US President Donald Trump loves to tweet, often at odd hours and to the surprise of his own cabinet. While the world has gotten used to it by now, and despite the Republicans losing the House of Representatives to the Democrats two week ago, the trade war with China shows no signs of easing. On the contrary it only intensifies. The US President doesn’t need Congress for trade policies which means that the Democrats have little power to stop President Trump from pushing through with his current approach in regards to China.
