Because he's better off today than he was yesterday. The fact that he's still worse off then he was before he started means nothing to him, or MAGA

Almost everyone knows this. Particularly those busy creating the fear. I’ve always said only about 20% of people are racist. Leaving 80% like me who really don’t care. Allow people safe routes. Let them make a contribution. Welcome them. Build our country.

The only people that faced any sanctions at all are British. Ghislaine Maxwell, Andrew and Peter Mandelson. As, and when, the Epstein files get released and we get real evidence of crimes, for which everyone involved can be prosecuted, I think laying it at the door of one man is a distraction
The whole China deal seems to be that China are back where they were, or slightly better off, and the USA is worse off than before. The art of the deal.
