    If you look at the Chinese press and social media no sale is expected.

    Trump has a history of announcing sales without agreement. He did it before he was president.

    Also at this point he had lied and broken promises so much the Chinese cannot rely on agreements, they can only try to not engage in non constructive ways.

    People should not listen to Trump

      I did and see the opposite. Most expect it to go through but see it as a win since they retained ownership of algorithm and the access to US market.

      While true, it’s usually self-serving ego boost. This being a fake deal would be a huge embarrassment instead.
