Hey, I'm Kramer.

Hey, listen, I'm just trying to make little money.

My job is not just to entertain, but to explain.

So call me at 1-800-743 CNBC or tweet me at Jim Kramer.

President Trump better be a much tougher negotiator than President Xi.

Because right now we're so hooked on China, it's almost hard to believe.

That's why it's so worrisome when the president posts on true social about the negotiations, as if there are any real negotiations going on at all.

We depend on them for manufacturing, on our goods, our raw materials, that it's just not easy.

Sometimes it can't even be done. As the president said in his true social posting, our raw materials, that it's just not easy. Sometimes it can't even be done.

As the president said in his true social posting, quote,

I like President Xi of China, always have, always will,

but he is very tough and extremely hard to make a deal with.

Now, with the back after that post in all caps,

followed by three exclamation points.

Now, that's a serious analysis, especially for 2.17 a.m.

Now, if that was the only action for today, I think that everything would look a lot worse at the close.

We did dodge a bullet. Dow off 92 points as it be advancing 0.01%, and then as that gaining

0.32%. How bad is our Chinese addiction? To me, it's relentless. You know what, it's like fentanyl.
