Britthume appeared on Fox News on Monday, saying the US has important advantages in escalating trade standoffs with China.

China defendant The US warned that tariff abuse and that it would retaliate against countries that engage in trade deals with Washington, DC at Beijing’s expense. When featured in the “Special Report with Brett Bayer,” Hume said many countries would eventually be adjacent to Washington, D.C.

“Don’t forget this, Brett, that’s our favor. It’s our economy – despite the size of China, our economy will be bigger.

We are the big enchilada here and you have to not be without us.” There are many people now who believe that the US can compete with that kind of China, but that is another factor of uncertainty in the economic outlook. ”

Hume cited the suspension of orders for China’s Boeing aircraft as a concrete example of economic fallout. (Related: Brithume identifies who is pushing Democrats to bring Abrego Garcia back to us)

“Today, China’s Brett is cutting off Boeing. Boeing has received a notable order to manufacture the plane and ship it to China,” Hume said. “For at least for now, these things are stopped on their trucks, and that costs money, and if that would hurt American work and growth.
