Trump made the remarks in an interview with Fox News Radio without elaborating on what “a different level” means.
“Let’s see what the end product is, that’s what you have to judge it by,” Trump said.

Reliable China insiders hint that this round of trade talks could lead to a ‘breakthrough’
Quote:
“There’s more possibility of a breakthrough between the two sides,” said Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of the Global Times, a tabloid under the People’s Daily.
Hu has been spot on with the recent developments in the escalated trade war. Most recently, he had warned about the Chinese retaliation just hours before China’s official announcement.
A blog called Taoran Notes has been followed by analysts covering China and market participants for cues on the trade battle.
In a 1,200-word commentary, Taoran said it’s “very likely” there will be “new developments” in the upcoming trade talks.

This is not much to most folks, I get that ... but considering who we're talking about; and what's par for the course--it's HUGE!
We'll have to just stay tuned to the rest of the show ... to see if I'm really onto something. :)

Re: US / China Trade Negotiations
Just curious-
What would anybody consider to be an acceptable end state for some kind of China trade agreement?
We all know that the communists will never permit full, free trade with no barriers, nor will there ever be complete enforcement against stealing our technology.
But what COULD be the agreement that would end this junk that is killing our exports by agriculture, and throwing 25% or higher taxes to be paid by US consumers?
What would be " victory"?
