Breitbart: The Trump administration announced on Tuesday that it would levy $50 billion of tariffs on certain Chinese tech imports, implement investment restrictions, and enhance export controls on Chinese tech on the basis of national security.
The Tuesday announcement is the result of President Donald Trump’s March 22 executive order initiated to “protect domestic technology and intellectual property from certain discriminatory and burdensome trade practices by China.” The order followed a report from the U.S. Trade Representative’s office regarding Chinese trade practices and stealing of U.S. intellectual property. read more
That will wake ’em up.
Punch them in the nose!
Not. Tired. of. Winning.
These snotty chinks are long overdue for a good rap in the nose. Don’t stop there.
Donald Trump doesn’t go along with the usual program of allowing other countries to humiliate the US. The left seems to thrive on it. Guess what Mr. Whoflungdung we had about enough of your shit.
Fifty billions is not a lot of money considering our annual trade deficit with China is all of that plus another half trillion. Anyone seen Shanghai lately? We built that. Ross Perot failed to mention that sucking sound echoing across the Pacific. We need to get out of NAFTA. Mexico and Canada — those “Favored Nations” and “Staunch Allies” — insist on keeping their back doors open to cheap Chinese parts and Chinese roll steel (that Mexico then fabricates). These US-bound consumer goods containing parts from China (or fabricated from Chinese steel), from Mexico and Canada, currently enter the U.S. tariff-free.
China is now using the denuclearization of NoKo as a wedge in their trade negotiations with us and, no doubt, play a shadowing part in our NAFTA trade negotiations with Mexico and Canada as well.
America First. MAGA.
…”a shadowy part..”
(Edit gone again?)
if you eliminated income taxation and made the federal government live off only tariffs collected then the biggest supporters of tariff increase would be those that deride the move now.
Never start playing “Tit-for-tat” with someone you know can stay in the game longer than you. More winning coming soon.
