China is not erratic and insane. China is asshole. Strategic asshole, but not insane and unpredictable asshole. China is Houston drivers: homicidal, assholish, but with a purpose -- hauling ass from point A to point B at all times. The US under Trump is Austin drivers: will stop in the middle lane of the freeway because they just now decided their exit is the one three lanes over.
I much prefer dealing with Houston drivers, because "strategic homicidal asshole" is predictable, and that allows ME to drive strategically.
This also offers opportunity. If everyone knows that "deals" with Trump are just words you say to make his ego feel good, then fuck it, make a "deal" with him, and don't keep it. What's that, Donnie, you'll drop tariffs on me if I promise to move my shoe factories to the US? Sure thing. I am commissioning a blue-ribbon panel to study the proper formation and composition of the committee to evaluate how to make that happen, with a plan to be developed in the next 4 years.
Walla. Trump proclaims victory, and he brought manufacturing back. And I go about my business as usual, except maybe I set up some pointless panel to issue periodic reports with pretty pictures and graphs to make Trump happy, and those reports mention the "Donald J. Trump Shoe Factory of American Victory" a few times.
