Either much lower or no tariffs at all on industrial goods. WINNING!

I would say it is good progress and I hope, and expect, China will cave and be willing to negotiate more fair agreements.

I must admit, I do not know much about those types trade agreements but I do suspect they are pretty grossly slanted against the US benefit.

China will be the toughest negotiation. I like how Trump just put it right out there. He asked nicely. Then he instituted some tariffs. China hit back, and Trump just went right to it......'fine, we will just tariff every single thing you send here. Reciprocate that, and you STILL lose.'

It's a no brainer on Xi's part once he's totally convinced Trump will follow through. (He will.)

Methinks Trump wanted Europe first so he can use combined US/Europe tariffs against China.
