    I really think Trump just wants some win for his ego and to present to his followers. I don’t think he will keep asking for more money, or at least we will make it clear, that we will not go along with further demands. As long as the stuff were buying is needed here and we buy it at the normal market rate I think we should do it for economic stability

      Are you familiar with the term “appeasement”? Or the children’s book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie? The demands don’t stop here and giving in to them will only embolden Trump further.
