The governor of California is going to call Trump’s bluff by ignoring the federal tariff and negotiate directly with other countries on tariffs. Seems like a decent strategy considering that the Trump tariffs are entirely dependent on the claim that the national debt has created a national emergency that gives the president the power to levy tariffs. In other words, the White House is likely violating the law and California is going to respond in kind.

I question that. States Rights are one thing, but international trade, including treaties and tariffs are federal jurisdiction. I question if Cal can just go their own way, refuse to take part and negotiate their own agreements. That would be a Constitutional Law question, but it’s my impression that won’t stand scrutiny. 

I think it's going very well," he said.

He sounds like the generals that kept pouring soldiers into Gallipoli,.

Maybe I’m missing something but Tim meeting with Trump and in Feb and then both announcing the 500b US investment has total exemption written all over it. Again am I missing something? Would welcome comments. 

Trump has a long history, going back many decades, of agreeing to something and then stabbing the other party in the back. 

I think you’re spot on with this. Look at Samsung and the other companies that have brought out folding phones. They sell, as a top tier niche product. Most people don’t see any point to spending the extra money. Most people just want a phone, not a fancy, expensive, folding device for more money to do the same thing. It will sell to a small portion of the population. Lotus makes cars for them too. But the rest of us will stick with our flat iPhones and Toyotas.
