If Trump said this.........it is meaninless. His perception of pretty much anything is skewed, biased, and inaccurate.

China is far too seasoned, experienced and calculating to "panic".

Like the rest of the planet.........it is royally dissed off with the Trump idiocy.

Trump is legit delusional and his supporters will twist any justification to suit their belief in him.

To be honest, the US has for the last 50 years demanded that the rest of the world supply them as they are no longer a producing country but a consuming country.

They had to financial power to force these countries to do so, and now they want to be a producer and not pay the costs of that?

Go ahead.

You can't be near the top of the financial food chain without having someone to supply you or create for you.

China isn't worried about the US, they are going to look at who was supplying them and start to purchase those goods and services for themselves.
