中美貿易戰不斷升溫，雙方的一舉一動都成為焦點。美國總統特朗普又於Twitter發文，指即使與中國有貿易上的爭議，但與國家主席習近平永遠是好朋友喎。
特朗普預言，中國會取消關稅措施，因為這是正確要做的事。他又指徵稅是互惠，知識產權問題亦會達成協議，他預料中美雙方都會有美好的未來。
對於敍利亞反政府據點疑遭化武襲擊，特朗普就開名指支持敘利亞政權的俄羅斯總總普京，以及伊朗都責無旁貸。
特朗普又向前總統奧巴馬發炮，指對方當時如突破限制，一早就解決敘利亞問題，巴沙爾政權早已成為歷史。
President Xi and I will always be friends, no matter what happens with our dispute on trade. China will take down its Trade Barriers because it is the right thing to do. Taxes will become Reciprocal & a deal will be made on Intellectual Property. Great future for both countries!

Many dead, including women and children, in mindless CHEMICAL attack in Syria. Area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by Syrian Army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world. President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price...

If President Obama had crossed his stated Red Line In The Sand, the Syrian disaster would have ended long ago! Animal Assad would have been history!
