### Comment:
Honestly I never thought of it that way. My thoughts were pretty much based off what every news article says, which is that China’s economy is entering a downturn and the US economy is resilient (compared to China’s). If China did hold back and sucked it up until 2020, I wonder if the next US president would keep the trade war going.

### REPLY:
Doubt it, they would likely just revet to something similar to our last deal with an amendment to stop IP theft (I hope). I think this is really the most important sticking point for the US
