This article was written on September 24th, 2018. The article explains how the trade war going on with China is gonna affect US citizens. Basically, Trump is increasing tariffs on US products, and China is retaliating with also increasing prices. Right now we are in a deadlock, which means there is no trade going on at all, very bad. In result, Walmart prices are increasing on a variety of things such as shampoo and dog food.The citizens are gonna end up having to pay more money for what reason? Oh yeah, Trump. This source was written to inform readers on what is going on with other countries, and to warn them that prices will be going up.It was produced in the prime time of Trump’s presidency, which makes sense. It is trying to convey that America as we know it is in a lot of trouble.CNN created this source and they lean slightly to the left, but they are a major news company. The authors point of view is that this needs to stop, amd things should go back to the way they used to be.This source is important because trade with other countries is what helps America function, and things should be left as simple as possible , because we do not need any kind of war to make our world more complicated and unlivable. The conclusion that i can draw from this document is that we are in a trade war, and prices of many energy companies and industrial items will be increasing soon.This document is relevant to our lives today because one person's decisions affect how much money we pull out of our pocket to feed our dogs or fill up our car.

This is a very thought-provoking article that details the intense ongoing situation regarding tensions between the USA and China. I love how you went down the HAPPY chart when reporting this story. However, I do wish you would compare this to an event from history.
