“China has warned countries against appeasing the US in trade talks over President Donald Trump's tariffs.

… "Appeasement cannot bring peace, and compromise cannot earn one respect," a Chinese Commerce Ministry spokesperson said.

Trump’s trade war may very well turn into a war on Christmas that will ruin Christmas for a lot of kids. There is a toy store near our house that we go to frequently for birthday/Christmas presents, etc. My wife went there yesterday to buy a birthday present for one of or kids’ friends. The owner told her they were very uncertain about whether they would be getting toy shipments a few months from now. Not just that they would be more expensive, but they may not be getting their new supplies at all. He said it would be a good idea to get the toys you want right now for the holidays.
