A short transcript excerpt from Tom Burton's YouTube video "Who will flinch first in this economic standoff? #Tariffs." The speakers discuss US–China tariff tensions, questioning "who will blink first," noting an imbalance in trade flows (the US taking more from China) and arguing China may better weather tariffs because of experience handling similar measures during the previous Trump administration.

This article was talking about who is.
Going to blink first?
What I found interesting about the article is, you know, that.
China is probably, in some ways.
Obviously, there's.
The imbalance.
Right.
We're, we're taking a lot more from.
Them than they're we're giving to them. But China is.
Kind of knows how.
To weather this storm a little bit.
Because they've lived it in.
The previous Trump administration. Right. They live they, they work through, They've, they've come up with strategies and policies.
To get.
Around some of these tariff things. They weren't as large as they are now.
But, you know.
Can they weather the storm? Yeah, they at least they probably believe.
They can to a degree. And so.
As it says here, who's going to blink first?
