the trade war with China

what about

these tariffs, i ask my

96

year old father as he works

a Qu-tip into his ear.

what?

traffic?

i don't drive anymore

sonny boy.

i don't give a damn about

traffic.

no, no.

tariffs.

were in a trade war with China.

China?

they're increasing their

tariffs on us,

and we're retaliating.

the only thing

i like about China

is their General Tao Chicken,

he says,

and their

spring rolls.

i used to tell your mother

i was going to take

a slow

boat to China,

when she used to nag me.

i'm not worried about China.

they have those

little slave

kids working around the clock

making stuff

for us, and cheap too.

i think we still have a set of China

in the hutch, but you

can't even put it in the dishwasher.

China. pfffft.
