I know half of Americans read below 6th grade grade, but if you read it slowly you might notice it's not China who initiated the call was it, lol.
Xi and Trump talking already?
Thought China is going to take its sweet time. Empty shelves, let US suffer.
Looks like Trump asked and China obliged. Easy.
China has plenty of time, but imminent widespread shutdown of western industry from RE ban didn't gave Trump much time did it.
But hey, see how easy it was to get an audience once you adopt the right mindset and initiate the call to kiss Xi's ass? Begging probably won't be enough, but at least it's a start.
