Trump: 'So Much for China Working With Us'

President Donald Trump, who has been asking China for help in controlling North Korea, expressed frustration with the Asian giant Wednesday morning.

In a Twitter post, Trump pointed out that China's trade with North Korea "grew almost 40% in the first quarter. So much for China working with us - but we had to give it a try!"

His China-specific tweet came just minutes after one bemoaning bad U.S. trade deals of the past:

The United States made some of the worst Trade Deals in world history.Why should we continue these deals with countries that do not help us?
