Munumbis Oh yeah what kind of deal did he make with China's recent trip?

During the state visit, Trump was simultaneously uninterested in the policy details of the U.S.-China relationship and attentive to the special touches of hospitality he wanted to extend to Xi. Xi, by contrast, appeared bemused and even entertained at times by Trump’s efforts to impress him.
Lost amidst the visit’s pomp, Trump failed to deliver on the business at hand. The White House summit readout offers no details or sense of movement on a principal objective of the visit—removing impediments to the regularized flow of critical minerals that China leveraged since Trump’s announcement of the Liberation Day tariffs.
Meanwhile, according to U.S. Ambassador to China David Perdue, Trump has offered to sell weapons to China while consulting with Xi over future arms sales to Taiwan. Such statements are too far from believable for anyone in Beijing to take them seriously. There is a risk the Chinese are concluding that Trump is so unprepared for summits that his statements lack credibility or lasting value.
