My guess is that a huge chunk of that are 5-year treasury notes issued just after the start of the pandemic in 2020, when 5-year rates were only 0.2~0.4%.

Political arson. Trump is lighting a fire, putting it out, then declaring himself a hero.
I personally believe the goal is to prime MAGA voters for sanctions. Once the de minimus exemption ends on May 2nd US-China direct trade is functionally gone, with the void filled by Southeast Asia proxies. Trump can then claim his infinite tariffs are being bypassed, justifying the escalation to sanctions.

No, Trump's still playing a stupid man's game adding to one number that's already meaninglessly high while China has already moved on to surgical strikes. Hollywood, agriculture, non-tariff barriers, etc... China's still got Apple, Nike, Starbucks, MacDonald's, KFC, Costco, Walmart (with Sam's Club)... to chop up and to be honest, these pieces of shit absolutely need to go.
Logical next step for the 4th Germanic Reich.
As the video itself shows, it's from BRICS 2024

And the British have accused this of being racism…? Again they exposed their elitist racism because how dare China portray Americans as doing menial work meant only for inferiors…

This one looks questionable but will be happy to be wrong.
