  1. Of course China will. The way Trump is behaving they have brought this unnecessary fight for no reason. Trump has unleashed China in a fight when there was no reason to. He has been disrespectful and a bully.
    This might be ok in certain parts of the world, however most of the planet have looked on at Trumps behaviour with disgust,
    China and the rest of the planet can no longer trust America.
    Shame on you Trump.
    Shame on Republicans for not stopping him,
    What a massive mess.

  2. China's "nuclear options is not about selling US Treasuries. It's about nationalizing, or even just threatening to nationalize, US corporate assets in China. Tesla, for example. Trump and Musk haven't thought this through.

  3. the US is isolated. Trump and yanks are softies lol already folded like a lawn chair. Yanks know their economy is crashing like house of cards. Europe stands with China. Gulf of Mexico!

  4. Selling U.S. debt would require China to convert large amounts of U.S. dollars into other currencies mostly their own most likely. This could lead to a sharp depreciation of the dollar, making Chinese exports even more expensive and less competitive globally on top of tariffs it would wreck their economy.

  5. US is already having plans to counter or face bonds sell-off. It is better if CHN does it right away. Trump will declare victory right away, mark my words

  6. B.R.I.C.S — CHINA
    *** COUNTRIES NEED. TO. REMEMBER C O V I D & WHY. DID. THE. CHINESE GOVERMENT. ALLOW CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS TO LEAVE CHINA & THE W.H.O. — WORLD HEALTH
    ORGANIZATION , COVERING UP FOR CHINA —- LAB LEAK .
    REMEMBER C O V I D ,
    INTEGRITY / TRUSTWORTHINESS ISSUES ABOUND FOR. CHINA .

  7. Germany earns 80 million per year on our military installations alone… plus thousands and thousands of german jobs. You liberals dobt want this nuclear option.

  8. They who stole or Looted America are Losing Texas has enouph Oil dont need nothing foolish freind close the Gates we have all we Need they who looted American Voters, will not be Forgotten 😢 America does not need to buy nothing where is a the American Tax the Ride is Over what a scam Remeber stolen Election scam on a World Power?Big Mistake😮

  9. China has been selling Treasuries for quite some time. So is Japan and other countries. Dump has destroyed any trust any country can have buying U.S. bonds. He has suggested we could default. Also, Dump’s trafficking in tariffs creating a world wide trader, makes any investments in the U.S. very risky, perhaps too risky.

  10. If they did that, they would have to buy something else with the dollar they got. Bringing the dollar back home would earn them nothing.

  11. China has swapped its $800Billion of private loans with some of the US $1.6trillion debt that china has with the US government, PLUS china has a US$4trillion loan of Superannuation funds which it has been spending in Africa and military and wasting… China has been defaulting for the last 3 years paying this money back…

  12. China has been defaulting for the last 3 years to pay back $4trillion in US superfund loans……………… US BONDS lol who cares… thats such a little thing to the BIGGEST economy in the world.. socialist rubbish…

  13. The Chinese are very pragmatic, they will handle the disposal of US Treasuries with care so as to not to lose value, they've dropped from $1.35Trillion to just over $700 Billion in a few short years.

  14. To be very accurate, China alone dumping of bonds is only 2% of entire market, daily transaction exceeds that $760b. The danger is when the rest also do the same, like what we have seen Japan past days. DT better be nicer to the world and knows America archille's heel.

  15. Reading the comments saying every country should sell their US bonds. It's ironic that everyones wants the US to collapse. Not understanding that 72% of the global investment are invested in the US market. If the US economy collapses, almost the entire globe economy will collapse.
