Will Trump come as the POPE or Dictator to the 45-million-dollar birthday gift to himself?

As President Trump brings manufacturing back to the US - and closes in on trade deals with India, Japan, and South Korea - China's days as "the world's factory floor" are numbered. And Beijing is furious. In a move harking back to the Cultural Revolution, Chinese schoolchildren are again . Class time is like "China must win the China-US trade war!"

China's foreign ministry even claiming that China "won't kneel down" to the US, warning that bowing to US hegemony would be like drinking poison. At the BRICS meeting in Rio this week, Foreign Minister Wang Yi talked tough as well: "Silence or retreat will only embolden bullies."

But it turns out that - in secret - Beijing has been quietly retreating as fast as it can.
