly growing. For reasons that nobody can understand the US regime sees that as a threat and at some point they declared war on China! It's more like a cold war and one of the battlefields is the economy.
What are the reasons that nobody can understand except the US? I think, everyone knows that the US wants to be the leader country and seeing another country coming close to your economy means that you'll potentially no longer be a leader and for an imperialistic country like the US, this is a threat of live or die level.
Yeah. It's like a race track with a bunch of runners competing. There are two way a runner can get ahead of the others: (1) to run faster (2) to shoot other runners in the leg! And US regime tends to choose option number 2...

The NATO doesn't exist without a reason! The USA spends hundreds of billions of dollars every year on military for no reason.
