China wouldn't be so bold, unless they could count on Russia voting with them, against US, in the United Nations...
The two communist superpowers are inextricably joined together at the hip; and Trump has more money invested in China and Russia, than in America; so he's not taxing Chinese people.
His tariffs on Chinese goods, are only paid for by Americans.
The wall, he promised to force Mexico to pay for... Americans are paying for it too.
If anybody actually did the math, and gave up listening to propaganda, they'd realize...
Trump's raised our taxes more than he cut them!
It won't be long before China, Russia, Iran, and all the democratically elected governments the US has overthrown, vote to sanction Americans; based on Bankrupt Trump's continuous stupidity.
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. 1 Timothy 4:1-6

Cannabinoid receptors: where they are and what they do. Review article Mackie K. J Neuroendocrinol. 2008.
The endocannabinoid system consists of the endogenous cannabinoids (endocannabinoids), cannabinoid receptors and the enzymes that synthesise and degrade endocannabinoids.
Many of the effects of cannabinoids and endocannabinoids are mediated by two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), CB(1) and CB(2), although additional receptors may be involved. CB(1) receptors are present in very high levels in several brain regions and in lower amounts in a more widespread fashion.
These receptors mediate many of the psychoactive effects of cannabinoids. CB(2) receptors have a more restricted distribution, being found in a number of immune cells and in a few neurones. Both CB(1) and CB(2) couple primarily to inhibitory G proteins and are subject to the same pharmacological influences as other GPCRs. Thus, partial agonism, functional selectivity and inverse agonism all play important roles in determining the cellular response to specific cannabinoid receptor ligands.

"CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of the most famous compounds found in cannabis. This particular cannabinoid has a range of therapeutic applications. Let's take a closer look at what science has found that CBD does to the human brain.
43 4 Sep 2018 Cannabidiol, often abbreviated as CBD, is probably the most famous chemical compound in the cannabis plant other than THC. Whereas THC is psychoactive and produces an intoxicating high, CBD does not. However, CBD does regulate the effects of THC and other cannabinoids. The dynamic relationship between cannabinoids makes a case for combining them. Despite this, CBD still has a significant impact without the presence of THC. As CBD is not psychoactive, the effects are not as overt as with THC. To understand how cannabinoids have any impact, we must look at how the brain processes them.

To say the science of the human brain is complicated is putting it mildly. The scientific community understands more about the most mind-blowing and complicated astrophysics than they do about how the human brain works. There is a growing body of research on how cannabinoids interact with the brain. Breakthroughs were made in the 1960s by a team of Israeli scientists led by Dr. Raphael Mechoulam. They were able to identify the chemical structures of CBD and THC. Since then, the endocannabinoid system has been discovered in the human body—the system these cannabinoids interact with. There is remarkable serendipity in humans (and other animals) evolving a biological system directly responsive to cannabis.
How CBD Affects the Brain
The endocannabinoid system has cannabinoid receptors throughout the human body. These are linked to the human nervous system, which itself is linked to the brain. Without getting into very complicated neuroscience, chemicals have different reactions with different kinds of receptors. In the case of CB1 and CB2 receptors, CBD may actually dampen their response. Other receptors will bind well with CBD and trigger a neural connection through synapses in the brain. The impact CBD has on other chemicals in the brain reveals much about its potential therapeutic applications.
CBD AND OTHER CHEMICALS The 5-HT1A receptor is involved in serotonin neurotransmission. Serotonin regulates mood and this particular receptor may be linked to the mediation of anxiety and depression. CBD is thought to have anxiolytic properties which reduce anxiety. There may even be a compounding effect whereby CBD boosts the body's own naturally-produced cannabinoids, known as endocannabinoids.
How CBD Interacts With Neurons Receptors
Non-cannabinoid chemicals are also impacted by CBD. There are signs CBD disrupts opioid receptors. This makes cannabis a promising treatment for opioid addiction by altering the brain's reward mechanism. Dopamine, the chemical by which we feel a sense of reward, also interacts with CBD. Anandamide is another chemical discovered by Dr. Raphael Mechoulam. He named it after the Sanskrit word for bliss as he observed its impact on human joy. CBD however, seems to inhibit anandamide reuptake and breakdown, which increases endocannabinoid levels. CBD is also believed to stimulate the growth of neurons in the hippocampus. Enlarging the hippocampus, memory and anxiety management are improved.
