China Thinks Trump is a Lobster

I’ve been doing my research on how China really sees Donald Trump.   After all the months of attack and insult spewing from the mouth of the Orange Clown, I needed to get behind the diplomatic smiles and the nice words or silences, to find out how China really feels.

Many of us, the 4th World know how many businesses no longer exist due to cheap Chinese imports.   The word cheap isn’t just for the price, most stuff from China is so bad that….

I was wearing a new pair of slacks.  Walking along the road.  I wasn’t walking fast, I wasn’t kicking a foot ball, I was walking nice and stately.   I had gone about a block when ..  ripppp!  and the pants tore around my nether region.

Fortunately for me, I had on an over blouse, which I immediately pulled off and put around my waist as a kind of skirt.   When I got home, all I could do was toss those slacks in the trash.

Where were the slacks made?   China.

I had a pair of shoes.   One day I looked down and my little toe was sticking out of the side.  It just was.  I didn’t do anything, I just wear the shoes to walk.   But, the shoes gave way.

Where were they made? China.

What do I buy now?   I go to stores which sell American products and buy them.  That is because all the local manufacturers are out of business.  They couldn’t compete with China.

Trump has said things about China, blaming them for the same thing;  putting people out of work, putting businesses out of business by cheap imports.   The problem is easily solved;  tax.   Tax Chinese stuff so it is the same price as American.  I don’t see the problem.

Many people in the street of China have mixed views.   One of them likened Trump to a Lobster.

He said,  “It’s orange, cranky, confident and determined to have the last word,”

Yeah, sounds about right.
